Summary/Abstract: Family community is the basic environment of human life. It is in the family that a person learns the value of human work for the first time, experiences it by observing working people or performing various activities. Human work is an important component of the axionormative system of society. It satisfies the needs of human consumption, enables one to realise oneself in contact with the outside world and with other people, and also allows one to undertake life tasks. It makes a person feel that they are needed and that their life makes sense. The present article will show the role of family community in preparing young generations to properly understand the value of work. On the one hand, family should demonstrate the essence of work, its meaning, and on the other, it should teach an honest and reliable attitude towards it, but also sensitise young people to building wise interpersonal relationships in the work environment (without unhealthy rivalry, competitiveness, exploitation), and finally, it is obliged to raise awareness that “work is for man”; therefore, people are not to serve it and lose themselves in it, but to do it in a free and rational manner that befits a human person.
