There have been many efforts to identify and eliminate the direct causes of the construction accident, but many accidents are still occurring in the construction industry. The main reason for the construction accident is not because of ignorance of the causes, but because of safety insensitivity. This paper analyzes why construction workers feel safety insensitivity and how safety insensitivity varies depending on their age and work experience. A survey of 103 construction workers confirmed that systematic safety education is the most important factor in minimizing safety insensitivity of construction workers. On the other hand, economic reasons such as cost reduction were identified as the most tempting factor to increase safety insensitivity. In addition, the survey results showed that those in their 40s and 50s, the largest proportion of construction workers, have a significantly higher level of safety insensitivity than those in their 20s and 60s. These findings are expected to be valuable source that can be used to prevent construction safety accidents.

Responsible Care는 모든 종업원, 경영자 및 관리자의 환경, 안전, 보건에 대한 사고(mind)를 바꾸는 것이다. Responsible Care는 실행지침(management Practices)을 완전히 실행하는 것이 궁극적인 목표가 아니고 각 개인이나 회사가 자발적으로 지속적으로 환경, 안전, 보건의 Performance을 향상시키고 이에 스스로 약속하는 것이다. Responsible Care는 일회성의 프로그램이나 운동이 아니라, 화학 산업계가 계속해서 사회와 더불어 사업을 지속하기 위해, 화학 산업계가 스스로 만든 환경, 안전, 보건의 Performance을 향상시키기 위한 하나의 도구이며, 약속이다. Responsible Care는 화학산업계가 스스로 만든 도구이고 사회에 대한 약속이므로 환경, 안전, 보건에 대해 신의와 정직을 바탕으로 사회와 더불어 공존하는 마음가짐에 그 기본 정신이다. Responsible Care는 우리자신의 Performance를 향상시키는 것 뿐 아니라 우리의 고객 또는 다른 화학 회사들의 Performance를 향상시켜 궁극적으로 사회나 정부로부터 화학 산업에 대한 선호도를 향상시키는 것이다. Dow Korea는 CMA(American Chemical Manufactures Association)Code를 기본으로 환태평양 문화에 맞게 실행지침(Management Practices, Key Activities)을 수정한 Dow Pacific Area Responsible Care Code를 1993년부터 시작하였다. 시작 초기에 1997년 말에 모든 실행지침이 실행(Practices In Place)되도록 목표를 설정하여 생산 공장 관련 Code(CAER, Distribution, Employee Health and Safety, Pollution Prevention, Process Safety)의 대부분이 목표에 달성되어 생산 공장의 안전 사고 방지, 종업원 건강 증진, 페기물 발생 억제 분야에 상당한 성공을 거두었으며, 지금도 지속적으로 유지 관리 및 미비한 부분(CAER, 등)의 향상에 노력하고 있다. Dow Korea의 수입 판매 부분에 주로 관련된 Product Stewardship 및 Distribution Code는 여러 사업부 및 여러 지역(미국, 유럽, 아시아 등)에 위치한 담당자가 관련된 까닭에 가장 복잡한 부분이어서 많은 인력과 시간을 소비하면서 노력하고 있으나 아직까지 소정의 목표에 도달하지 못했으며, 2000년 말에 모든 실행지침이 실행되도록 목표, 실행 계획 및 조직을 수정하여 노력하고 있다.

Despite the high efficiency of nuclear power plant, people in Korea do not give approvals and supports the facilities because the risk of the accidents and incidents. In particular, the low level of safety culture is a crucial mechanism that damages the robustness of the NPP. By considering the various definitions of safety culture and analyzing the major reasons of incidents, the conceptual safety culture model is made by using Causal Loop Diagramming. For sustaining development of nuclear power, social supports, incentives and organizational learning are needed. It also requires the coordination of work schedules and the expansion of human resource for protecting the rules and procedures in NPP. Decommissioning aging nuclear power plants will prevent a serious accident. In order to promote the safety culture, Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power Corporation should disclose more information to the public and promote the internal and external communications.

This study aims to identify the influence of risk-inducing factors and safety inspection on the measures of reducing accidents among workers of building structures in small construction sites. The result can be summarized as follows: First, as for the influence of risk-inducing factors on human factors, preparation for work, disintegrating molds, taking follow-up measures, and keeping records, have statistically significant influences. Therefore, it can be said that safety inspection has a partial mediating effect in the relationship between risk-inducing factors and human factors. Second, as for the influence of risk-inducing factors on facility factors, preparation for work, and taking follow-up measures influenced significantly. This indicates that safety inspection has a partial mediating effect in the relationship between risk-inducing factors and facility factors. Third, as for the influence of risk-inducing factors on management factors, the installation of shores and risk assessment are found to have significant effects. This shows that safety inspection has a partial mediating effect in the relationship between risk-inducing factors and management factors. Fourth, the influence of risk-inducing factors on work factors was significant only in the installation of shores. This indicates that safety inspection has a completely mediating effect in the relationship between risk-inducing factors and work factors. Finally, in the relationship between risk-inducing factors and accident reduction measures, preparation for work, installation of shores, and taking follow-up measures showed significantly positive influences. In contrast, keeping records has a significant negative influence. Thus, safety inspection has a partial mediating effect in the relationship between risk-inducing factors and management factors.
