This study aims to analyse the differences of job satisfaction in road freight transportation industry workers by different types of employment. The researchers utilized reliability test and factor analysis to estimate the validity and feasibility of the questionnaire. Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was also applied to assess the differences of job satisfaction level by different employment types. The results of reliability test and factor analysis clearly show that questionnaire samples are reliable and feasible. The multivariate analysis of variance result shows statistical insignificance in the level of job satisfaction between part-time workers and special type ones. On the other hand, there was a significant difference between full-time workers and those in other types of employment. The significant variables such as income, welfare, and working hour, etc were discovered.

Using data from 2008 to 2017, this study analyzed the financial characteristics of offshore freight shipping companies in Korea, categorized by vessel type, and their impact on business performance. The analysis showed an upward trend in the overall debt ratio of offshore freight transport companies and differences in the financial characteristics of each vessel type as well as the major factors affecting business performance. In particular, the significant factors affecting the ROA performance of the business are the size of business and debt ratio in the LPG line; the growth rate in the bulk line; the size of business, debt ratio, and year in the general freight line; and the size of business, growth rate, entertainment expense rate, debt ratio, and year in the full container line. Therefore, each shipping company needs to recognize differences in key financial factors affecting its performance based on vessel type, implement proactive measures, and diversify its vessel portfolio.

현재 도로화물운송을 분석하는데 가장 많이 사용되는 지표는 수송톤(ton)과 톤-키로(ton-km)이다. 하지만 이러한 두 지표는 도로화물운송체계를 설명하기보다는 단순히 운송실적을 나타내는 통계지표이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 한국의 도로화물운송체계를 설명할 수 있는 운송단계, 총 운송거리, 순물동량, 평균운송거리 등의 4개 요소를 추정하였다. 그리고 한국의 도로화물 운송체계의 문제점을 진단하기 위하여 외국이 도로화물운송체계와 비교분석하였다. 본 연구에서 발견된 주요결과는 (1) 한국과 대만은 운송단계와 총 운송거리가 증가하고 평균운송거리는 감소하는 추세를 보였고, (2) 한국과는 대조적으로, 미국, 일본, 네덜란드는 운송단계와 총 운송거리는 감소하고 평균운송거리는 증가하는 변화추세를 보였으며, (3) 시계열 분석결과, 운송단계의 증가는 GDP대비 물류비와 운송비를 증가시키고 운송단계의 감소는 GDP대비 물류비와 운송비를 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과, 한국의 도로화물운송체계는 운송단계를 증가시키는 비효율적인 방향으로 진행되어왔고 이러한 운송단계의 증가는 GDP대비 물류비를 증가시키는 주요 원인임을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 한국의 도로화물운송체계를 개선시키기 위해서는 지능형 화물운송체계의 구축, 복합기능의 화물거점시설 확충, 화물자동차 운송업의 규제완화, 기업물류관리의 선진화 등의 정책을 통하여 불필요한 운송단계의 단축이 필요하다.

This study deals with the determinants of employment productivity of transportation labor, who are the main agents of the transportation industry that has made significant contributions to our country's industrial development. The study selected the determinants of employment productivity using the Korea Labor and Income Panel Study data, and analyzed the effects of various factors using panel logistic regression, panel OLS model, and panel robust regression. The results were as follows. First, a more positive effect was shown when employees held a regular job, had a "high level of education", "joining the labor union" and "experiencing vocational training". Second, in the case of job security, having a "high level of education" and "joining the labor union" showed a more positive effect; further, job security was higher for employees who worked in a "big company" or were "married". Third, in the case of higher income productivity, higher values of "age", "academic ability" and "company size" had a more positive effect, whereas larger values of "education" and "health condition except job training" had a negative one. Fourth, in the case of job satisfaction, "female", "joining the labor union" and having a higher "income" or "job security" led to higher satisfaction and a better "health condition compared to an average person". Further, a higher "overall life satisfaction" and "economic level" led to lower job satisfaction. The analysis of the determinants of employment productivity of transportation business and seeking for improvement plan is expected to improve the employment productivity in the transportation business.

This paper aims to confirm the necessity of the consignment system in Korea's trucking market for the purpose of analyzing the difference in perception between the transportation company and the consignment owner to provide a basis for continuous development of the cargo transportation business. A survey was conducted on the current status of the domestic transportation market with transportation companies and consignment owners, and the perceptions between the two were compared and analyzed. Overall, satisfaction with the consignment system was in the order of transportation companies handling supplies, transportation companies that did not pay supplies, consignment owners belonging to supply companies, and consignment orders belonging to non-volume companies. Similar results were obtained in individual questions. In order for transport companies and consignment owners to coexist and develop in the freight car transport market, it will be necessary to prepare a strategy to increase the satisfaction of consignment owners belonging to transport companies that do not handle relatively low-satisfaction.

This paper compares the differences in management performance in the logistics market and analyzes the differences in business characteristics depending on the industry types. In addition, the effects of industry types and business characteristics on management performance are examined. The analysis method used is ANOVA and K-means clustering. The implication of the study are as follows. First, in the logistics market in Japan, there was a difference in management performance among the types of industry. The warehousing service type had the highest profitability and stability among all the industry types. Second, differences in business characteristics by industry types were tested. It was found that offshore cargo transportation type was more capital intensive than the other types. In addition, warehousing service type had higher business leadership and credit transaction than others. Third, industry types and clusters based on business characteristics had a significant impact on management performance through interaction effects. For the profitability variables in detail, other clusters had a significant effect between transportation types(onshore and offshore cargo) and warehousing service type. On the other hand, in stability variables, one cluster was effective in all types, which is a characteristic that lowers both capital intensity and business leadership.

This study derived determinants of 'Decent Work' in the logistics industry and aims to use the analysis results as basic data for policymaking related to labor in the logistics industry and to prepare policies suitable for the characteristics of the logistics industry. As the dependent variable of the model, the Decent Job derived from the first study was used, and the target model was derived from panel data of whole industries to understand the unique characteristics of logistics industry jobs and applied to the logistics industry model. This study found that in the logistics industry, developing the expertise of the logistics industry through "vocational training" compared to whole industries is an important factor rather than raising the "academic level" through the regular curriculum. This seems to reflect the characteristics of the logistics industry as specialized vocational training is required in the case of "railway transportation", "inland water and port transportation", and "air cargo transportation", which have a high proportion of decent job workers among the detailed logistics industries analyzed in this study. Therefore, developing job expertise through additional manpower training programs such as vocational training as well as academic fields learned through regular curriculum is a very important factor in engaging in "Decent Work" not only in the logistics industry but also in other industries.
