Abstract

The purpose of this study was conducted to investigate the relationship among working conditions, health status and well-being of door to door deliverers as well as to identify the factors influencing well-being. Study participants of 248 door to door deliverers were collected from the 2014 Korean Working Conditions Survey. Data were analyzed using the SPSS 24.0 statistical program. As a results, the factors influencing well-being of door to door deliverers were musculoskeletal work-related risk, working condition satisfaction, work life balance, and subjective health status and these variables explained 23.9% of well-being. Based on these findings, programs that develop working condition and health status are necessary for door to door deliverers to well-being.

본 연구는 국내 택배원들을 대상으로 근로환경, 건강상태 및 안녕 간의 관계를 파악하고, 안녕에 영향을 미치는 요인을 확인하고자 실시하였다. 연구의 자료는 제4차 근로환경조사를 이용하여 총 248명의 택배원을 대상으로 SPSS/WIN 24.0 프로그램을 사용하여 분석하였다. 자료의 분석은 기술통계, t-test, ANOVA, Scheff? test, Pearson correlation coefficient, multiple regression analysis로 분석하였다. 연구결과, 택배원의 안녕에 영향을 주는 요인은 근골격계 작업위험, 근로환경만족, 일과 삶의 균형, 주관적 건강상태이었고 이들 영향요인에 의한 설명력은 23.9%이었다. 본 연구결과에 근거하여 택배원의 안녕을 위한 근로환경을 조성하고, 건강을 향상시키기 위한 프로그램의 개발이 필요하며, 이들의 안녕을 증진시키기 위한 구체적인 중재 프로그램을 개발하고 제공하는 방안이 모색되어야 할 것이다.
