As buildings become higher and larger, the possibility of accident also increases, and recurrent accidents and serious accidents are also increasing. However, it is not possible to control all the hazardous activities in construction site. Therefore, hazardous activities with higher possibility should be identified and prioritized in advance so engineers and managers can control the activities in safe manner. For this purpose, this research adopts FMEA technique, which has been widely utilized in manufacturing industry. In order to apply FMEA technique in construction safety management, the process of construction work is divided into sub-processes or activities. Then FMEA technique is applied to quantitatively analyze the importance of each activity from the safety perspective.

As the quality of life has been improving, people are getting higher interest and higher expectation for safety. However, the accident rate at the construction site is still high. Therefore, it is urgent to secure the safety at the construction work. Due to the nature of the construction industry, construction sites are directly exposed to the external environment. The possibility of accident occurrence is increased due to various factors such as the always variable processes, the diversity of manpower input, the increase in vulnerable class, and the danger of construction equipment..Particularly, the disasters occurring at the small- or medium-sized construction sites (budget ≤ 12 billion KRW) account for 88.9% of the total disasters at construction sites (73.4% for casualty). It was due to the lack of management caused by the absence of supervisors and insufficient safety measures. Moreover, it is difficult for the small- or medium-sized construction sites to apply basic safety measures such as safety education and safety facility installation by themselves in order to prevent disasters because they don't have sufficient safety organizations. It is because they have relatively less safety personnel and poorer technology system than large-sized construction sites. Therefore, in order to reduce accidents in construction, it is necessary to prevent accidents at the small- and medium-sized construction sites. From this point of view, the objectives of this study were to identify the key risk items causing accidents frequently by analyzing the accidents at construction sites and identifying problems associated with safety management, and to secure the safety at the small- and medium-sized construction sites.

대학, 기업 및 국 공립 출연 연구소의 연구 활동 종사자는 학술적 연구 및 신기술, 신물질의 개발을 통해 우리나라 과학기술 발전에 크게 기여하고 있다. 그러나 이와 더불어 각종 안전사고에 노출되어 있는 것도 사실이다. 즉, 실험실은 대부분의 작업장 보다 더욱 많은 화재, 폭발 등의 위험에 항상 노출되어 있다. 이는 일반적인 작업장과는 다르게 실험이 종료되면 기존 실험 장치를 철거하고 신규로 다른 실험장치가 설치되기 때문이다. 연구실험실에서 발생한 사고 원인을 분석해 보면, 실험실 기능의 불비, 설비 및 유지관리의 불충분, 실험공간의 협소, 실험 작업 안전에 대한 배려부족, 안전전문가의 부족과 교육훈련체제의 미흡 등을 지적할 수 있으며, 이와 같은 빈번한 사고발생은 우수한 연구 활동 종사자의 연구 의욕을 떨어뜨리고, 건강과 생명에 위협을 느끼게 하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 실험실 안전관리 체크리스트들을 검토하고, 안전관련 분야에서 사용되고 있는 심의 체크리스트를 조사하여, 대학 및 연구기관 등의 바이오실험실에 사용할 수 있는 표준 체크리스트를 개발하고자 한다. 현재 개발된 바이오 분야 체크리스트는 "연구실험실 공통 체크리스트"에 기반하여 바이오 분야에서 중점 평가할 항목을 심화시켜 구성하였다. 바이오 분야에서 주로 이루어지는 생물 실험 및 동물해부 실험시 안전을 위해 반드시 점검해야 할 총 8개의 세부 점검 항목을 제시하였으며, 실험동물 관리 및 사육실 출입시 안전을 위해 점검해야 할 총 11개의 세부 점검 항목을 제시하였고, 세포, 조직 배양 실험 및 유전자 조작 실험시 안전을 위해 점검해야 할 총 5개의 세부 점검 항목을 제시하였다. 또한 미생물 취급시 안전을 위해 점검해야 할 총 19개의 세부 점검 항목을 제시하였으며, 세균 취급시 안전을 위해 점검해야할 총 8개의 세부 점검 항목을 제시하였고 마지막으로, 바이러스 취급시 안전을 위해 점검해야할 총 5개의 세부 점검 항목을 제시하였다. 실험실 안전은 연구종사자의 올바른 안전의식, 연구관련 부서의 체계적 지원 및 실험실 안전 관련 법령의 완비가 뒷받침 되었을 때 비로소 가능한 일이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서 얻어진 체크 리스트가 이에 기여할 것이라 사료되며, 추후 분야별 실험실 안전관리 실태조사의 지침서로 활용되는데 목적이 있다.

