Local governments need to be prepared for emergency response in order to minimize damages caused by disasters, such as typhoon and chemical incidents. In this study, we have researched and analyzed current emergency preparedness status of Korea's local governments by studying laws and policies, and interviewing emergency managers. We have introduced policies to enhance emergency preparedness capabilities of United States' local governments. These policies could be useful for Korean government in developing policies to build up emergency response capabilities of Korea's local governments.

Purpose: In this study, the effect of the government's disaster response capabilities and the legal and institutional appropriateness of the disaster management system on the operational performance of disaster management performance were verified. Method: Questionnaire survey was performed for the fire officials, and the surveyed data was statistically analyzed by using SPSS 25.0 program. Result: The main results of this study are as follows. First, the government's earthquake disaster response capability is found to have a significant effect on disaster follow-up management as well as disaster prevention preparation, which is a factor in disaster management performance. Second, it has been shown that the legal and institutional appropriateness of the earthquake disaster management system has a significant impact on disaster follow-up management as well as disaster prevention preparation, which is a factor of disaster management performance. Conclusion: The important policy implications for improving the operation performance of disaster management could be obtained in preparation for earthquakes in Korea.

This study evaluated the actual status of special needs of the hearing-impaired person for disaster response. The analysis revealed a significant level of unmet needs in disaster response for hearing-impaired person. The 5 special needs in disaster response include: 1) communication needs, which involve securing the means to make an emergency rescue request and communicating information during the rescue process; 2) transportation needs, which indicate the effective evacuation capacity and the level of training; 3) medical needs, which address the degree of preparedness for physical and mental emergency measures and the delivery of health information for rescue and first aid process; 4) maintaining functional independence needs, which refer to the level of self-preparedness to minimize damage in disaster situations, and; 5) supervision needs, which correspond to a personalized support system provided to disaster-vulnerable groups.

Recently, the society confronts unpredictable disasters and the aspects varies in diverse ways. As a pessimistic perception on the social safety starts emerging, the UT utilized actional system for disaster is viewed as a solution. Therefore, in this paper, I provided UT applied forecast prototype which is a portion of u-Gov's application services. Also, as one of UT applied policy subject, I distinguished and analyzed the differences between e-Gov and u-Gov and, finally, suggested u-Gov's reform in order to surpass e-Gov's limitation and amelioration for possible problems during prototype materialization.

코로나 팬더믹 이후 다양한 범죄 등의 증가로 예측할 수 없는 위기상황에 직면하면서 우리 경찰기관에서도 지역사회 및 기관과의 협업을 통한 지속발전 가능한 범죄예방과 대응전략이 절실히 필요하게 되었다. 특히, 증가하는 다양한 범죄를 예방 대응하기 위한 경찰인력과 장비의 부족, 사회적 약자를 대상으로 하는 성폭력범죄, 스토킹범죄 등의 재범률이 지속적으로 증가하고 그 피해가 심각해지면서 ESG정책은 더 이상 민간기업에만 국한되는 것이 아니라 공공기관 중 하나인 경찰기관에서도 그 논의가 필요한 시점이 되었다. 따라서 이 연구의 목적은 공공기관의 ESG도입 및 운영이 확대되어가고 있고, 국내·외의 지속발전가능성과 사회책임이 강조되고 있는 시점에서 향후 경찰기관의 ESG도입방향 및 정책을 준비하는데 기초자료를 제시하고자 하는데 있다.

The study is intended to examine awareness of safety as a differentiated service strategy and t to induce offer of more competitive services to the internal and external consumers in service industry of the South Korea. In the pursuit of this purpose, the typical occupations of the service industry targeted hotel employees and this study investigate the policy effectiveness of security management in Korea hotels. Specifically, this study was conducted by survey and involved major hotel(Seoul, Busan, Gyeongsangnam-do, Gyeongsangbuk-do) across the country. This survey went through feasibility study by major hotels managers. The results were as follows: Findings of the study suggested that most of disaster management stages did not have a statistically significant relationship with the policy effectiveness of security management. Only, repair stage have significant impact on the policy effectiveness of security management. This finding was found to be attributable to the fact that hotel employee would be concentrated in the tangible results of security management.

