Security officers' intent to leave their job would have devastating effects on national security related industries. That is because excessive turnover would result in wasting the money for recruiting and training for organizations as well as putting the level of national security at risk. Therefore, this study has a goal to investigate the factors influencing the intent of leave job among security staff working for one of public institution, airports(n=198). Specifically, this study has a focus on examining the effect of job satisfaction, job commitment and security staff's level of commitment on national security on their turnover intent. The results of the multivariate ordinary lest square regression analysis reveal that job satisfaction, job commitment, and the level of national security commitment directly influence turnover intent. Also, the job satisfaction and the level of national security commitment has indirect impact on the turnover intent via job commitment. However, the results indicate that gender, age, and educational level are not related with security staff's decision to leave their job. Policy implications and study contribution were discussed in this study.

본 연구에서는 건축공사의 공정별 공정내용을 파악하고 그에 따라 발생하는 각종 유해요인을 분석하여 공정별 유해요인에 따른 작업환경측정대상과 특수건강진단의 정확한 진단항목 대상을 분석한다. 이를 통한 유해 공정에 따른 정확한 유해요인인자의 파악을 통해 작업환경측정 및 특수건강진단을 유해인자별 정기적으로(산업안전보건법 시행규칙 별표23 특수건강진단의 시기 및 주기를 참조)실시한다면 유해 인자에 따라 표적 추적 검사를 통해 보다 유의한 결과를 측정 가능하며 도출된 결과로 관리적, 공학적, 개인적 개선대책을 세워 관리한다면 직업성 질병을 예방하고, 쾌적한 작업환경을 조성하여 근로자의 안전과 보건을 유지증진 할 것으로 판단되었다. 또한 정기적인 특수건강진단으로 직업성 질병의 예방 및 조기발견으로 사후조치를 적절히 하여 근로자 건강 보호와 노동 생산성 향상을 기대할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Korean seafarers have played a key role throughout the country's history and economic development. They have been a major source of foreign remittance into the nation as well as a pivotal sector in emergency logistics during war times. However, the current number of Korean seafarers in decreasing due to low job attractiveness and retention rate onboard. This is a major problem for the national and international shipping industry as youth seem not to be interested in working onboard for long periods of time. The purpose of this study is to 1) determine what the public opinion about seafarers in Korea is and 2) find out what factors mostly stand out in the public opinion about seafarers profession. The paper suggests that three main types of opinion groups emerged. The first type is labeled as 'high risk, high workload and high stress' as respondents recognized a high possibility of accident onboard and, at the same time, acknowledged that seafarers can be fatigued and stressed. The second type was named as 'Dangerous, Dirty, Difficult', as seafarers' image was mainly associated to fishing vessels and not to merchant and passenger ships. The third type recognized that the social position of the seafarers was low due to 'low social recognition'. The study suggests that all three types have a negative image of seafarers' job. Based on the results of this study, it is necessary to establish various policies and marketing tools to improve the negative job image linked to seafarers by the public opinion. If the public image of seafarers can be improved and attractiveness rose, it is expected a higher number of seafarers will pursue and keep a career at sea.

Objective: The objective of this study was to estimate the numbers of employees occupationally exposed to noise according to their industry and size. Methods: A Delphi panel consisting of 15 occupational health experts estimated the exposure prevalence of noise in workplace. Data on Industrial Accident Compensation Insurance provided from Occupational Safety and Health Research Institute were combined to produce the exposure population. Results: In Korea, 16.0% of employees, 2,539,890 out of 15,838,926, was estimated to exposed to noise occupationally. The rate was 32.7% and 10.3% in manufacturing sector and non-manufacturing sector, respectively. The highest rate, 52.5%, was found in manufacturing industries of wood and of products of wood and cork(except furniture) and of other transport equipment. Sorted by their size of business, the rate was higher as the number of employee was larger in manufacturing sector. Conclusions: Compared to the same rate estimated in the US, 17.2%, the result of this study seems to be in a resonable range.

Purpose: This study aims at developing and implementing Smart Safety Management System based on IoT/ICT Convergence for safety of high-risk groups working at disaster or industrial field. Its functions are as follows. Method: We will develop three devices for keeping the safety of high-risk jobs: Sensor of inactivity, Lora based Refitting technology for communication between high-risk workers, and Lora Gateway for monitoring entire situations. Then we will test three devices in respect of their functions, and propose their applicabilities in the field. Results: The system can send and receive safety tags and danger signals by which sensor technology can detect dangerous state of workers. And its command terminal was developed by low-power wireless communication technology and LoRa Gateway, which can fulfill the lifting functions between safety tags. And, furthermore, the command terminal can monitor dangerous situations of disaster sites in real time and can perform the preemptive rescues. Conclusion: This study proves the functional efficacy of Smart Safety Management System for worker safety in various high-risk occupational groups, and also suggests ways to secure worker safety in disaster area and various high risk industrial sites.

