This study analyzed the effects of wage workers' job satisfaction, life satisfaction on turnover intention, and moderating effect of employment type after the global financial crisis using Korean Labor and Income Panel Study data. As a result, we found that the higher the job satisfaction is, the lower the turnover intention. However, the higher the job satisfaction and life satisfaction are, the higher the turnover intention. This is because the more satisfied with the job environment, the higher the tendency to seek better job opportunities, or the change in occupational value that favored free work. The higher the age, the higher the educational level, and the regular jobs are, the turnover intention decreased. In addition, the interaction terms of job satisfaction, job environmental satisfaction, life satisfaction, and regular employment all showed a moderating effect of employment type. However, since the results of the relationship between job satisfaction, job environmental satisfaction, life satisfaction and turnover intention, and the moderating effect may be due to limitations of measurement variables, further study is needed.

Globally, more than 90 percent of all international commerce takes place via sea freight. In terms of container cargo volume, Busan Port is the world's sixth largest port, given its geographical conditions. Regarding geographic advantages, a cargo-working operation that met customers' demand using a 24-hour operating delivery system also contributed to the growth of Busan Port as a global hub. However, research and studies on the working conditions for stevedores are lacking, even though the port industry relies heavily on human resources. Therefore, this study identifies the awareness of the working environment by cargo-working employees at Busan Port and their satisfaction level related to their working environment, such as working two shifts in a 24-hour period.

The purpose of this study is to analyze how the satisfaction of Korea life and attitude on sending information is influenced by the information cognition rate of Korea before influx to Korea. The method used for this study was to survey migrant workers in Busan and Kyeongnam area. The results show a tendency towards a higher information cognition when the information was acquired through manpower supply agencies and media information. In addition, among the variables of information cognition, when 'socio-economical' factor was high, the satisfaction rate of Korea life tended to be higher. Also, when the 'workplace environment satisfaction' factor was high, attitude on sending information tended to be positive. Based on those results, this study presented measures for establishing information policies, such as provision of high quality information, diversification of information route which are necessary for migrant workers.

This study examines the effects of airline outsourcing staff work environments with respect to job satisfaction, turnover intention and achievement. Research results show three significant findings. First, among the four variable factors for work environment, the most influential factor for job satisfaction was 'mutual cooperation of affiliated airlines'; 'training system' was found as the second most influential variable. Second, among the four variable factors examined for work environment, the most influential factor on turnover intention was found as 'human capabilities and labor intensities', followed by the 'training system' factor. Third, 'job satisfaction' was found to have a significantly negative (-) effect on outsourcing staff turnover intention. 'Job satisfaction' and 'turnover intention' were found to have a significant effect on organizational achievement. In conclusion, it can be said that mutual cooperation between airlines and airline outsourcing firms is the most valuable factor to enhance airline outsourcing.

The purpose of this study is to examine which job-related factors are associated with presenteeism, which is defined as attending work while ill. Although presenteeism is a relatively new concept in academic research, it should be regarded as an important social issue in that presenteeism threatens employees' job prospects and quality of life as well as it causes loss of work productivity. I analyzed a cross-sectional survey of 24,571 wage workers over 15 from the fourth wave of the Korean Working Conditions Survey in 2014. Five logistic regression models were analyzed on experience of presenteeism, and work hours and private life, occupational environment, job insecurity, rewards and welfare were assessed as key predictors of presenteeism. I found that 1) work hours with bad fit with private life, 2) high level of work time-pressure, and low job satisfaction 3) job insecurity, and 4) low benefits are associated with experience of presenteeism. The findings are fairly consistent with the theory of job-person mismatch, which explains that workers tend to preserve their personal resources by going to work while ill (presenteeism) when job demands or work conditions do not match with their level of personal expectation and, thus, workers are afraid of loss of personal resources. Presenteeism influences worker's long-term health and quality of life negatively as well as causes serious social costs. Therefore, we need organizational efforts to prevent the negative effects of presenteeism on society as well as workers.

This study analyzed the determinants of the turnover intention of emotion workers and recent social issues. In particular, this study examined whether the factors that determine the turnover intention affect the quality of service. The job characteristics of emotion workers were set up as an independent variable, and the job environment, organizational culture, such as emotional labor and how it affects the workers' behavior were investigated. How the independent variables influence the turnover of workers was investigated to mediate the emotional job satisfaction. The subjects were primarily targeted by the emotions of the workers engaged in large service accommodation, Kangwon. Among the environmental factors, the job characteristics and job duties are diverse factors and internal and external factors that can affect the compensation turnover intentions. Organizational culture as a factor was the human resources culture, open culture systems, and the hierarchical cultural factors affecting turnover intention. Among the emotional labor practices that also affects the surface of conduct, sincere acts influence the turnover intention. In addition, a one hypothesis testing job satisfaction was mediated by several factors with an impact, such as job diversity. Future empirical research should examined whether temporary full-time is an independent variable factor that can achieve a more fruitful conclusion.

