| Description | The paper aims to evaluate the social impacts of a selected social enterprise. The Social Impact Navigator method was used to achieve the goal. Based on this tool, which was conducted in the form of a questionnaire survey, assess the success of selected activities of the social enterprise. Before-after comparison, Target-actual comparison and Comparison between target groups methods were used to collect data in the questionnaire survey. Based on the results of the questionnaire survey, it can be stated that a social enterprise means for its employees not only job security and constant earnings, but also a certain form of personal development, finding new friends and community. The conclusions from the research showed that the net income of most respondents after starting a business increased and helped most of them to solve a difficult life situation or execution. Respondents evaluated the scope of work positively, they like to go to work and most of them would like to stay at work for more than three years. The positive social impact is the trust of employees in their managers and the management of the social enterprise, which may also be the reason why they like to go to work and that most want to increase the number of hours worked after the first year of work in the company. Another motivation is financial reward. |
