description | The aim of the article is to present the results of a study on the perception of accountants by Polish youth at secondary school age. The research was conducted with the use of a survey method and a questionnaire. The respondents were asked how they perceive gender, age, work (tasks), characteristics and predispositions, appearance, as well as position in the company and the social prestige of accountants. It turned out that according to the respondents, a person working as an accountant is usually a woman, in her late youth or middle age, mainly dealing with tax settlements and documents, organized, accurate, responsible and patient, dressed elegantly but conservatively. According to the respondents, the status of accountants in companies is medium or high. As regards their social prestige, the respondents perceive it as slightly below average. Generally speaking, it can be said that secondary school students in Poland have a distorted (stereotypical) image of accountants and their work. Studies on the perception of accountants by secondary school students in Poland have not been conducted so far. |