우리나라의 고령화는 세계적으로 가장 빠른 속도로 진행되고 있다. 정년 60세 의무화 법안이 통과되고 기업 내 고직급자가 증가하면서, 직업에 임하는 개인들의 인식도 변화하고 있다. 기업은 교육을 통한 역량 강화, 근무 환경 개선, 유연 근무제 등의 방안을 통해 고령화를 대비할 필요가 있다.

근골격계 질환은 다른 질병과는 달리 직업적 특성 때문에 발생하는 질환자수가 많고 집단적으로 발생한다. 질환들의 예방활동은 단순하게 접근하거나 또는 1회 적인 예방활동으로는 원천적인 예방이 어려우므로 품질관리 시스템과 환경경영시스템을 참고하여 지속적인 관리와 더불어 조직적인 관리가 이루어 져야 한다. 이러한 목적을 달성하기 위해 사업장의 인간공학 관리시스템을 12가지 기본요소(방침 및 리더십, 조직, 계획, 책임, 평가 예방과 관리, 교육과 훈련, 의사소통, 규칙 및 절차, 내부 검사와 감사, 사고/질병 조사, 문서와 기록관리, 프로그램 평가)로 세분화하여 시행하였다. 이를 이용하여 pallet 적재방법, key hole 가공작업방법, 기판 수삽입 작업대 등을 개선한 사례를 제시하였다.

This is a descriptive correlation study to identify health status and affecting factors related to job among Korean women employees. Data were obtained from women employees aged 20 to 64 using the Korean Working Conditions Survey 2006(KWCS). Stepwise multiple regression analysis using SAS version 9.1 was performed to identify affecting factors on physical and psychological health status related to job among Korean women employees. Musculoskeletal work-load was the most significant factor affecting on both physical and psychological health status. Modification of work environment to relieve musculoskeletal work-load, systemic health management and health education needs to be given to women employees who were exposed to high musculoskeletal work-load.

Pentaborane의 직업적 노출기준 TLV-TWA는 0.005 ppm(0.013 mg/m$^3$)으로 TLV-STEL은 0.015 ppm(0.039 mg/m$^3$)으로 권고하였다. 이 수준은 중추신경장애, 무감각, 운동장애, 근육 떨림 그리고 경련의 증상을 최소화하기 위한 것이다. TLV-STEL은 동물 독성실험에서 보고된 부정확한 노출농도에 대한 안전을 부가적으로 확보하기 위하여 권고하였다. 피부노출, SEN, 발알성 여부에 대한 노출 권고치는 충분한 데이터가 없어 현재 설정되지 않고 있다.

최근 산업사회의 급속한 환경변화는 근로자의 상병구조에서도 나타나 작업이 단순반복화 되며 다양한 작업공구를 반복적으로 사용하게 되어 작업속도와 작업량이 많아지고 운동부족으로 인한 근력의 약화 등에 의해서 근골격계질환이 급속히 증가하고 있다. 이로 인한 근로자의 삶의 질은 물론 결근에 의한 노동력 손실, 제품불량 증가, 산재보상비용 지출증가 등으로 성장을 둔화시키고 사회$.$경제적으로 문제의 심각성을 더해주고 있다. 최근 노동부가 발표한 산업재해통계를 보면 2002년도 산업재해 중 업무상질병자는 5,417명으로 전년대비 136명 감소하였으나, 이중 직업성 근골격계질 환자(신체부담작업 및 요통)는 1,827명으로 전년대비 193명(11.8%) 증가한 것으로 나타났고, 그 발생양상이 집단적이라는 특성을 갖고 있다. 이처럼 직업성 근골격계질환의 업무상 질병에서 차지하는 비율이 증가추세에 있고 대부분의 선진국에서도 과거에는 각종 화학물질에 의한 직업병이 상위를 차지해 오다가 근래에는 동 질환이 업무상질병의 상당부분 이상으로 차지하고 있다. 미국의 경우 1998년 한해동안 253,300건(64.2%) 발생하였고 이 가운데 자동차 관련업종이 가장 많은 비율을 점유하고 있다.(중략)
