Abstract

This study is a second analysis of the 7th Korean Longitudinal Survey of Women and Families. And, it is a descriptive survey research for comparing parental and health characteristics of 2 groups of workers and non-workers. For this, it has used crossover analysis and logistic regression analysis with the subjects of mothers of preschoolers - of 697 females in total, aged between 19 and 64. Based on the result of the logistic regression analysis, we have discovered a few factors inducing the females to participate in more economic activities. The factors are as follows : baby sitters available, the more number of child care centers, the more helps of baby sitting from the females' parents and in-law parents and physical activities less than 3 times a week. In contrast, however, the more preschoolers they have, the less likely they are to take an active part in the economy. Against the backdrop, the government should develop social service systems to encourage various child care services and to foster 'child raising mothers-friendly' environments not only in families but in workplaces. All this is to improve the health characteristics of preschoolers' mothers in a more healthy way' and to strike a balance between work and family.

본 연구는 제7차 여성 가족 패널 조사자료를 2차 분석하여, 직장군과 비직장군의 양육 특성과 건강 특성을 비교하기 위한 서술적 조사 연구이다. 만19세 이상 64세 이하의 여성 중에서 미취학 아동 어머니를 대상 총 697명을 대상으로 교차분석과 로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 아이돌보미가 있는 경우, 이용하는 보육 시설개수가 많을수록, 시부모나 친정부모 돌봄을 받는 경우, 신체활동을 주 3회 미만으로 하는 경우가 경제활동을 많이 하였다. 반면, 미취학 자녀 수가 많을수록 경제활동을 안 하는 것으로 나타났다. 미취학 아동 어머니의 신체활동 확보와 일과 가정 양립을 뒷받침할 수 있는 양육 친화적 가족 및 직장문화 조성이 필요하다.
