  • In recent years, as the number of death in accidents have increased in the working environment, the safety issue has emerged as an important social issue. Despite efforts to reduce safety accidents through many existing safety-related policies and systems, accident prevention is limited. Accident prevention services using IoT technology have been commercialized recently and the effect is very high. In this study, IOT technology is used to investigate the latest cases of reducing death accidents in the work environment.

  • For the prevention of marine accidents based on human factor, the risk assessment analysis procedure is proposed which consists of (1) the structural analysis of marine accident, (2) the estimation of incidence probability based on the Fault Tree analysis, (3) the prediction of ef-fectiveness to reduced the accident risk by suitable countermeasures in the specified functional system, and (4) the risk assessment by means of minimizing of the total cost expectation and the background risk. As a practical example, the risk assessment analysis for preventing is investigated using the proposed method.

  • The school is the educational and living space for students and teachers. And, the safety of the school facilities is very important element on the school activities. For this safety of school facilities, there is a need to prevent of safety-accident by the reinforcement of the systematic and the removal of risk factors. In order to minimize the damages from school facilities this study tried to suggest the solution for the prevention of safety accidents according to research about actual conditions of safety accidents from school facilities.

  • The production of electricity from wind energy is noticed as economic power generation system in the natural resource. Lately, since lots of wind turbine have installed globally, the accidents have increased gradually. In this paper, we classified domestic information for 10 years, information of new energy and industrial technology development organization(NEDO) for 4years and caithness windfarms information forum(CWIF) for 15 years according to part and cause of wind turbine accident. We found that the main causes of accidents are storm, lightening and carelessness. The results of classifying and analyzing the informations, should be used to take measures on the accident prevention of wind turbine.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety consciousness of the lobours working at the ship building or repairing yard at which the industrial accidents frequently happen, and to provide the basic data required for the prevention of those accidents. This study is made by analyzing the questionnaires of 208 labours working at various ship building or repairing industries at random. This questionnaire is focused on finding the basic data for prevention of industrial accidents and getting the public opinions and proposals of labours. The results obtained by this study are as follows ; The negative estimations of the labours to the safety are cultivation of safety consciousness, the safety behavior in company, the molters of arrangement and the estimation of industrial or post arrangement. The positive ones are the arrangements of the protective tools and equipments for safety, the rule of safety regulation and the order of works, and the status of health education within company.

  • In construction industry, workers' accident rates are relatively high compared to those of other industries. These high accidents rates are mostly due to the characteristics of construction process. In order to effectively reduce the accident rates, it is required to develop not only immediate measures but also long-term programs of instruction, training, and education. In addition, well-analyzed information on past history is required for the prevention of accidents. By examining about 800 cases of construction accidents that happened between Jan. 1992 and Dec. 2000, this paper developed an information system that provides appropriated safety information to the construction workers. This system is expected to contribute to the workers' safety in construction industry.

  • Korea is becoming an aged society as well developed country. Accident rates of elderly workers are increased. When elderly workers injured, elderly workers are more likely to die as a result, and they take longer to recover than young workers. Thus the cost to industry per individual accident gets higher for elderly workers. If information on the occupational accidents of elderly workers could be collected and analyzed for the purpose of preventing occupational accidents, we would be able to get rid of accidents of elderly workers. The accidents of elderly workers in small manufacturing factories were considered in this study. 97 accidents, which occurred in 1995-1998, were investigated. These accidents were analyzed in terms of sex, work period, cause of accident and form of accident. The accidents of elderly workers in small manufacturing factories are numerous and are often serious and worthy of greater attention than they have received. Successful strategies for accident prevention depend on effective analysis.

  • The majority of school accidents occur due to negligence caused by the student. And there are many accidents caused by inadequate facilities and poor. In order to improve the facilities, a lot of improvement in student life facilities will be preceded conscious about the sense of safety, than the budget. If schools member have a risk recognition through safety training and ongoing attention of all experience-oriented, the occurrence of accidents is significantly reduced. it is needed continuous attentions and careful efforts to improve school facilities. The results were as follows. First, check for accident prevention and the improvement of the school facilities should be made immediately. Second, we need to redefine the standards facilities for school safety accident prevention. Third, the management program is needed to prevented school accident. Fourth, the Hazard identification and risk assessment training is needed.

  • Construction accidents are very serious comparing to its workers. These kind of accidents consist in the particularity of construction. The accident prevention task in construction requires both into immediate approach and longer range approach of instruction, training and education. Information concerning each individual accident, if the information of investigation has been done well, it provides information of prevention accident. At this point, this paper by examining 800 cases of serious accident researched by the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency from Jan. 1992 to Dec. 2000 specifically targeting apartment and building construction develops the construction information system to suggest the proper information of construction safety.
