The $4^{th}$ Industrial Revolution, symbolizing the explosive innovation of digital technologies, is expected to have a great impact on labor relations and produce a lot of contested issues. The labor-management issues, created by the $4^{th}$ Industrial Revolution, are as follows: (1) employment restructuring, job re-allocation, and skill-reformation, driven by the technological displacement, resetting of worker-machine relationship, and negotiation on labor intensity and autonomy, (2) the legislation of institutional protection for the digital dependent self-employed, derived from the proliferation of platform-mediated labor, and the statutory recognition of their 'workerness', (3) unemployment safety net, income guarantee, and skill formation assistance for precarious workeforce, (4) the protection of worker privacy from workplace surveillance, (5) protecting labor rights of the digital dependent self-employed and prcarious workers and guaranteeing their unionization and collective bargaining. In comparing how labor unions in Western countries have responded to the $4^{th}$ Industrial Revolution, German unions have showed a strategic approach of policy formation toward digital technological innovations by effectively building and utilizing diverse channel of social dialogue and collective bargaining, while those in the US and UK have adopted the traditional approach of organizing and protesting in attempting to protect the interest of platform-mediated workers (i.e. Uber drivers). In light of the best practice demonstrated by German unions, it is necessary to build the process of productive policy consultation among three parties- the government, employers, and labor unions - at multi levels (i.e. workplace, sectoral and national levels), in order to prevent the destructive damage as well as labor-management confrotation, caused by digital technological innovations. In such policy consultation procesess, moreover, the inclusive and integrated approach is required to tackle with diverse problems, derived from the $4^{th}$ Industrial Revolution, in a holistic manner.

The management environment in Korea today is undergoing rapid changes; in particular, domestic corporations and businesses are confronting formidable adversity with IMF crisis and WTO. Though cost cutback, higher quality, rapid production, and diversification of products were accepted as important requirements for competitiveness in the past, they have been replaced by brand power. Consumption patterns have changed their focus from function to image orientation. This is why managers in corporations have invested enormous amounts of resources into producing powerful brands, which can attract consumers' attention greatly enough to improve the image of their products. Brands are regarded as a vital vehicle for marketing strategies and thus as a legal asset. Brands with remarkable and favorable image can secure a loyal consumer groups stable revenues. M & A, currently active between corporations, makes brand equity all the more important. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of internal marketing and increased brand diversification on brand equity by combining them as influential factors with marketing mix factor. For this purpose, literature review was make on previous fragmented studies of influential factors on brand equity build-up. Based on the findings of this study, some operational implications were suggested for marketing managers. The findings and implications of the present study are as follows; First, efficient communication among organization members was found to have a significant effect on product quality. Second, job satisfaction and efficient communication among members was shown to significantly influence price policies. Thirdly, efficient communication among organization workers proved to have a significant effect on distribution strategies. Forth, efficient communication among members was demonstrated to significantly influence advertisement and other public-relations activities. Fifth, opacity of market environment appeared to have a significant effect on product quality, prior market entrance as perceived by organization members turned to be of negative influence on product quality. Sixth, opacity of market environment was found to have a significant effect on price policies. Seventh, opacity of market environment was shown to be of significant effect on distribution strategies. Eighth, grater opacity of market environment proved to improve advertisement and other public-relations activities. Ninth, price policies, distribution strategies, advertisement and public-relations activities were found to have a significant effect on brand equity value. To sum up these findings, in order for corporations and businesses to cope with consumers' needs that are increasingly segmented, internal marketing strategies and brand diversification should be implemented so as to generate greater synergy effect. It is also important to stress that differentiated, higher competitiveness should be secured for Korean corporations and businesses to survive in the drastically changing, globalized market environment. In this regard, continuous and long-term management strategies for brand equity build-up should be ensured and is essential in the present unlimited competition. The last but not least important point to notice is that to increase brand equity value, intensive investment and constant emphasis should be made on internal marketing management on intra-organizational members before strengthening external marketing.

Objectives : Because shipyard workers are involved with various manufacturing process, they are exposed to many kinds of hazardous materials. Welders especially, are exposed to bisphenol-A (BPA) during the welding and flame cutting of coated steel, This study was conducted to assess the exposure status of the endocrine disrupter based on the job-exposure matrix. The effects of the genetic polymorphism of xenobiotic enzyme metabolisms involved in the metabolism of BPA on the levels of urinary metabolite were investigated. Methods : The study population was recruited from a shipyard company in the f province. A total of 84 shipbuilding workers 47 and 37 in the exposed and control groups, respectively, were recruited for this study. The questionnaire variables included, age, sex, use of personal protective equipment, smoking, drinking and work duration. The urinary metabolite was collected in the afternoon and correction made for the urinary creatinine concentration. The of the CYP1A1, CYP2E1 and UGT1A6 genotypes were investigated using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) methods with the DNA extracted from venous blood. Results : The urinary BPA level in the welders group was significantly higher than in the control group (p<0.05). The urinary BPA concentration with the wild type UGT1A6 was higher than the other UGT1A6 genotypes, but with no statistical significant. From themultiple regression analysis of the urinary BPA, the regression coefficient for job grade was statistically significant (p<0.05). Conclusions : The grade of exposure to BPA affected the urinary BPA concentration was statistically significant. However, the genetic polymorphisms of xenobiotics enzyme metabolism were not statistically significant. Further investigation of the genetic polymorphisms with a larger sample size is needed.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of exercise therapy and relaxation therapy on catecholamine and heart rate in people in white color jobs and to determine this information the effectiveness of applied exercise therapy and relaxation therapy as a nursing intervention method for stress patients. The subjects were divided into an exercise therapy group, a relaxation therapy group, and control group and the research design was a nonequivalent control group pretest-post test design(exercise therapy : n= 12, relaxation therapy : n=12, control group, the group without any treatment in exercise on relaxation therapy : n=12), The subjects in the exercise therapy group were given a particular intensity for each kp during 30min, bicycle ergometer which is using an LX PE training system before & after 4weeks of training. The exercise therapy that was used was Astrard load method which tested absolute exercise load of heart rate before & after four weeks, and resting heart rate was tested for exercise and relaxation therapy before, after four weeks, and at eight weeks. The results of each kp & absolute exercise load were calculated with the target rate formula(maximal heart rate-rest heart rate) x exercise intensity(%) + rest heart rate so the subjects could continue 60-70% exercise intensity for exercise therapy over eight weeks. The relaxation therapy subjects were trained using a modified Jacobson's relaxation technique for eight weeks. The exercise and relaxation therapy were trained at the following intensity for eight weeks(3times/week, 30min/day) to see changes in catecholamine & heart rates. After eight weeks, statistical analysis of exercise & relaxation therapy were carried out Two-way ANOVA and multiple range test(SNK : Student Newman Keul) were used. The results are as follows : 1. The change of epinephrine & norepinephrine in the exercise therapy, relaxation therapy, and control group was statistically significant at the .05 level after four weeks & eight weeks. Also, exercise therapy was statistically significant at .05 level over that of the control group after 4weeks. 2. The change of heart rate in relaxation therapy was statistically significant at the .05 level, and was statistically significant at the .05 level over that of the exercise therapy and control group. In conclusion, it is obvious that exercise therapy and relaxation therapy should be one of the most effective stress treatment and desirable nursing interventions methods for job stress in people in white color jobs.

