This study was intended to verify the impact on the quality of service for employees of youth training facilities. The purpose of this study is to provide basic data for improving service quality by analyzing the factors influencing service quality of youth training facility workers. Data were collected from 110 youth training facilities in Busan. The results showed that social support, emotional labor and self-efficacy had a static effect on the quality of service. Based on the results of this study, the following suggestions were made. First, in order to enhance social support, it is necessary to strengthen regular networking with other agency workers, interview with middle managers, and counseling. Second, to raise emotional labor, it is necessary to imprint a sense of mission as a youth leader. Psychological and emotional programs should also be developed and implemented. Third, in order to increase the self-efficacy, it is necessary to strengthen the administrative super vision and strengthen related education such as image making.

본 연구는 한국노동연구원에서 실시한 "일과 가족 양립 지원제도 운영실태조사" 원자료를 활용하여 우리나라 기업의 유연근로제도에 대한 수용성 정도를 실증분석한 것이다. 유연근로제도를 포함한 가족친화 경영의 기업수용성은 출산과 양육친화단계에서는 높지만, 가족친화적 경영수준으로는 확장되지 않고 있음을 발견할 수 있었다. 기존의 연구와 달리 기업 특성을 성(gender)과 시장(market) 가치에 따라 구분하여 유연근로제도의 수용성이 어떤 영역에서 높게 나타나는지를 분석한 결과 여성친화적-고시장성 기업일수록 보다 높은 수용성을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 다변량분석을 활용하여 유연근로제도에 대한 기업의 수용성 결정요인을 도출하였는데 여기에서는 비정규직 활용과 유연근로제도가 대체관계에 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 현재 우리나라 노동시장에서 큰 이슈가 되고 있는 비정규직의 무분별한 활용과 증가를 억제할 수 있는 대안 중의 하나로 유연근로제도를 활성화하는 방안을 제안할 수 있으며, 이는 기업의 효율적인 인력운영과 함께 일자리의 질도 제고시킬 수 있어 기업과 근로자가 모두 윈윈(win-win)하는 전략이 될 수 있음을 시사한다고 하겠다.

This paper examines how a social investment approach can be applied in a comparative analysis of childcare arrangements. We compared changes in Sweden, France, Germany, the UK, Japan and Korea during the 2000s, focusing on four dimensions of social investment: activation, gender equality, quality of care, and the degree of state's intervention in the family. We considered leave systems and the number of children enrolled in formal care and education facilities as indicators for labour market activation. For gender equality, women's position in employment is considered with respect to labour market participation rates, proportion of permanent employment, and wage-sex ratio. Quality of care concerns child-to-staff ratio and care provided with government quality control. The state's intervention was measured as social spending on families as proportions of GDP and total social spending. Our analysis provides empirical evidence that Sweden and France are pioneers in this arena and that the UK, Germany, Korea, and Japan are path-shifters in their care paradigms, albeit to varying degrees. Is the social investment approach an adequate paradigm for care? In a normative sense, this approach has potential. However, the following issues remain unaddressed: gender equality should be achieved through an expansion in good-quality jobs, fathers should be encouraged to take on childcare duties, and families should have universal access to good-quality childcare services controlled by the government.

Using data sets from the Korean Labour and Income Panel Study (KLIPS) for the period 2003-2015, this study shows that wages of nonunion workers are positively related to the percentage of unionized workers in the same geographic region. A 10 percentage point increase in a region's union density is associated with a 4.9 percent increase in the region's average wage of nonunion workers. It is also shown that this positive spillover effect is observed for various subgroups of nonunion workers, including women, youth, low-educated workers, small firm employees, and those employed under nonstandard work arrangements. In contrast, the average wage of union workers is found to respond insignificantly to changes in a region's union density.

I estimate the non-market effects of implementing five-day workweek controlling for the individual-job fixed effect. I find that the implementation of five-day workweek has improved an individual's subjective health status, increased the frequency of exercises, increased the probability to get education or training other than job training, improved subjective quality of life, increased spending for leisure and cultural activities, and improved an individual's satisfaction with the job and the employer. Much of the effects are due to reduction not of working hours but of working days.

