한국에서 해운산업으로 배출되는 여성 인력은 년 간 800여명에 이른다. 그 중 과반수의 이하의 여성인력만이 매 년 해운선사에 취업하여 종사하고 있으나, 여러 가지 현안 사항들로 채용의 기회는 남성에 비해 현재까지는 적은 편이다. 여성 해기사의 고용기피 이유들 중 하나는 여성해기사가 실제 취업활동시 '남성에 비해 우월하지 않을 것이다' 라는 사회적 인식의 차이도 영향을 미친다는 가정하에 실제 여성 해기사와 승선 경험이 있는 선원과 그렇지 않은 선원을 대상으로 여성 해기사의 업무 성취도, 팀협력, 의사소통 능력, 직업 만족도 및 직업에 관한 책임감의 범위로 인식의 차이를 설문조사하였다.

전 세계 1내지 2 퍼센트에 해당하는 여성선원 중 상선에 종사하는 여성해기사는 그 중 6 퍼센트에 해당한다. 해운 산업의 구성 인력 중 소수라고 할 수 있으나 여성의 원활한 해상 진출을 위해 국제해사기구를 비롯하여 정부, 교육단체, 노조 및 해운선사들의 지원과 관심이 필요한 시점이다. 이에 그 동안 국제해사기구를 비롯하여 여성해기사를 위한 현존 지원 정책을 살펴 보고, 향후 여성해기사의 역량강화 및 해상진출을 위한 제도적, 정책적 요소들을 식별하였다.

It has been about 30 years since women students entered the Maritime College at Mokpo National Maritime University (MMU) and Korea Maritime & Ocean University to train as maritime seafarers. The women have been choosing a maritime college regardless of the Boarding Service Reserve System. Therefore, it is necessary to continuously study the motivation for admission, preferences for boarding, and desired career paths to guide the distinction and vision of maritime colleges. Accordingly, this study conducted a questionnaire survey on 93 women students attending the Maritime College at MMU. Of the respondents, 35.5 % said that they enrolled to become maritime officials and 30.1 % to become maritime seafarers. In addition to the current training for maritime seafarers, additional courses are required to train maritime experts. The study found that 88.2 % of the respondents thought that women's embarkation was more difficult than usual. It is considered that a systematic education program is needed for the onboard life of women maritime seafarers in schools and shipping companies. It was found that 69.6 % of the respondents preferred to embark as seafarers after graduation. After graduating from university, 32.3 % of the respondents said that they preferred to become navigation officers or engineers. It was also found that 24.7 % preferred to become marine-related civil servants / professionals, and 18.3 % preferred to become marine police. From the total, 83.9 % hoped for careers in marine-related fields. It is, therefore, necessary to organize courses and further education according to the motives for admission and preferred occupations of women students.

The shipping and port industries have traditionally been male-centered, and although the scope of entry for female mariners is increasing, the proportion of female workers is still low. However, research on career barriers and career decision levels in this industry has not yet been conducted. This study can explain the dif iculties in career development experienced by women in this industry and comprehensively explain the socio-cultural context or environmental factors to which the individual belongs in order to improve it. The purpose of this study was to derive career barrier factors and investigate how they affect career decision levels among female students enrolled in M University's Maritime College. The career barriers perceived by female students at Maritime College were derived from gender discrimination (GD), career undecided and lack of preparation (IOU), work-family conflict (WFC), lack of individual characteristics (LPQ), and lower-than-expected job prospects (LOE). As a result of analyzing how the derived career barrier factors af ect the career decision level, it was found that IOU had a significant negative effect on the career decision level. GD, WFC, LPQ, and LOE did not have a significant effect on career decision level. The study conclusions can be used as important data for career guidance and counseling for female maritime college women who want to overcome career barriers and improve their career decision-making levels.
