Abstract

In this research endeavor, we engaged with 70 construction safety specialists from established construction firms through surveys and interviews. The primary aim was to dissect and understand the weight and ramifications of specific cost items within the Occupational Safety and Health Management Funds(OSHMF) and Safety Management Expenses(SME). From our analysis, salient insights emerged. Within the realm of OSHMF, the cost items associated with safety facilities and the remunerations of safety managers were identified as paramount. It was observed that there are marked variations in the perceived significance and repercussions associated with diverse cost items of OSHMF. In stark contrast, when assessing the SME, the nuances in perceived weight and consequences of individual cost items were relatively muted, suggesting a more uniform viewpoint among the experts. Furthermore, our research probed the interrelationship between the significance and repercussions within OSHMF and SME domains. Notably, OSHMF manifested a positive linear relationship, suggesting that cost items of higher importance invariably had a more pronounced effect. On the other hand, the SME showcased a more subtle association, hinting at intricate underlying dynamics. The outcomes of this investigation are poised to offer instrumental guidance for enhancing safety protocols and diminishing accident occurrences in domestic construction undertakings.

본 연구에서는 건설사의 건설안전 전문가 70명을 대상으로 설문 조사와 그룹 인터뷰를 통해 산업안전보건관리비와 안전관리비의 항목별 중요도와 영향도를 평가하였다. 통계분석 결과, 산업안전보건관리비에서 안전시설비와 안전·보건관리자 임금이 가장 중요한 항목으로 나타났으며, 중요도와 영향도에서 다른 세부 항목 간에 차이가 있음을 확인했다. 한편, 안전관리비에서는 세부 항목 간에 중요도와 영향도에서 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 산업안전보건관리비의 중요도와 영향도는 보통 양의 상관관계가 나온반면, 안전관리비의 경우 약한 양의 상관관계를 보였다. 이러한 연구 결과는 국내 건설 프로젝트의 안전성 향상과 사고 예방을 위한 중요한 참고 자료로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.
