With the recent advancement of the construction industry, interest in it is growing as the accident rate in the construction industry continues to increase due to the enlargement and complexity of the construction scale. These social issues are focused on the safety of construction work, and research on construction industrial accidents is continuously being conducted, but research on measures to reduce construction industrial accidents is surprisingly insufficient. Therefore, in this study, research on reduction measures to increase the safety of construction industrial accidents conducted for 5 years from 2017 to 2021 is investigated and compared, and it is intended to be used as basic data for future construction industrial accident reduction measures.

Safety accident resulting from construction projects getting larger and complex day by day has occurred more often than ever. Particularly, the accident caused by construction equipment, among others, has been on the rise. To prevent such accidents, it's necessary to come up with the measures for reducing the accident. In this study, the cause of safety accidents was analyzed, reviewing the cases of safety accident maintained by Korea Occupational Safety & Health Agency, and the measures for reducing the accident was suggested with computerized safety checklist. The scope of study was limited to excavator, and the result is summarized as below. 1) Investigation was conducted to identify the cases of accident by excavator with the primary causes. 2) Reduction measures were suggested by category of cause of excavator-caused accident. 3) Checklist to prevent the safety accident, which was based on primary causes, was suggested. 4) The measures to stir up safety consciousness and monitor the safety were suggested, making use of computerized system. This study is expected to lay the foundation for further study in future as well as make a great commitment to reducing the safety accident.

The use of temporary Gondola has been steadily increasing. The temporary Gondola is required to get a safety certification review during installation and to be inspected during use within every six months. Most of them, however, are dismantled before six months, and inappropriate activities are conducted frequently for shorter working hours and convenience of work. In this study, the characteristics of the temporary Gondola and the domestic accident cases that occurred over the past 10 years(2008-2017) are analyzed for the type of accident, the state of the accident by year, and the actions of the workers in the event of an accident. Also comprehensive accident reduction measures were proposed by identifying the fundamental causes of temporary Gondola accidents, problems of existing preventive measures, and system defects by utilizing Bow-Tie techniques.

Total industrial accident rate in Korea is facing a record 0.7% for 10 years since 2000. After entering the continuous versus 0.6% (0.69%) in 2010. In 2011, the decrease was reduced to 0.65%. Conversely In contrast to foreign workers' share has increased dramatically over 10 years since 2000 to 2010 are expected to be difficult in the accident rate of 0.5% for the entry. Despite the ongoing disaster reduction efforts to reduce disaster (share) of foreign workers has been increasing rapidly Survey, Whilst the provision of disaster prevention system status and problem analysis and identify measures that can be established through such disaster reduction measures are urgently needed.

The level crossing collision accident which comprises more than 90 percent of all level crossing accidents is one of the most serious safety problems. There is a critical need for providing safe strategy and is focusing on the level crossing information rather than measures at a grade crossing. This study is intended to develop technology for accident prevention and damage reduction based on accident cases analysis result and improvement direction to complement shortcomings of safety equipment of conventional level crossing and to establish safety of travelers(train, motor vehicle, person).

Total accident rate in the construction industry is a very meaningful reduction to establish a comprehensive disaster reduction measures, including through the Survey, the disaster prevention projects whilst driving status and problem analysis in order to reduce the mature workers in the construction industry is growing rapidly in all disaster disasters (share) The days. It is urgent to establish a framework and measures that can identify the specific cause for this than for the middle-aged workers and disaster reduction in disaster reduction efforts, which continue to increase. Used as measures of information and data presented in the basic requirements of mature workers also been.

Low birthrate is causing a reduction in the number of students at kindergartens, elementary schools, middle schools and high schools nationwide and yet, school safety accidents are on a constant rise, which was reported to be 237 accidents a day on average in 2011. Such phenomenon is proving how the school safety policy is not doing what it was supposed to do. In order to decrease the school safety accidents, first, causes of the accidents should be analyzed and then, prevention measures should be designed. For that reason, the study looked into the present condition of the school safety accidents and safety accident theories and based on the results, "School Safety Accident Analysis Matrix Model" was proposed. With a matrix method of the accident types (17 of them) and hazard factors (9 of them) applied, the concerned model analyzed a total of 153 accident causes. In consideration of the results from the analysis, the study suggested that the education authority should open a safety organization and design a school safety policy that would systematically deal with safety education, prevention measures practice, accident investigation and analysis, and countermeasures practice as well.

This study analyzed the direct costs of fall accidents, which have the highest accident rate, for domestic construction industry workers. Firstly, the average insurance payment per person due to fall accidents in the construction industry is around 19 million won (18,971,000 won). Given that the average number of workers suffering fall accidents over ten years is 5,863, the total cost of losses from fall accidents is about 1.1 trillion won (111,360,000,000 won). Secondly, a cost-based economic feasibility analysis was done to develop nonstructural preventive measures for fall accidents. Since there was no data expressing the costs and effects of preventive measures in terms of monetary value, the economic feasibility analysis was attempted with a focus on how much the newly introduced preventive measures can reduce the accident loss costs due to fall accidents. Thirdly, if the accident loss size is grasped and the preventive measures for the causes of fall accidents are developed and strictly implemented, the insurance fee that can reduce the accident loss costs can be determined. Further study is needed to estimate the benefit of the accident loss cost reduction seen from the cost-based approach method.

Recently, the Ministry of Employment and Labor Management is a trend to strengthen all men death rate than the accident rate. Points reduction in the accident rate change orders related to credit rating score to +2 points in his plans as part of +1 point. In addition, according to the fancy linger RISK treatment in the event of a disaster site and fiction treatment to achieve accident-free during processing the scene interspersed with equity issues have been raised. In general disaster for the problem in the first two cases occurs when abnormal process according to the disaster site manager positions dismissal policy, each division headquarters itself, interspersed disasters performance compared to processing in accordance with the refrain, processing expenses in accordance with the composition of untreated industrial accident, costs and burdens partners FTC, there is a possibility that the issues raised, such as the Ministry of Employment and Labor. In response to domestic social practices focused on the construction site practices and prevention measures should be evaluated with respect to what.