As people's living standards and expectations for life increase, by applying advanced technology in the city, to enhance the convenience and safety needs are being expanded gradually. Accordingly, so the future of the city to see a viable alternative to that the ubiquitous city fused information communication technologies, large-scale projects conducted at the national level. Sectoral Disaster Prevention is ready for sure how much the lack of response capabilities in the field for checking solution has been suggested for The National Emergency Management Agency. These results present a Sectoral Disaster Prevention response capabilities somewhat different in were identified. Through these are proposed policy recommendations about Sectoral Disaster Prevention and insufficient areas of step response capabilities and building fire protection system approach combines ubiquitous technology in the new paradigm rather than traditional disaster management, greet era of ubiquitous.

본 논문에서는 재난안전관련 근무자의 업무연속성 향상을 저해하는 부분들을 파악하고 해결의 방향성을 제시하고자 한다. 공공단체의 재난안전분야 인사제도의 특성을 살펴본 결과, 현행 순환보직 제도와 새롭고 다양한 유형의 재난위험에 대응할 전문화된 근무자의 부족이 재난안전업무에 미치는 영향을 확인하였다. 현재 문제점으로 지적되는 것은 기간이 짧은 순환 근무형태와 임기만료가 임박하여 전보 사실을 공지하는 문제, 그리고 비전문성 등이 나타났다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 부서 당 평균 재직 기간을 최소 5년 이상으로 연장하고, 정책의 지속성 및 업무 연속성을 위하여 2인 1업무제 도입을 고려할 필요가 있다. 그리고 충분한 시간을 두고 전보를 준비할 수 있도록 해야 할 것으로 보인다. 비전문성에 대한 해결 방향으로는 최근 재난의 예방과 대비를 중시하는 추세를 반영하여 공공기관과 민간부문 등 다양한 전문가들의 참여를 통한 해결방식이 필요하다. 미국, 독일, 일본 등에서 민간부문과의 협력적 재난안전관리가 성공적으로 이루어지고 있듯이 국내에서도 의사결정체계를 민간부문과의 협력적 거버넌스체계로 전환해야한다.

The purpose of this paper is to suggest policy implications for the development of climate change plan in city scale. For a comparative case study, Changwon city in Korea and Portland city in U.S.A. were chosen. Climate change plans of both cities were analysed and compared in the perspectives of framework, climate strategies, and implementation. The findings from the comparative case study are suggested for policy implications as the followings. Firstly, the framework should be more simple and clearly integrated from goal to action plans. Secondly, more caution must be exercised for the major GHG triggers and adaptation policy measures. Finally, establishment of clear timeline is the first step of leadership in climate change plan. Coordination agencies and sustainable assessment systems for monitoring each policies are essential for the successful implementation of climate change plan.

As the frequency and intensity of catastrophic disasters increase, there is widespread public sentiment that government capacity for disaster response and recovery is fundamentally limited, and that the involvement of civil society and the private sector is ever more vital. That is, in order to strengthen national disaster response capacity, governments need to build disaster systems that are more participatory and function through the channels of civil society, rather than continuing themselves to bear sole responsibility for these "wicked problems." With the advancement of smart mobile technology and social media, government and society as a whole have been called upon to apply these new information and communication technologies to address the current shortcomings of government-led disaster management. As illustrated in such catastrophic disasters as the 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami in Japan, the 2010 Haitian earthquake, and Hurricane Katrina in the United States in 2005, the realization of participatory potential of smart technologies for better disaster response has enabled citizen participation via new smart technologies during disasters and resulted in positive impact on the management of such disasters. In this context, this study focuses on the South Korean context, and aims to analyze Korean government officials' readiness for public participation using smart technologies. On this basis, it aims to offer policy suggestions aimed at promoting smart technology-enabled citizen participation. For this purpose, it proposes a particular model, termed SMART (System, Motivation, Ability, Response, and Technology).
