I estimate the non-market effects of implementing five-day workweek controlling for the individual-job fixed effect. I find that the implementation of five-day workweek has improved an individual's subjective health status, increased the frequency of exercises, increased the probability to get education or training other than job training, improved subjective quality of life, increased spending for leisure and cultural activities, and improved an individual's satisfaction with the job and the employer. Much of the effects are due to reduction not of working hours but of working days.

현대는 질높은 삶을 추구하기 위하여 노동환경의 변화와 더불어 주5일 근무제도의 확산과 웰빙(Well-Being)문화에 대한 시대적 분위기를 타고 레저와 여행에 관심이 고조되고 있다. 그러나 휴가의 계절, 여름을 맞이하여 긴장을 풀고 여유를 즐기다 보면 예기치 못한 각종 사고를 당하게 된다. 흔히 일어날 수 있는 응급상황에 대해 적절히 대처할 수 있는 응급처치법을 알아본다.

이와 같은 변화를 종합하여 보자면, 패션의 전반적인 흐름인 캐주얼 웨어와 스포티룩의 확산과 아울러 이러한 흐름이 더욱 세분화된다는 것으로 요약할 수 있겠다. 즉 같은 캐주얼웨어 안에서도 travel wear, town casual, outdoor wear등으로 나누어 질 것이고 또한 스포츠 웨어도 일반적인 체육활동을 위한 의복뿐만 아니라, 특정한 스포츠에 가장 적합한 전문 스포츠웨어가 개발될 것으로 예측된다. 그와 아울러, 정장은 더욱 격식과 품위를 강조하는 쪽으로 진행될 것으로 예상된다. 이러한 변화는 우리 사회의 의생활이 다양화되고 세분화되며, 서구의 TPO(time, place, occasion) 개념에 충실한 상황으로 전개되는 것이라고 할 수 있다. 그러나, 이 모든 예측은 주5일 근무제의 도입에 따라 많은 국민들이 여가활동을 증가할 것이라는 가정을 기반으로 하고 있으며, 따라서 새로운 제도 아래서 오히려 근무나 공부시간을 늘어나는 등의 예상치 못한 변화가 일어나는 경우에는 이런 변화가 일어나기는 어려울 것이다.

According to the recent systemic changes such as construction market reduction, five days per week system, introduction of construction duration reduction bidding system and post-construction sale system, the bidding competition have been enhanced. However, there are many construction schedule risks which could delay construction completion. Without the proper identification of construction schedule risks and the structured construction schedule risk management, the competitive advantages of construction project could not be made. Previous researches to solve the problem have been focused on the construction schedule categorization, construction schedule management, and the system development to manage the construction schedule risk. Therefore, this study selected the reinforeced concrete construction as the studied work due to the major impact characteristics on the total construction duration and the quite accident rate, and then proposed the real construction schedule risks of reinforced concrete construction and the construction risk management method based on the previous studies, many times of expert interviews and brainstorming.

In Korea, five days per week system, duration reduction bidding system, and post sale system have recently stimulated an interest in productivity improvement in construction project. However, analysis result of productivity in Korean construction industry found that the productivity is too low. APC (Architectural PC) is alternative of reveal wall and parapet in apartment housing prcjects and is used abroad broadly because of duration reduction for productivity improving. APC is used as external curtain wall in Dubai, North America, and Southeast Asia. Therefore, it is proposed that necessary to Introduce APC in Korea. The objective of this study is to draw up introduction of APC in apartment housing projects. We analysed the feasibility of the use of APC. The survey results reported that APC would be able to improve the productivity in the eight productivity factors.

German working hour law of 1994(Arbeitszeitgesetz) provides maximum working hour as 8 hours a day and 48 hours per week. The law provides that minimum 11 hours rest-time is required between the end of a day's work and the beginning of the next day's work. Namely, the hour that the workers are put under commanding of the user is restricted within 13 hours per day. In the meantime, article 5, 7, 14, and 15 of the law have some letting the exceptional provisions regarding the working hour and rest-time of flight crew, and 2nd administrative order for the aviation transportation business owner, which is established based on such exceptional provisions(2.DV LuftBO), provides the working hour and rest-time of flight crew quite in detail. The administrative order is detailed quite regarding block time, flight working hour, and rest-time. So, it does not need to interpret additionally. Airlines in Korea should observe the both Labor Standard Act applying to general workers and Aviation Act focused on flight crew, so it is difficult that airlines manages working hour and rest-time of the flight crew efficiently. Therefore, it is desirable that our country refers to and considers adopting this legislation method of Germany which regulates working hour and rest-time of flight crew in detail in the 2.DV LuftBO.

The purpose of this study was to understand the practice experience of social workers in foster care center. This study applied a qualitative study and selected 7 social workers(4 middle-level managers and 3 in-line workers) who have worked for central and regional fostercare centers. We carried out individual interviews with them and conducted thematic analysisbased on data gathered from the individual interviews. We were able to grasp significantissues in foster care practices from analyses. The results of data analysis consisted of 4 themesand 15 sub-themes. The significant themes were 'policy objectives distanced from reality, unknown institution', 'loose network, missed service system', 'too much work, too many cases', 'excluded biological parents' roles, limited foster parents' roles'. Finally, the implications of thisstudy findings for child welfare policy and practice guidelines were discussed to improvefoster care centers.

This study investigates why some female workers come to decide to leave work after their taking parental leave and subsequently classifies their resignation backgrounds into four ideal types. The current debates on parental leave have mostly focused on clarifying the factors that influence on workers' usage of parental leave. But given that the final goal of parental leave is to help workers return to work after temporary rest for parenting, it is very important to inquire why some workers fail in reverting to their companies after parental leave. Based on in-depth interviews with 8 female workers who leave work after parental leave, this study analyses and compares their previous work-family conditions, reasons for taking parental leave and withdrawing from work, and behavioral patterns after resignation. This article then typifies four ideal types of resignation backgrounds (i.e. penalty by company, evasion from work, decision by family, choice for family). At the conclusion, this paper suggests policy alternatives to diminish female workers' resignation after parental leave and to heighten their work-family balance.

In Korea, it has recently occurred that problems of productivity and construction duration in the construction industry. If five days per week system come into effect, they'll become more urgent. The productivity of construction industry and competitive construction duration in Korea are too low. If post sale system becomes effective, construction companies will strive to improve productivity. Therefore, the objective of this study is to draw up Architectural PC as the alternative for productivity improving and analyze possibility of productivity improving by comparing with established method of construction.