(1) Type A Group used more problem-focused and emotion-focused coping style than Type B Group (2) Non-sociable group used more emotion-focused coping style especially 'escape-avoidance' behavior than sociable group (3) Emotionally unstable group used more emotion-focused coping style especially 'distancing' and 'escape-avoidance behavior than stable group. 2. There was no significant relationship between personality traits and stress coping effect except emotional stability. 3. There was same inter-correlations among personality, coping style, and coping effect, (1) Type A was significantly correlated with sociability but not with emotional stability. (2) Problem-focused coping style was positively correlated with emotion-focused coping style. (3) Coping effect was not significantly correlated with coping style and personality traits accept emotional stability. 4. There was significant relationship between cognitive appraisal and coping style. (1) When they appraised the event 'could change or did something about it,' that used more problem-focused coping style than appraised 'had to accept.' (2) When they appraised the event ' could control before it occures.' they used more problem-focused and emotion-focused coping style than appraised it 'could not control'.

IS/IT 분야 실무자가 지니고 있어야 한다고 생각되는 지식과 전문 기술들을 '지식/능력 영역'과 '소프트웨어 전문 기술 영역'으로 구분하여 각각 세부 항목을 명세하였다. 그리고 분류된 두 영역에 대하여 IS/IT 분야 실무자가 생각하는 필요한 지식 및 전문 기술들의 중요도와 IS/IT 전공 교수가 생각하는 IS/IT 실무자에게 필요한 지식 및 전문 기술들의 중요도를 조사하여 두 그룹간의 인식차 비교를 시도하였다. 조사지역은 실무자는 충청지역 및 수도권 지역에 분포하는 SI 업체를 대상으로 이루어 졌다. IS/IT 실무자를 대상으로 한 조사는 실무자 본인의 일장에서 IS/IT 실무자가 갖추어야 된다고 판단되는 지식 및 전문 기술들의 중요도를 측정하였다. 그와 더불어 그들이 수행하는 IS 활동에 대하여 투자한 시간을 기준으로 군집분석을 실시하여 세가지 그룹으로 구분하여 실무자 전체와 세 그룹간의 비교가 가능하도록 조차되었다. 비교 결과, 지식/능력 영역에서는 IS 실무자들이 상대적으로 '하드웨어에 대한 지식', '특정 조직', '운영체제에 대한 지식'에 대해 더 높은 중요도를 부여하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 소프트웨어 전문 기술 영역에서는 실무자보다 전공교수가 생각하는 중요도가 보편적으로 더 높게 나타났다. 전공 교수는 '프리젠테이션 도구', '객체지향 언어(C++, Java 등)'에 4점 대의 높은 점수를 주어 중요한 것이 무엇인가 하는 인지가 있는 것으로 보이나 실무자 그룹에서는 특별히 중요시 여기는 항목이 명확히 드러나지 않고 보편적인 값이 median 값 주변에 위치하고 있다. 이는 현재 실무자들이 빠르게 변화하고 있는 IS/IT 환경에서 본인의 경력경로 (career path)을 위해 무엇이 중요한 갓인지 아직 명확히 하고 있지 못하는 것으로도 해석이 가능하다. 자세한 비교/분석 및 해석은 현재 진행 중이며, 여러 흥미로운 해석이 가능할 것으로 기대 된다.합형 파괴가 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 이상의 결과로, 상아질 접착제의 접착단계/과정이 결합내구성에 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 접착과정의 단순화가 반드시 접착에 효과적이라고 할 수 없다.는 저작 운동 잔에는 2군에서 Heliomolar가 Pyramid보다 변연적합도가 우수하였고 (p < 0.05) 그 외의 군에서는 유의차가 없었으며, 저작 운동 후에는 모든 군에서 재료간 유의차가 없었다. 각 부위별 변연적합도를 비교하면, 저작 운동 전 Pyramid에서는 교합면 변연에서는 4군이 2군에 비해 높은 변연적합도를 보였고 (p < 0.05), 인접면과 치은면에서는 군 간 유의차를 보이지 않았다.
