Human Labor and its Irregular Nature as a Social and Axiological Value

Abstract

The intention of the authors of this publication was to present reflections on human labor as a social and axiological value, as well as to show various aspects resulting from its irregular nature. The above reflections show that this type of working time may be a kind of incentive for the employee and a factor motivating him to increase his effort and improve efficiency. In addition to the above-mentioned issues, the authors presented selected theoreticians' perspectives related to human work in various historical and cultural periods. Moreover, the presented analyzes show that a person's labor may constitute a distinctive social and psychological value. The authors’ intention was also to draw the reader's attention to proper time management and methods of effective time management. Learning about these methods and implementing them in the employee environment will allow for more effective functioning and rational working time management as well as any other type of time. Finally, the so-called circle of time management rules, consisting of six elements, was presented.
