The timely execution of official duties by a social worker guarantees effective assistance to people in need. Such an attitude to their activities has a beneficial effect on the atmosphere within the team, the ability to work and the interests of employees. The duties of a social worker must be carried out in good faith and clearly. In many respects, not only the general condition of the ward, but also his life often depends on the timeliness of assistance.
Defining criteria
To fulfill the duties of a social worker, it is not enough to have certain skills or knowledge. An employee needs to possess certain personal qualities. Formed moral and moral beliefs, objectivity in assessing the problems of the ward, honesty, tact, fairness, attentiveness, creative thinking, sociability, adequacy of self-esteem, tolerance, humanity, willpower, kindness, patience - this is not the whole list of qualities that should be endowed Social worker.
Methods used in activities
The duties of social workers are not only to provide the necessary assistance to the wards. For the most effective implementation of their activities, employees are instructed, in accordance with the Instruction, to develop and implement various methods that allow studying problems more deeply and in detail, and choosing the best means to solve them. Thus, a social worker in a school whose duties are related to helping children should, among other things, act as a consultant and, in some way, a teacher. Using the educational approach in his activities, the employee gives recommendations, teaches demonstrations and modeling the right behavior, uses role-playing games, establishes the interaction between the student and the teacher. Of particular note are the responsibilities of a social worker in a hospital.
In this case, on his shoulders lies a great responsibility. A person who is in a medical institution requires maximum sensitivity, care and help. In this case, the social worker not only fulfills his duties in servicing the ward. He also plays the role of a supporter or mediator in overcoming the disorganization of personality, apathy in those cases when it is not possible for a sick person to do this on his own.The facilitative approach is aimed at explaining the situation, encouraging and focusing on the mobilization of available internal resources of the ward. During the recovery or rehabilitation period, this is fundamental. There is also an advocate approach to social work. In this case, the employee acts as a representative from the ward or a group of persons in need. In this case, the duties of a social worker include, among other things, assistance in putting forward arguments and selecting reasonable charges.
Employee Capabilities
The rights and obligations of a social worker are two categories that are closely related. Using his authority, an employee can effectively carry out their activities, the purpose of which is to timely help those in need. The rights of the social worker are established in articles 1, 379-380, 353-369, 209-231 of the Labor Code. Also, its capabilities are defined in the collective agreement and the rules of the CSO.

- Involve relatives and relatives in providing assistance that goes beyond the limits established by the Instruction.

International practice
Summarizing all of the above, we can conclude that they form the basis of the activities that a social worker performs, responsibilities. Ukraine, Russia and many other countries are participating in a large-scale humanitarian program to eradicate poverty, provide primary education, and provide stable support to the most disadvantaged groups. As the experience of foreign countries shows, the need for multifaceted, comprehensive social work is especially high in times of crisis. At these moments, there is a significant deterioration in the well-being of most citizens. Ukraine, like Russia, has experienced such periods more than once in its entire history. However, the government of these countries always strives to eliminate the problems that arise. A special role in the implementation of this task belongs primarily to the social protection service.
State role
In the matter of providing citizens with real help, the state today takes a secondary, secondary position. At the same time, a social worker, on the one hand, serves people. It helps to overcome a particular problem. On the other hand, he is also in the service of the state. Power through CSO employees reduces social tension. Frankly speaking, the state, using a social worker, "calms" the needy population. In this case, the employee is in a rather difficult situation. By virtue of a duty — professional and human — the social worker acts primarily in accordance with the principle of humanism. Along with this, it is the fulfillment of the state task of maintaining equilibrium in society.
Finally

Only in this case can it be considered a worthy implementer of the set state goals. The skills and knowledge that a social worker possesses, in combination with his individual qualities, should be assessed using appropriate methods. The analysis of the results, the correction of deficiencies, and the filling in of the missing information will undoubtedly contribute to a more efficient performance of one's duty. The desire for improvement is manifested not only in the desire to acquire more extensive practical experience, theoretical knowledge.Equally important is the improvement of personal qualities, overcoming shortcomings, especially those that adversely affect his activities. The individual qualities of the employee act as the basis for successful interaction with the ward and are considered an essential condition for his professional suitability.
