Abstract

The purpose of this study was to suggest measures to improve safety and health training by analyzing trainees who participated in the training programs. A survey was administered to 226 trainees who participated in and completed the safety and health training programs provided by the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency. The study results showed that the level of satisfaction of employers for the training programs was the lowest compared to the middle managers and employees. Moreover, the middle managers' job competencies were increased, and they applied newly acquired knowledge and skills to their jobs. However, there were significant differences between industries. Finally, although all levels of trainee agreed on the effectiveness of safety and health training, the perceptions of employers were lower than those of employees. Based on these study results, several implications to improve the safety and health training were suggested.

이 연구의 목적은 안전보건교육에 대한 교육이수자들의 인식을 분석하여 개선방안을 제시하는 것이다. 이 연구에서는 안전보건공단에서 실시한 안전보건교육 이수자들을 대상으로 안전보건교육에 대한 인식을 조사하기 위하여 설문조사를 실시하였다. 조사 대상은 2018년 1월부터 6월까지 안전보건공단에서 실시한 안전보건교육 이수자이며, 계층별(경영층·중간관리자층·노동자층)로 균등 표집하여 총 226명을 표집하였다. 연구 결과, 교육 이수자들은 안전보건교육에 대해 대체로 만족하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 계층별로는 특히 경영층의 교육 만족도가 낮은 것으로 밝혀졌다. 그리고 중간 관리층 교육 이수자들은 교육 이수 후 실무역량이 향상되고 교육 내용을 현업에 활용하고 있다고 응답하였다. 이 부분에 대해서는 특히 업종에 따라 유의미한 차이를 보였는데, 서비스업에 종사하는 중간관리층의 실무역량 및 현업적용도가 건설업 및 제조업 종사자들보다 상대적으로 높은 것으로 드러났다. 다음으로 안전보건교육의 효과에 대해서는 모든 계층의 응답자들이 산업재해 예방에 대한 안전수칙 또는 안전규정 준수 태도가 향상되었다는데 동의하였다. 안전보건교육의 효과에 대해서는 계층별로 통계적으로 유의미한 차이를 보였는데, 경영층의 교육효과 인식이 노동자층의 교육효과 인식에 비해 상대적으로 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구 결과를 바탕으로 안전보건교육의 발전을 위한 개선 방안을 제시하였다.
