W artykule omawiane są aktualne przepisy prawne regulujące zadania i obowiązki kuratorów sądowych, jak również błędne rozumienie roli kuratorów sądowych w środkach masowego przekazu, wśród pracowników innych instytucji oraz podopiecznych kuratorów. Autorzy opisali kilka najistotniejszych różnic w pracy z jednostką oraz jego środowiskiem pomiędzy kuratorami zawodowymi, pracownikami socjalnymi i funkcjonariuszami policji. Podkreślili, że zrozumienie różnic w zakresie obowiązków, jak również podjęcie efektywnej współpracy, to podstawowe czynniki mające wpływ na efektywność oddziaływań resocjalizacyjnych.

The article discusses the question about a functional model of family guardianship, shaped in practice by provisions of act of 27 July 2001 on court guardians and probation officers. It has been eight years since the act was passed. It is a time long enough to critically review how provisions of the said act function in practice and to evaluate if they have a positive influence on the model of family guardianship. While formulating assumptions to the empirical study of these problems, it was accepted that the model of guardianship can be determined by the method of guardians’ work. The method varies according to if a guardian is a professional guardian or a social worker. The method is also determined by the personal characteristics of a minor, their family situation and environment. The way of supervision over minors is another factor determining a guardian’s work. Polish guardianship is partly professional and partly social service . It results from the act of 27 July 2001 on court guardians and probation officers. Verification how the model assumptions are realised in practice was the first stage of the research. Subsequent stages included research on differences in task performance by professional and social guardians, and in the way of supervision. The study was conducted between March 2008 and November 2009. Guarded minors, their parents were questioned in a questionnaire, guardians themselves were interview. Moreover, court files of guardianships in question were examined. 292 questionnaires were distributed among randomly selected minors supervised by guardians from District Court in Poznań. Out the number of questionnaires 225 could be used. Court files of the minors who returned their questionnaires were examined. The study included 102 professional and 123 social guardians. Data obtained from questionnaires were verified against 45 interviews with professional and 50 social guardians from the District Court in Poznań. The final stage was statistical analysis of the obtained results. The analysis of the professional / social model of guardianship was based on statistics and official documents. They prove that the model, contrary to premises of the act of 27 July 2001 is still rather a social / professional one. As of the end of 2008, there were 2,726 professional and 13,428 social guardians. In the light of the above, it was interesting to compare the methods of work of both groups, particularly methods of their supervision. The comparison can be summarised as follows: 1. Analysis of time spent over activities and the proportion of supervision of minors in the total work time leads to a conclusion that no activity was a predominant one in either of the groups. Guardians’ work cannot be categorised as exclusively educational, controlling, assisting or administrational, it has rather a mixed character.

This report devoted to presenting the probation system in Poland together with the duties performed by probation officers is made up of two chapters. In the first chapter all primary legal acts regulating the institutions of the probation officers were discussed, also with the functions they perform in the system of criminal justice. In the second chapter, results of research conducted in all court districts in Poland in 2002 were presented. Both, the analysis of legal regulations, as well as the research, have been conducted after the implementation of the basic reform in Poland, yet there is still a lot to be done organisation wise, i.e. enlarging the number of probation officers, improving their essential preparation as well as implementing modem and effective forms of activity.       In the first chapter, where the legal bases of probation officers are discussed, the most important legal acts were mentioned first. Their number is quite substantial, since in the nine laws there are regulations concerning the socio-legal status and duties of probation officers. In order to indicate the most significant of them the following cannot be omitted:       The Penal Code of 1997 which regulated matters concerned with probation officers performing a number of supervisory forms (including probation);       The Executive Penal Code of 1997 by means of which piobation officers were given a rank of one of the important organs responsible for executing punishments and means of punishment. These tasks have been extended in order to grant the probation officers: executing the punishment of restriction of liberty and substitutive penalty ‒ community service, and also certain duties have been precised concerned with executing the punishment of deprivation of liberty and providing the post penitentiary help.        The law on the organisation of law courts (dated from 2001) in which only few articles are devoted to probation. They are, however, immensely important because they helped to precise this system, constituting that probation officers are an autonomous organ operating within the judiciary system, meaning by that regional and district courts, towards which presidents of the law courts and judges occupy supervisory and controlling positions. Simultaneously, the professional and social character of the probation officer has been confirmed in that law.       Another very important legal act is the law of 1982 on the procedures in juvenile cases (with later changes, especially with a very thorough amendment of 2000) which regulates the use of probation (family courts) in cases of defining the supervisory methods or reformative for the juveniles.       Amongst the discussed laws one, from 2001, about the probation officers is of a special significance. This law has almost a pioneer character. It has been created by the Polish Parliament from the initiative of probation officers and with their considerable participation. While enacted from the beginning of 2002, it has normalised in a complex way the socio-professional status of probation officers and precisely settled the location, organisation and the duties ofthe probation service in the judiciary system.         In this report laws and obligations of probation officers have been discussed, together with their calling and prospects for promotion, as well as competence connected with performing duties foreseen in the law of probation officers, and other laws, especially in the Penal Code, the Executive Penal Code, Code of Penal Procedure and in the Civil Code.        The bills conceming the probation service and the persons of probation officers, are an additional documentation to the executive acts, to the regulations and orders of the court. In example we can mention one of the most significant regulations, created by the Minister of Justice in 2003, in matter of a detailed executing of the authorities and obligations of probation officers.        In the second chapter the activity of probation officers in 2002 has been presented, in the light of the research results. They were conducted by sending a questionnaire to all 40 court regions (all together 150 questionnaires, part of which has been filled in in groups). It needs to be stressed at this point that amongst the questions none of the issues which could be called stressful were taken up. The research included 50 different issues, amongst which the following should be discussed: - kinds and number of performed interviews by the probation officers during the time of criminal proceedings and later of executing, - executing of measures to examine a convicted offender in case of conditional discontinuance of legal penal proceedings, a conditional suspension of penalty execution, a conditional release from serving the full sentence, - the content of adjudged and executed guardianship, in other words what is the character of probation officers’ contacts and work with persons under their ward, - ęxecuting of penalty of imprisonment and community service, - activity in the area of executing the penalty of imprisonment, - the difficulties in the work of probation officers, - opinions of probation officers concerned with cooperation with social workers as well as in reference to the significance of specific purposes of penalty.        It is difficurt to summarise the research results. Therefore, only for the purpose of a small illustration, the following conclusions can be  mentioned: - probation officers' opinion about their insufficient number (there is about 2000 professional probation officers for adults) in order to be effective in the assigned roles, - the legal system seems to have achieved a desired state, - supervisions performed by probation officers do not comply with all the obligatory (i.e.- caring - job finding); however, the controlling functions over the sentenced under supervision seem to be accepted as satisfactory.

