Abstract

The Republic of Korea has a more rapidly aging society than any other country in the world. In order to prepare for the attendant challenges, this research provides basic data for policies related to aging ship officers, analyzing the relationship between elderly ship officers and marine accidents. The data used here spans 11 years, from 2006 to 2016, and the survey and regression analysis were conducted only on ship officers, excluding crew. As a result of this research, first, it was found that the number of employed ship officers older than 60 has increased 2.7 times over the past 11 years and the range of this increase was larger than for other age categories. Second, the number of elderly ship officers disciplined for marine accidents increased by around 2.6 times. Third, elderly ship officers had around 1.5 times the rate of marine accidents compared to non-elderly ship officers. Fourth, as a result of conducting regression analysis between the number of employed elderly ship officers and the number of officers disciplined, the degree of explanatory power of elderly ship officers for disciplined officials was 75.1%. Since our society will age quickly, policies such as license renewal education for elderly ship officers and regulation enforcing the quality of renewal will be needed.

우리나라는 세계에서 가장 빠르게 고령화 사회로 접어들고 있다. 본 연구는 급속한 고령화 사회를 대비하기 위하여 고령 해기사와 해양사고와의 관계를 분석하여 고령화되어 가는 해기사 정책에 기초 자료를 제공하고자 한다. 수집한 데이터는 2006년부터 2016년까지 11년간이며, 부원을 제외한 해기사만을 대상으로 현황 조사 및 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과 첫째, 60대 이상의 고령 해기사의 취업자 수는 지난 11년 동안 약 2.7배 증가하여 증가 추이 폭이 다른 연령대 보다 큰 것으로 조사되었다. 둘째, 해양사고로 징계를 받은 고령 해기사사는 약 2.6배 증가 추이를 보였다. 셋째, 고령 해기사는 비고령 해기사보다는 해양사고율이 약 1.5배 높은 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 고령 해기사의 취업자 수와 징계자 수 간에 회귀분석을 실시한 결과, 고령 해기사 취업자 수가 고령 해기사 징계자 수를 설명하는 설명력의 정도가 75.1 %로 나타났다. 고령화 사회가 신속히 진행될 수 있으므로 고령 해기사 면허 갱신 교육과 갱신 자격을 강화하는 규정 등의 정책이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.
