The purpose of this study is to examine mediating effects of social adaptation on the relationship between employment status and mental health in a sample of marriage immigrant women. Social adaptation was assessed with Korean proficiency and the length of residence in Korea. Participants comprised of a total of 247 marriage immigrant women who reside in Seoul, Incheon, Gyeonggi-Do. The data were analyzed by the PASW Statistics 18.0 and the AMOS 18.0 software. The results showed that the social adaptation was a full mediator of the relationship between employment status and mental health. It is plausible to state that employment status may enhance social adaptation, which in turn improve mental health among marriage immigrant women. The implication of our findings is that as employment and social adaptation are important elements of mental health among the marriage immigrate women, education and social support system regarding these antecedent factors should be implemented.

본 연구는 건설기계에 의한 협착 및 충돌재해의 예방을 위해 사용하고 있는 스마트 안전관리 시스템 중 건설기계 근접 방지시스템의 재해예방 효과를 분석하여 그 안전성을 실증하고자 하였다. 건설기계 중 재해다발 및 위험성이 높은 굴삭기를 대상으로 스마트 안전관리 시스템의 유무에 따라 근로자(1,000명 기준)의 행동 변화를 라이다 센스 장비를 활용하여 분석하였다. 근로자-건설기계와 최단 이격거리, 위험구역 내 근로자의 체류시간, 위험구역 주변 근로자의 이동 경로 및 체류시간에 따른 근로자의 분포도 등 근로자의 행동 패턴을 분석한 결과스마트 안전관리 시스템을 설치한 건설기계가 미설치한 건설기계보다 근로자와의 이격거리 확보와 위험구역내 체류시간을 단축한 결과를 도출하였다. 이는 스마트 안전관리 시스템이 건설기계와 관련한 협착 및 충돌 등에 의한 재해로부터 근로자의 안전성을 확보한 결과라 분석되었다.

The purpose of the study was to analyze the effects of work experience during higher education on employment. In particular, the study analyzed the difference in employment and permanent employment according to work experience or internship. In addition, the effects of the relatedness of college major and work experience as well as internship on college graduates' employment or permanent employment were investigated. The data came from the 2013 Graduates Occupational Mobility Survey (GOMS). The study covered the chi-square test and logistic regression analysis. The study found that there was a significant difference in the employment and permanent employment among the groups classified by work experience or internship. Internship had a positive effect on college graduates' permanent employment. Based on the study results, this study suggests that policies for internship during higher education need to be enhanced. The match between employment and the field of study in college needs to be increased. Interventions and policies for the establishment of competency-based employment should be improved.

This study is to examine the determinants of the elderly poverty by using the Decision-tree analysis. In line with this perspective, this study includes individual characteristics, family characteristics, working characteristics, and periodic income characteristics after retirement as determinants for senior poverty. The study uses data from the Korean Retirement and Income Study based on panel survey and employs the Decision-tree analysis to explain the causes of the elderly poverty. As the result of analysis, earned wage has the greatest effect on the elderly poverty. Depending on status of the earned wage, there are 2 different variable groups. One with no earned wage includes public pension, education, and residence, paid employee and gender in the other with earned wage. Based on the analytical results, the study suggests measures to address the elderly poverty.

This study suggests an alternative for solving quality-of-life problems of an aging workforce by seeking ways to utilize an aging workforce in corporations and society. This research empirically analyzed data from the 6th panel data of aging. Study results are as follows. First, it was confirmed that job satisfaction of aging manpower plays a mediating role in the relationship between quality of life and the job characteristics of an aging workforce. Second, it was found that the wage level of regular workers had a significant effect on job satisfaction and quality of life, and the job satisfaction of regular workers was mediated between wage level and quality of life. On the other hand, the wage level of non-regular workers did not have any effect on job satisfaction and quality of life. The results of this study suggest the necessity for companies to recognize the use of an aging workforce to improve social value. Furthermore, our results provide implications for domestic firms and government policymakers on how to use a domestic aging workforce and how to utilize regular and non-regular workers.

The purpose of this study was to examine the oral health care and oral health awareness of some laborers. Out of them, 220 workers were selected from K motor company in Hwaseong, and the other 180 workers were selected from D automobile company in Bupyeong. The findings of the study were as follows: As for daily toothbrushing frequency, the largest number of the laborers investigated(44.0%) brushed their teeth three times a day. Smoking made a significant difference to that($x^2$=19.00, p<.01). Concerning the use of oral hygiene supplies, 41.3 percent put oral hygiene supplies to use. There was a significant difference in that aspect according to gender($x^2$=9.20, p<.01). Regarding scaling experience, the largest group(37.3%) had their teeth scaled twice or more, and their scaling experience significantly varied with gender($x^2$=8.60, p<.05), age($x^2$=20.07, p<.01), academic credential($x^2$=11.88, p<.01) and the presence or absence of systemic diseases($x^2$=8.19, p<.05). In relation to oral diseases, the greatest group(27.8%) had dental caries. By gender, the female workers had more dental caries or the more swollen gums than the males, and the gap between the two was significant($x^2$=13.65, p<.05).

This paper empirically estimates the decision of aged workers related to the retirement decision. Using the supplemental survey for aged people of the Korean panel data set, the paper analyses the correlation between the retirement decision of middle-aged people (aged 50 years or older) and personal characteristics and job characteristics of main jobs that aged people had worked, particularly focusing on the mandatory job retirement regulation and its regulation of retirement ages. The empirical results show that the regulated retirement age is more important than the existence of mandatory retirement system in related to the workers' retirement decision.

This paper examines the changes over lime in union relative wage effects during the period of 1988 and 2007. The union wage premium was 3.4 percent in average during the last 20 years. It has fallen in the boom years up to the mid-1990s, but has rapidly risen since the Asian financial crisis of 1997. Time series evidence suggests that the union wage premium is counter-cyclical, which means that it responds to economic conditions with a reverse direction. There has been also a fast increase in the unadjusted wage gap relative to regression-adjusted wage gap during the last 10 years in particular, implying favorable changes in the selection of workers into unionized companies.

Data from Panel Survey of Employment for the Disabled(4th year, 187 workers) was used for analyzing the difference between hearing aid users and nonusers for their job satisfaction and daily life satisfaction. The analyses result shows that there are no significant differences in both job satisfaction and daily life satisfaction between hearing aid users and nonusers. However, job satisfaction of hearing aid users has a positive role in daily life satisfaction. Although hearing aids to the hearing impaired played very important role, it was thought to be resulted that some influence factors such as the increase of using IT devices and the expansion of communication support services weren't applied because of the nature of the panel data. These limitations of the study and implications are presented at the conclusion.
