Abstract

The communication issue in the building construction site organization effects on the job stress of the field mangers, because the field managers are working with various members in the construction site organization. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of opponents' communication styles on job stress of the building construction field managers. As a result of this study, it was found that the job stress felt by the building construction field managers was differed according to the opponents' communication styles. In special, when the communication style of the opponents of construction field managers was an emotive style or a director style, job stress was higher. However it was a supportive style or a reflective style, job stress was lower. The results of this study are expected to help to build the site organizational management system to improve the performance of construction work in the building construction projects.

건축공사 현장에서 근무하는 현장관리자들은 조직 내에서 다양한 사람들과 함께 업무를 수행하고 있기 때문에 조직 내 커뮤니케이션 문제가 조직구성원의 직무스트레스에 영향을 준다. 따라서 본 논문의 목적은 상대방의 커뮤니케이션 유형이 건축공사 현장관리자의 직무스트레스에 미치는 영향을 파악하는 것이다. 연구 결과 상대방의 커뮤이케이션 유형에 따라서 건축공사 현장관리자들이 느끼는 직무스트레스는 달라진다는 것을 파악하였다. 특히 상대방의 커뮤니케이션 유형이 감정형, 지휘형일 때 직무스트레스가 높게 나타났으며, 지원형, 사려형일 때 직무스트레스가 낮게 나타났다. 본 연구 결과는 건축공사 성과 향상을 위한 현장조직 수행관리 체계를 구축하는데 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이다.