The purpose of this research was to provide the information needed for improving the elderly housing education and the elderly housing contents of Technology and Home Economics textbook. Thus, the elderly housing contents of current Technology and Home Economics textbook were categorized. Then, a total of 233 teachers were surveyed to examine their importance perception on the elderly housing contents. Elderly housing contents were grouped into S categories, each of which was named 'safety and safety management', 'room plan for the elderly', 'shrinking stage in family life cycle and dependency stage in housing life cycle','a house for 3-generation extended family', and 'universal design'. Teachers' importance perception was generally high for 'safety and safety management' and especially for 'safety and safety management' of bathroom(protection against slippery floor, safety bar, the appropriate position and height of shower, bathtub, and wash stand) ; the basic guidelines of 'room plan for the elderly'(emergency call, closely located bathroom, flat and non-slippery floor) ; the general guidelines during shrinking stage in family life cycle and dependency stage in housing life cycle'(protection equipments against safety accident, emergency call, flat and non-slippery floor) ; independent life among 3-generation extended family members(bathroom for the elderly, space plan for independent life among extended family members) ; the basic design guidelines of universal design(safety bar in bathroom, flat floor) and the guidelines of universal design which were especially helpful for wheelchair users(enough empty space in front of door and in corridor, wide door and corridor). Recommendations for the elderly housing education and the elderly housing contents of Technology and Home Economics textbook were that 'emergency call','safety bar in bathroom' and 'flat and non-slippery floor' were the most basic guidelines for elderly housing; that 'enough empty space in front of door and in corridor', 'wide door and corridor', 'low and wide steps', 'ramp for wheelchair users' and 'D-type or lever-type door handle' were most recommendable guidelines for universal design; that 'need for elderly housing', 'types of elderly housing', 'alternatives and choices of dependency stage in housing life cycle' and 'house plans for shrinking stage in family life cycle' were required guidelines for increasing elderly-only family.

The Act on the Establishment of Laboratory Safety Environment was enacted in 2015 to prevent safety accidents occurring in laboratories. However, it is time for fundamental and comprehensive safety management measures since various systems for laboratory safety are operated at the same time. The purpose of this study is to propose effective improvement methods in terms of the safety management inspection system. The laboratory's safety management statutes were investigated and compared, and problems arising from differences in inspection systems were derived. Further, specific inspection items were compared separately from the facility aspect and the management aspect. The improvement method was proposed. As a result, although it was the same lab, it was managed by different tests at different times. There were differences in inspection items that focused on the structure and performance of chemical facilities, or on the management criteria such as storage of reagents and management of toxic materials. The problems and suggestions considered in this study are expected to help develop the safety management system for preventing laboratory accidents.

The construction industry has a higher disaster rate than other industries, so safety education and management are highly important. In order to reduce the construction accident rate, it is necessary to study the key safety management factors reflecting the characteristics of the construction industry, where there are differences in processes and manpower input for each process, and a small number of managers. Therefore, in this study, key safety management factors for each Process of construction were derived through cross-analysis between safety accident types and accident occurrence objects through disaster case data. The extracted key safety management factors are expected to provide useful information for safety education and supervision of construction sites.

The construction industry has the most safety accidents among domestic industries. Special care must be taken because disasters in the construction industry lead to social problems caused by huge property losses and casualties. As a result of this, there is a growing awareness of disasters occurring in the construction industry, and government departments are tightening regulations on safety management. In particular, the OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Agency) focuses on the expansion of protection targets and the clarification of responsibility in the full amendment OSHA. As a result, a study that focuses on safety management by client's responsibility is needed. In this study, the project performance capability assessment of construction project management contractors, which is being carried out with uniform assessment criteria without considering the characteristics of the construction project, is considered and all the amendments to the OSHA are considered, and the factors were derived for improvement measures.

The safety accidents of domestic construction happened more than other industries is performed only under the construction stage. In the foreign countries, however, owners and designers play an important role on safety in an early stage. Therefore, numerous studies were carried out by getting rid of accident risks and institutionalizing prevention activities in an construction stages. Accordingly, this study have performed to deduce the pivotal point of safety management items classified by the subject suitable for construction by introducing of safety conception of domestic and international design and suggested the improvement methods of safety management plans of the planning design stage so as to perform more efficient safety management.