Quality of life of probation officers Feeling the quality of life and chosen determinants - inspection of examinations The article is concentrating on the subject matter of the quality of life of probation officers with particular reference to the analyses of meaning of chosen factors shaping her. Besides analysis of literature connected with satisfaction from living as the essential condition of the welfare and characteristics of the work of the probation officer, findings were also presented own. They conducted research in teams of the probative court service by regional courts in the area of the jurisdiction of Circuit Court in Gdańsk. Choice of the court circle was intentional and 73 KSS officers took part in them. Diagnosing the quality of life of officers of the Probative Court Service as well as verifying was the subject of the research relations between variables sociodemographic and organizational and with level of practical satisfaction. Examinations showed that above all social relations and their quality, the sense of security, character of the performed work as well as a lifestyle and the level of practical aspiration influenced the quality of life of probation officers. Probation officers are happier from the whole of Poles, in spite of carrying peculiar professional obligations out by them. They aren't diversifying the level of satisfaction from the life into the significant way predyktory socjodemograficzne and organizational. Findings are showing among others that probation officers which more often work in the environment of charges, are de facto more satisfied than, the ones which perform their duties mainly in the seat of the court.

Artykuł koncentruje się na tematyce jakości życia kuratorów sądowych ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem analizy znaczenia wybranych czynników ją kształtujących. Obok analizy literatury związanej z satysfakcją z życia jako podstawowym warunkiem dobrostanu i charakterystyki pracy kuratora sądowego, przedstawione zostały również wyniki badań własnych. Badania przeprowadzono w zespołach kuratorskiej służby sądowej przy sądach rejonowych w obszarze właściwości Sądu Okręgowego w Gdańsku. Wybór okręgu sądowego był celowy i wzięło w nich udział 73 funkcjona¬riuszy KSS. Przedmiotem badań było zdiagnozowanie jakości życia funkcjonariuszy Kuratorskiej Służby Sądowej a także zweryfikowanie zależności pomiędzy zmiennymi socjodemograficznymi i organizacyjnymi a poziomem satysfakcji życiowej. Badania wskazały, że na jakość życia kuratorów sądowych wpływają przede wszystkim relacje społeczne i ich jakość, poczucie bezpieczeństwa, charakter wykonywanej pracy a także styl życia i poziom aspiracji życiowych. Kuratorzy sądowi są szczęśliwsi od ogółu Polaków, pomimo wykonywania przez nich specyficznych obowiązków zawodowych. Poziomu satysfakcji z życia nie różnicują w istotny sposób predyktory socjodemograficzne i organizacyjne. Wyniki badań pokazują między innymi, że kuratorzy sądowi, którzy częściej pracują w środowisku podopiecznych, są de facto bardziej usatysfakcjonowani, niż ci którzy wykonują swoje obowiązki głównie w siedzibie sądu.