우리나라는 60년대 초부터 80년대 후반까지 중화학공업의 육성에 급급한 나머지 각종 산업분야에서 사용 및 생산된 유해화학물질의 환경과 인간에 미치는 영향은 거의 무시되어왔기 때문에 80년대 후반부터 각종 유해화학물질로 인한 직업병이 노출되어 사회문제화 되었다. 따라서 시급하게 이들 유해화학물질을 관리해야 할 필요성이 대두되고 이를 위한 제도적 장치가 마련되었다. 바로 이것이 작업환경측정 및 임상검사에 대한 정도관리제도이다. 작업환경측정을 위한 정도관리는 작업환경측정에 관한 정도관리규정(노동부 고시 제 92-18호, 1992, 4, 16) 에 의거 한국산업안전공단에서 현재 매년 2회에 걸쳐 실시하고 있으며, 근로자의 임상시료에 대한 정도관리는 1977년 대한임상검사 정도관리학회에서 실시한 이래 현재까지 자율적으로 계속 실시되고 있고, 제도적으로는 근로자 건강진단 실시기준(노동부 고시 제 92-9호, 1992. 4. 2)에 의거 대한산업보건협회가 현재까지 70여개 대상기관에 대한 매년 2회를 실시하고 있다. 그러나 작업환경측정이나 임상시료에 대한 결과치의 신뢰도 증대가 요구되는 현시점에서 신뢰도 증진의 중요한 요소중의 하나인 검사기기의 정도관리는 더더욱 그 중대함을 더해가고 있으나 우리의 실정이 이를 만족시키지 못하고 검사기기에 대한 정도관리를 할 수 있는 참고할 서적이나 방법이 부족하여 관련분야의 실무자들이 많은 애로점을 갖고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 여기에서는 검사에 사용되는 각종 기기에 대한 기초원리, 사용목적, 검사순서, 적용범위, 취급상의 주의, 사용하는 입장에서의 보수관리에 대해 서술함으로써 작업환경측정이나 임상정도관리 및 기타 관련분야에서 공통으로 사용하는 검사기기에 대한 정도관리를 함으로써 더욱더 신뢰도 높은 결과를 얻는데 기여할 수 있는 것으로 기대된다. 또한 여기에 소개한 기초원리나 응용분야에서 부족한 점은 화학, 물리학 및 임상병리학 등 전문서적을 참고하여 주기 바란다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of local area concentration of particulate matter on life satisfaction, by matching subjective satisfaction in the Korea Labor & Income Panel Study data with daily data of $PM_{10}$ and $PM_{2.5}$. We find that the concentration of particulate matter has a significant negative effect on satisfaction. A $1{\mu}g/m^3$ increase in $PM_{10}$($PM_{2.5}$) leads to lower the probability of choosing 'satisfaction' by 0.042%p~0.091%p(0.034%p~0.153%p) and a 1% increase in annual income per household raises the probability of choosing 'satisfaction' by 0.16%p~0.18%p respectively. To estimate the monetary value of reducing $PM_{10}$ and $PM_{2.5}$, we calculate willingness-to-pay for mitigating air pollution, which represents the tradeoff between the reduction in particulate matter and income. We find that people on average are willing to pay \108,787($96)~209,519($186) for a $1{\mu}g/m^3$ reduction in $PM_{10}$ and to pay 89,345($79)~362,930($322) in $PM_{2.5}$. This amount corresponds to 0.26%~0.50%(0.22%~0.88%) of the average annual household income in South Korea.

This study analyzes and verifies the relationship between job satisfaction by factor, organizational commitment, job satisfaction, and overall job satisfaction of working-age workers using a structural equation model. The research data used the 24th data of the Korean Labor and Income Panel Study. The subjects of the study were 8,024 workers in the production age of 15 to 64 as of 2021 among 9,132 people who correctly marked the values of the observation variables. As a result of the study, it was found that job satisfaction by factor had a positive impact on organizational commitment, job satisfaction, and overall work and job satisfaction. In addition, organizational commitment and job satisfaction were found to have a positively significant effect on overall work and job satisfaction. These results emphasize the importance of understanding and solving the unique problems faced by various types of workers in the labor market, ultimately providing important implications for organizations and policy makers to provide workers with an efficient working environment.
