20.500.12556/DKUM-93792 Duševno zdravje in delovni izzivi: primerjava med zaposlenimi in samozaposlenimi v sodobnem delovnem okolju Mental health and work challenges: a comparison between employees and self-employed in the modern work enviroment Diplomsko delo obravnava problematiko duševnega zdravja v delovnem okolju in primerja, kako se z izzivi na tem področju soočajo zaposleni in samozaposleni. V ospredju so razlike glede obremenitev, ravnovesja med delom in zasebnim življenjem, dostopa do podpore ter zaznane stopnje izgorelosti in stresa. Na podlagi teoretičnih izhodišč in izvedene ankete so bile preverjene razlike med obema skupinama. Rezultati raziskave kažejo, da zaposleni v povprečju poročajo o boljši socialni podpori, pogostejšemu dostopu do povratnih informacij ter večji stabilnosti prihodkov. Samozaposleni pa izkazujejo večjo avtonomijo in fleksibilnost pri organizaciji časa, čeprav to ne pomeni nujno boljšega ravnovesja ali manjšega stresa. Presenetljivo je, da so zaposleni nekoliko pogosteje poročali o občutku izgorelosti kot samozaposleni. Razlike so se pokazale tudi pri občutku osamljenosti, kjer samozaposleni pogosteje izkušajo pomanjkanje socialnih stikov in ekipnega sodelovanja. Ugotovitve poudarjajo, da oba zaposlitvena statusa prinašata specifične prednosti in slabosti, duševna obremenitev pa je prisotna v obeh skupinah, čeprav se njeni viri razlikujejo. Rezultati raziskave lahko služijo kot osnova za oblikovanje ukrepov za izboljšanje duševnega zdravja na delovnem mestu ter za prilagojeno podporo samozaposlenim, ki pogosto delujejo brez institucionalne zaščite. This thesis explores mental health in the workplace, comparing how employees and self-employed individuals cope with related challenges. The focus is on differences in workload, work-life balance, access to support and perceived levels of burnout and stress. Based on theoretical foundations and a conducted survey, distinctions between the two groups were examined. The results show that employees generally report better social support, more frequent feedback, and greater income stability. On the other hand, self-employed individuals experience more autonomy and flexibility in managing their schedules, although this does not necessarily lead to improved balance or reduced stress. Surprisingly, employees reported feelings of burnout slightly more often than the self-employed. Differences were also evident in feelings of loneliness, which were more common among the self-employed, who often lack regular social interaction and opportunities for teamwork. The findings highlight that both employment types bring specific advantages and disadvantages, and that mental strain is present in both groups, albeit for different reasons. These insights can serve as a foundation for developing measures to improve mental health in the workplace and provide tailored support to the self-employed, who often lack institutional protection. duševno zdravje delovni pogoji ravnovesje med delom in zasebnim življenjem zaposleni samozaposleni mental health working conditions work-life balance employees self-employed true true false L.
