The modern society has undergone the fast change of the family structure and labor market. Particularly, the compatibility of work and family life became the era's agenda while the labor force participation rate of the women increased. However, the family-friendly organizational culture was not created and the job engagement of the married female workers was decreased. The married female workers complained of suffering due to the work and family conflict. This research was conducted to study a relationship between family-friendly organizational culture and job engagement of married female social workers, and secondly to investigate if family conflict affect the relationship. From the results of the study, it was known that family-friendly organizational culture has effect on the job engagement, and work and family conflict play an intermediary role between the organizational culture and job engagement. Therefore, it can be explained that family-friendly organizational culture enhances the job engagement of married female social workers, and the culture would be a good measure of the compatibility of work and family life. Based on the study, it is suggested that public relation and education need to be preceded for the spread of family-friendly organizational culture by national initiated programs. Secondly, in terms of welfare organization, related regulations and guidelines need to be prepared, and thirdly, in the view of individual respect, members of family should have their own rights to put forth an opinion grandly with firm faith of the compatibility of work and family life.

This study attempts to examine the effect of family friendly work policies on the work-family balance of employed married women with young children. While previous research has investigated the effects of family friendly work policies, the effects has often been confounded with the effects of other covariates such as worker's and workplace's characteristics. In this study, we try to distinguish the effects of the family friendly work policies from those of other covariates. We draw a sample of 131 employed married women with children under age 12 from the $2^{nd}$ National Korean Family Survey. We compare the level of work-famiy balance of the women by the type of workplace: public sector, large enterprise, medium enterprise, and small enterprise. The results of this study show that some of the differences in the work-family balance of the women working in the different type of workplace can be attributed to socio-demographic background of the women and the work characteristics of workplace. There is, however, an effect of family friendly policies on the work-family balance between those who work in public sector and in medium enterprise after controlling the effects of the covariates.

본 연구에서는 전국에 거주하는 20세 이상 남녀 총 2,000 명을 조사대상으로 한 한국소비자원 (2007)의 "국민소비행태 및 의식구조 조사"자료를 가지고 소비자의 안전추구행동을 조사분석하였다. 구체적으로, 소비자안전의식과 가정생활양식 변수가 소비자 안전추구행동에 미치는 요인을 조사하였다. 본 연구의 분석결과를 정리 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 소비자들은 자동차를 제외하고 농산물 구매에서 안전성보다는 가격, 신선도 등 다른 요인을 중요한 기준으로 고려하고 있어 안전추구행동이 낮은 수준이라고 하겠다. 둘째, 소비자 안전의식은 여성, 젊은 소비자, 가족 수가 3인 인 경우, 농산물 수입개방에 대해 중간적 입장을 취한 소비자의 경우, 미래지향적인 소비자들에게서 높은 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 대체로 농산물 구매에 있어서 소비자가 환경지향적이고 농산물 수입개방에 대해 부정적인 소비자 일 수록 안전추구행동 수준이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 자동차의 경우 남성, 미혼자, 연령이 낮은 경우, 가족 수가 적은 경우 안전성을 중요한 구매기준으로 고려하고 있었다. 대체로 여성, 미혼, 나이가 많은 경우, 가족수가 적은 경우, 환경의식이 높은 경우 술의 소비가 적었으며, 여성, 고졸이하, 나이가 적은 경우, 가족 건강 여가 지향적인 경우 담배를 전혀 소비하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 여성, 대졸, 고소득, 가족 건강지향적, 부정적 농산물수입개방 태도의 경우 수입농산물 구매에서 안전성을 제일 중요한 기준으로 삼고 있었다. 끝으로, 여성, 고졸 소비자, 여가 현재 지향적, 환경의식이 높은 소비자의 경우 안전추구행동 수준이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나, 소비자의 안전의식은 안전추구 행동에 직접적 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 밝혀졌다.

The purpose of this study is to explore the family diversity-related service experiences of Family Center practitioners under the main policy goal of recognizing family diversity set out in the Fourth Master Plan for Healthy Families. To this end, a focus group interview was conducted with 12 Family Center practitioners in multiple cities and districts who had extensive family service experiences. The focus group interview data were analyzed using thematic analysis. The analysis found that Family Center practitioners understood the concept of family diversity according to the changes in the family policy environment and applied it in various forms to the administration of their respective centers. However, while administering the family support services considering the aspect of family diversity, they experienced a lack of resources for various family service programs, conflicts between each family service goal and the family diversity-related program goal, and difficulties in identifying the recipients. To expand family diversity-related services in the future, the interviewees emphasized the need for education programs about family diversity targeted at Family Center practitioners, and family support services that reflect regional characteristics. They also stressed the need for changes in program operation methods, such as expanding family diversity education, and developing family service programs appropriate for diverse families. Lastly, they highlighted the need for mounting a publicity campaign for Family Centers, widening the target recipients of family programs, and expanding the budget for the administration of the family diversity project. The results of this study can serve as a basis for restructuring family services for the application and expansion of family diversity practices, and as educational material that can be used to strengthen the capacity of family service practitioners to plan and execute family support programs that take family diversity into consideration.
