OBJECTIVES: The aim of the article is to answer the research question: “Which resilience
protective factors do social workers working with families at risk identify within the scope of
their profession?”. THEORETICAL BASE: This text focuses on the concept of resilience in the
context of the well-being of social workers.
METHODS: Six focus groups with a total of 38 participants were conducted in the Czech Republic
among social workers providing services to families in need. OUTCOMES: The research focuses
on positive aspects of professional activity, as they may play a key role in the resilience process.
Thematic analysis yielded the following themes: (1) connectedness, (2) education and professional
experience, and (3) resources based on cooperating with clients.
SOCIAL WORK IMPLICATIONS: Among the research implications we point out the
dynamic aspect of resilience as well as the need for support from other environments to manage
professional problems, because resilience is not an individualized concept.