농촌생활의 질의 풍요로움을 연구하기 위한 일환으로 농가 생활경영을 시점으로 한 농업겨영과 농가주부의 관계, 가사운영과 가계관리를 중심으로 살펴 본 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 농업경영과 주부와의 관련에 대해 우선 열거할 수 있는것은 생산 노동력의 분담상황에서의 주부노동의 실태이다. 전체평균에서 78.1%의 주부가 남편과 함께 기간노동에 종사하고 있었으며, 농업생활에서 주부의 역할리 매우 큼을 단적으로 지적해 주는 것이었다. 그리고 종사하는 종작업과 경영 참여의 내용은 다양하다. 그 결과 시간적으로 본 주부 담당의 가사작업은 농번기와 농한기의 시기에 영향을 크게 받고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 둘째, 가계관리상의 문제점으로 자녀의 교육비나 교제비의 부담이 거론되었고, 수입의 불규칙, 빚과 부채의 부담이 큰 문제로 지적되었다. 셋째, 가정생활의 만족도, 지역생활의 만족도는 모두 만족과 불만의 중간을 보였다. 가정생활에서의 만족도에서 평균점 보다 낮은 항목은 가족 동반의 식사, 부부대화, 내구소비재의 순이었고, 지역생활환경에 관하여는 보건소, 병원에 관하여는 불만족스러운 대답을 보였다. 넷째, 농작업의 효율화 대책은 기계화, 조직화, 공동화, 작업의 계획화이었으며, 가사노동에 있어서는 "주부의 농작업 감량대책"과 함께 "가족의 협력에 의한 가사분담","가족이 신변의 것을 스스로 한다","가사작업의 계획화"등이 요구되어진다.

The purpose of this descriptive survey study was to explore the effects of emotional labor on professional quality of life of emergency department nurses and to elucidate any mediating effects of emotional dissonance between emotional labor and professional quality of life. A total of 227 nurses, including general, charge, and head nurses, who have worked in an emergency department at university hospitals, general hospitals, and junior general hospitals located in Gyeongnam, Daegu and Gyeongbuk areas over a period of 6 months. Data were collected between December 12 and December 29 of 2015. We analyzed the data with descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and three-step mediated regression analysis using SPSS/WIN 21.0 program. The average scores of emotional labor, compassion satisfaction, compassion fatigue, burnout, and emotional dissonance were 4.50 out of 7.00, 31.62 out of 50.00, 29.48 out of 50.00, 29.27 out of 50.00, and 5.02 out of 7.00, respectively. Emotional labor had significant effects on compassion fatigue and burnout, showing explanatory power of 12% and 29%, respectively. Emotional dissonance had partial mediating effects in the relationship between emotional labor and compassion fatigue and complete mediating effects in the relationship between emotional labor and burnout. In summary, to improve the professional quality of life of nurses, it is necessary to develop effective strategies to minimize their emotional labor and emotional dissonance.

This study is to analyze experiences and perceptions of care workers for enhanced user choice since the introduction of voucher in Korea. The analysis shows that as it has increased the influence of service users on care workers'employment, dismissal, labor intensity, and so on, more and more care workers appear to experience 'labor alienation'such as weakened position in the labor domain, the sense of loss and frustration in the meaning of work, and identity confusion as a care work. Because the labor alienation felt by them possibly has a negative impact on quality of social service, it suggests to address improving service users'rights as well as protecting human rights and rights to work of care workers to provide a high quality social service.

Over the past decades, changes in economic, social and demographic structures have pushed the growth of care employment across countries around the world. Women's increasing labor force participation has squeezed the time so far available for unpaid caregiving and led to increased demand for paid care services. Population aging and increasing needs for pre-school education also have contributed to the growth in demand for care services. As a result, care workers now comprise a large and growing segment of the labor force in many countries including South Korea. But, there are not a few problems. Especially, we take underpaid and undervalued care work very seriously. care work has been generally characterized as underpaid and undervalued compared with other work in developed and developing countries alike. This study tries to show current situation of care work and estimate the wage penalty for doing care work in Korea using official employment micro-data and applying propensity matching analysis. Especially, recent expansion of social service is a big step up for Korean Welfare State. But, there are not a few problems. Especially, we take underpaid and undervalued care work very seriously. This presentation tries to show current situation of care work and estimate the wage penalty for doing care work in Korea using official employment micro-data and applying propensity matching analysis.

This study examines the job changes of the youth university graduates in Korea. The pattern of job changes get observed in the Unemployment Insurance Database. This data enables us tracing all job changes in the labor market. The average number of job youth graduates have for four years from graduate is 1.68. The more jobs youth have, the longer total tenure youth have. Youth are much more likely to change careers to different occupation or industry. They move usually into upper occupations but small establishments. They enhance the level of wage through job changes. The science and engineering graduates are more likely to change jobs than the humanity and social science graduates. The higher the level of wage they get is, the lower the probability of their job change is. Those who have good scores in Scholastic Aptitude Test are less likely to change job.
