Traffic congestion has become severe in large metropolitan areas by the travel behavior of employees as the low rate of vehicle occupancy and the high rate of Private auto using. In order to relieve traffic congestion, central and local government plan to implement diverse transportation demand management strategies. The governments want to know what employment types and locations in different metropolitan areas lead to the highest rate of vehicle occupancy and Private auto use. This study suggest that in large metropolitan areas, the employment locations of urban and suburban as well as the employment type of service show low vehicle occupancy. In medium metropolitan sizes. low vehicle occupancies are observed in service employment as well as in the employment locations of CBD. CBD fringe. In small metropolitan areas, a low rate of vehicle occupancy exists in service employment as well as in the employment locations of urban and suburban areas. A high rate of auto use shows not only in basic employment but also in the employment locations of CBD and CBD fringe.

This study is an empirical research to analyze how many private income transfers in Korea decrease poverty rate, to compare the effects of private income transfers' decreasing poverty rate with income classes. This study has utilised the Family Income and Expenditure Survey to estimate the poverty ratio in urban areas and Unemployment Household Survey which Korea Institute for Health and Social Affairs has investigated at 1998. Majour findins are these. First, Sizes of private transfers incomes are much than that of public transfers incomes. The rates in receiving private transfers income are ten times higher than that in receiving public transfers income among urban worker's household. The mean of private transfer income are about six times larger than that of public transfer income among urban worker's household. Second, the effects of private income transfers' reducing poverty rates are not large. After private transfers, urbarn workers' households are about 10 per cent away from its poverty line, and unemploy households are only 3 per cent away from its poverty line. Third, especially, private income transfers are hardly reducing poverty rates among extreme poverty class. After private transfers, urban workers' households which their incomes are within low 5%, are not away from its poverty line at all.

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the health behavior and prevalence of chronic disease in 5,638 city workers. Data were analyzed with frequency, percentage, chi-square test, logistic regression analysis. The results showed that the health behaviors of the subjects were high smoking and drinking, low exercise, and the prevalence of chronic diseases was high in obesity and hyperlipemia. The major influencing factors of chronic diseases were age, exercise and drinking. This study suggests that it is necessary to operate a systematic health management program for the desirable health behaviors in the national, local, and industrial fields.

The major purpose of this study was to offer a comprehensive analysis of the changing trends and causes of poverty among urban wage earners' households from 1995 to 2005. In order to do that, this study used the micro data of "Income and Expenditure Survey of Urban Households" by the National Statistical Office(NSO) and GEE(Generalized estimating equation) regression model which is know as an appropriate method for the longitudinal and clustering data. The results show that (1) the numbers of poverty rate and poverty gap in recent years are even getting seriously worse than those in the IMF crisis. (2) Main characteristics of poor are female headed, old aged, low educated households, and having atypical working position. (3) Major determinants of poverty are also related to the variables as mentioned the above. (4) However, poverty reduction effect of public transfer increased preferably in recent years.

This study decomposes the gender differences on poverty to explain the causes of the poverty gap between male- and female-headed households. In order to do this, we start from examining the extent of the poverty gap between maleand female-headed families and then conduct decomposition of poverty differences by gender using the Oaxaca method. This paper uses the (Urban) Family Budget Survey data from 1982 to 2008 and measures poverty using 50% of the median income poverty line. Major findings of this study are as follows: First, in 2008, the coefficient effect explains 70% or more of the total gender-poverty gap. Second, the trend of gender-poverty gap in the period of 1982~2008 shows that the poverty gap by gender increased in the 1980s', decreased in the 1990s', and a re-increased in 2000s'. Third, comparing the decomposition results in 1982, 1989, 1999, 2008, we found that the share of characteristic effect of the total gender poverty gap has been increased gradually over time. It means the characteristics of the female-headed households have become worse than those of the male-headed households in urban working families. At the same time, the still large coefficient effect suggests that the problems such as the discrimination against matriarchs or the lack of social support for them still play important roles among urban working families in Korea.

