Abstract: The problems with the five factor model of personality when measuring and predicting certain aspects of personality associated with ethically tinged behavior led to the creation of two parallel concepts to fill this gap. These are the six factor model (HEXACO), which describes a sixth factor, which is honesty-humility (honor-humility), and the earlier concept of the dark triad, which describes the influence of three subclinical personality traits, which are narcissism, machiavellism, and psychopathy. The analysis of both concepts is a major issue in contemporary psychology.

Annotation: Mobbing is a serious social problem in economically developed countries. Researches in all countries agree that mobbing exists in almost all surveyed work teams, and as such constitutes a serious problem. Reasons for mobbing are different and it affects both men and women. The seriousness of mobbing lies in its long-lasting and as well at the diverse health, social and employment consequences. Our country is missing a research in that field, so our research has to be of a exploratory nature. The aim of the proposed research is to describe and analyze the psychological occurrence, modes of expression and the most common psychological effects of mobbing in employment in the Czech Republic. An extensive research data of the interviewed employees is planned so that according to the goals will achieve optimum coverage of the relevant socio-demographic characteristics of the target population. The research will be conducted anonymously using questionnaire methods NAQ, SUPOS and socio-demographic questionnaire.
