Abstract

This study aimed to examine safety consciousness and practice of safety behaviors in new police officers and investigate the relationship between them. The subjects were 81 new police officers who understood the purpose of this study and agreed to participate. The collected data were analyzed by frequency, descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson's correlation using the SPSS 22.0 program. The results of the study show that the safety consciousness of subjects was as high as 4.29 points. On the other hand, practice of safety behavior was moderate at 48.71 points. Fire safety consciousness was found to be different according to age and education level, and environmental safety action was significantly different according to gender and residence. Safety consciousness showed a significant correlation with practice of safety behavior. Based on the results, it is necessary to develop and apply more effective and practical safety related education for police officers in addition to technical and institutional aspects in order to promote safety awareness and safety behavior practice.

본 연구는 신임 경찰공무원으로서 교육기간 중인 신임 경찰공무원 81명을 대상으로 안전의식과 안전행동 실천과의 관계를 파악하여 경찰공무원들의 안전의식과 안전행동 실천을 향상시키기 위한 방안을 모색해 보고자 수행되었다. 연구대상은 연구의 목적을 이해하고 연구 참여에 동의한 대상자를 편의 표집하였으며, 90명이 표집되었고, 이 중 81명의 자료를 최종분석에 이용하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 22.0을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과, 대상자의 안전의식은 4.29점으로 높은데 반해 안전행동 실천은 48.71점으로 중간정도로 나타났다. 화재안전의식은 나이와 교육수준에 따라 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 환경재난안전행동 실천은 성별과 거주지역에 따라 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 안전의식은 안전행동 실천과 유의한 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 국민의 안전을 담당하는 경찰공무원들의 안전의식과 안전행동 실천을 파악해 보았으므로 본 연구의 내용을 바탕으로 경찰공무원들의 안전의식과 안전행동 실천을 증진시키기 위해서 기술적 측면과 제도적 측면의 지원과 더불어 이들을 위한 보다 효율적이고 실질적인 안전관련 교육의 개발 및 적용이 필요하다.