이 연구의 목적은 자원회수시설 근로자 및 인근 지역 거주 주민의 혈중다이옥신류 농도를 평가하고, 혈중 다이옥신류 농도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 평가하는 것이다. $2002{\sim}2004$년까지 대상 자원회수시설에 3년 이상 근무한 근로자 31명과 시설로부터 300 m이내 지역에서 3년 이상 거주한 주민 68명을 선정하여 혈액을 채취하였다. 참고 자료로 대상 자원회수시설에 영향을 받지 않는 도시 지역에 거주하는 일반 주민 11명을 함께 평가하였다. 혈액 채취 시 개인 특성에 대한 설문조사도 함께 실시하였다. 시설 근로자의 혈중 다이옥신류 농도는 평균 $2.09{\sim}66.67pg/g$ lipid, 인근 거주 주민은 $1.00{\sim}29.33pg/g$ lipid, 일반 도시 주민은 $5.29{\sim}35.93pg/g$ lipid로 측정되었다. 시설 인근 지역 거주 주민 및 일반 도시 주민 중 비 흡연자의 인체 부하량은 각각 3.0 ng TEQ/g lipid와 4.5 ng TEQ/g lipid로 평가되었다. 대상군의 특성에 따른 혈중 다이옥신류 농도 차이는 관찰되지 않았으며, 연령과 유의한 양의 상관성이 있었다.

The purpose of this study is to explore the heterogeneity of compensating wage differentials for outdoor workers, under the threat of climate change and heatwave, by region and by wage quantile. This study conducted Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition, multiple regression analysis by region, and unconditional quantile regression analysis using the Korean Working Conditions Survey, which provides individual-level information on the working environment and worker's characteristics. The implications derived from the results of the study are as follows: For most variables, the endowment effect and the price effect were greater for indoor workers, while experience and gender played a role in narrowing the wage gap; The compensating wage differentials for outdoor workers were confirmed to be 2.4% nationwide, depending on the region however, the compensating wage differentials varied from 5 times of national average to nothing statistically significant; The higher the wage quantile, the greater the compensating wage differentials for outdoor workers, and statistically significant monetary compensation was not identified for some low-level outdoor workers. This study is meaningful as an early study that revealed the heterogeneity of compensating wage differentials for outdoor workers and suggested further research on the topic.

경기도 성남시 분당구에 위치한 한국토지주택공사는 지난 2009년 10월 대한주택공사와 한국토지공사가 통합하고, 국가가 자본금 전액을 출자해 출범한 공기업이다. 한국주택공사는 전국의 300여 개의 사업장에서 주택 공급, 신도시 개발 등 국민들의 주거생활 향상과 국토 이용의 효율성을 높이기 위한 다양한 활동에 나서고 있다. 특히 주택 공급 분양과 관련해서는 보금자리 주택 건축 사업을 담당하면서 국민주거 수준을 높이는 역할을 톡톡히 수행하고 있다. 이를 구체적으로 살펴보면 한국토지주택공사는 2018년까지 150만호의 보금자리 주택을 공급한다는 목표를 세워 실천해 나가고 있다. 또 신도시 개발 분야에서는 세종시를 비롯해 부산, 대구 등의 혁신도시 개발 업무를 맡고 있기도 하다. 이처럼 국민주거 수준을 높이고 도시에 숨결을 불어넣는 막중한 업무를 진행함에 있어 근로자의 안전 보건은 경영의 최우선 가치로 여겨지고 있다. 여기에 더해 전국 본사와 33개 지역본부, 사업본부 및 사업단과 7천여 명의 임직원으로 구성된 거대한 조직이라는 점에서 이곳이 안전관리는 전국 안전인들의 남다른 관심을 받고 있다. 아울러 최근 전 직원의 안전보건 관련사항을 체계적으로 관리할 수 있는 안전보건시스템 개발이 한창 진행 중에 있어 더욱 뜨거운 화제가 되고 있다. 근로자의 안전보건을 밑바탕으로 국토 관리의 중추적인 역할을 담당하고 있는 한국토지주택공사를 찾아가 봤다.

조사연구는 소비자학에서 가장 많이 사용되는 연구방법으로 특히 통계청의 도시가계조사자료를 이용한 연구는 가계경제영역에서 활발히 수행되고 있다. 본고에서는 도시가계조사에서 발견된 문제점을 수정.보완하여 가계의 경제행위를 설명하고 예측하는데 유용하게 사용될 수 있도록 조사대상의 범위를 단독가구와 농.어가로 확대하고 소득자료의 보고를 근로자 이외의 가구에 대해서도 시행하도록 제언하는 바이다.
