Objectives: This study was conducted to measure financial toxicity (FT) among patients with cancer in Vietnam using the COmprehensive Score for financial Toxicity (COST) and to describe the cost management strategies employed by these patients. Methods: This comprehensive cross-sectional study enrolled 634 patients from 2 specialized oncology hospitals in Vietnam. Using COST cut-off scores, FT was classified as none/mild (≥26), moderate (14-25), or severe (≤13). Cost management strategies, or coping mechanisms, were classified into 4 groups: lifestyle changes, financial resource strategies, treatment modifications, and support seeking. Results: The prevalence of FT was 91.8%, with 51.7% of participants demonstrating severe and 40.1% exhibiting moderate FT. Severe FT was significantly associated with female, low education level, unstable employment, low household economic status, and advanced cancer stage. The most common coping strategies were as follows: among lifestyle changes, reducing spending on basic items and leisure activities (78.7%) and cutting back on essential household expenses (66.4%); among financial resource strategies, borrowing money from relatives or friends (49.1%) and withdrawing funds from retirement or savings accounts (34.1%); within treatment modifications, switching treatment facilities or doctors due to cost concerns (9.3%); and within support seeking, obtaining help from welfare or community organizations (18.8%). All strategies were significantly more likely to be used by patients with severe FT. Conclusions: FT was highly prevalent among patients with cancer. Most patients relied on lifestyle adjustments and coping strategies, underscoring the need for improved financial support systems to alleviate the economic burden associated with cancer care.

본 연구는 대학생들이 지각하는 신체증상, 우울, 불안, 자아존중감과 취업 스트레스와의 상관관계를 알아본 후 취업스트레스에 영향을 주는 요인을 포괄적으로 규명하기 위하여 시행되었다. 연구 결과 여성, 고학년, 낮은 대학생활 만족도, 여가활동 부족, 취업준비 불만족, 취업고민을 공유할 사람 부재 시 그렇지 않은 경우보다 취업스트레스가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 대학생의 우울, 불안과 신체건강은 취업스트레스와 양의 상관관계가 있었고, 자아존중감은 취업스트레스와 음의 상관관계가 있었다. 회귀분석결과 4학년일수록, 우울할수록 취업스트레스가 높았으며 자아존중감이 높을수록, 남성일수록, 취업준비 만족도가 높을수록 취업스트레스가 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 취업준비 프로그램은 취업 정보 제공과 함께 자아존중감을 높일 수 있는 전략이 포함되어야 할 것이다.

본 연구의 목적은 청년 일자리 창출을 위한 교육과정인 청년취업아카데미 '웹툰전문가 양성 과정(상명대학교 수행)'에 참여한 수강생들을 대상으로 중요도-성취도 분석을 통해 수강생들의 만족도를 제고하고 향후 문화콘텐츠 분야 청년 일자리 창출을 위한 웹툰 전문가 양성과정 개설 활성화를 위해 시사점을 도출하는데 있다. '웹툰전문가 양성 과성'에 대한 중요도-성취도 분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 교육 대상자들은 교과내용과 강사에 대해 중요하게 생각하고 있으며, 만족도도 높다. 둘째, 시설에 대해 중요하게 생각하고 있으나 만족도는 낮아 개선이 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 소통에 대해 중요하게 생각하지 않고 있으나 만족하였으며. 소통이 잘 되었음을 보여주었다. 넷째, 취업률의 경우 중요하게 생각하고 있지 않고, 만족도 또한 높지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 대상자가 대부분 2~3학년이고, 웹툰 분야의 특성상 조직으로의 취업보다는 1인 작가 창업의 경우가 많으며, 대학교 2~3학년의 재학생을 대상으로 하는 과정 특성상 취업에 대한 중요도와 만족도는 낮은 것으로 보인다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 본 연구에서는 청년 일자리 창출을 위한 '웹툰전문가 양성 과정'에 대한 만족도를 높이고 활성화 방안을 위한 운영상의 시사점과 교육전략 수립 시 유용한 정보를 제시하였다.

Background: The objective of this study was to elucidate the relationships musculoskeletal pains with combined vulnerability in terms of age, gender, and employment status Methods: The fifth European Working Conditions Survey (EWCS) in 2010 (43,816 participants aged 15 years and over) analyzed for European employees and the third Korean Working Conditions Survey (KWCS) in 2011 (50,032 participants aged 15 years and older) analyzed for Korean employees. In this study, three well known vulnerable factors to musculoskeletal pains (older age, female gender, and precarious employment status) were combined and defined as combined vulnerability. Associations of musculoskeletal pains with combined vulnerability were assessed with prevalence ratios (PRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) estimated by Poisson regression models with robust estimates of variance. Results: The prevalences of musculoskeletal pains were lower but the absolute and relative differences between combined vulnerabilities were higher among Korean employees compared with the European employees. Furthermore, the increased risk of having musculoskeletal pains according to combined vulnerability was modestly explained by socioeconomic factors and exposure to ergonomic risk factors, especially in Republic of Korea. Conclusions: The results of this study showed that the labor market may be more unfavorable for female and elderly workers in Republic of Korea. Any prevention strategies to ward off musculoskeletal pains, therefore, should be found and implemented to mitigate or buffer against the most vulnerable work population, older, female, and precarious employment status, in Republic of Korea.

Objectives: We aimed to find the relationships between employment status and hs-CRP level among Korean wage workers using the 2016 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination (KNHANE, revised). Methods: This study was conducted on 1,937 daytime wage workers over the age of 19 and within a normal weight range (18.5≤BMI≺25). Regular workers were defined as those granted an employment guarantee until reaching retirement age, and non-regular workers were defined as temporary, non-typical, dispatched, short-term workers and contractors. For hs-CRP, three divisions were classified as recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and American Heart Association (AHA) with less than 1.0 mg/L indicating low risk of cardiovascular disease, above 1.0 mg/L and below 3.0 mg/L considered moderate risk, and more than 3.0 mg/L indicating high risk. To find the relationship between work type and hs-CRP level in Korean wage workers, multinominal logistic regression analysis was performed. Results: For non-regular workers, the odds ratio of the cardiovascular moderate-risk group and cardiovascular high-risk group was statistically significant compared to regular workers. After adjusting for factors such as gender, age, subjective health status, income, education, smoking, and physical labor, the odds ratio of the cardiovascular high-risk group was statistically significant. Conclusions: In this study, the relationship between non-regular workers and high hs-CRP level was examined. Based on this, institutional strategies should be pursued to prevent and manage cardiovascular disease among non-regular workers.

Purpose: This study aimed to determine health problems experienced by workers in special employment relationships (WSER) and identify coping strategies used when such problems occur. Methods: This qualitative study used the focus group interview method. Thirteen study participants included five home-visit tutors, five insurance salespersons, and three credit card recruiters. The interviews were conducted from November 2018 through January 2019, with each occupational group interview lasting about 2 hours. Analysis based on phenomenological research was independently performed by two researchers. Results: Most participants had common health problems involving vocal cord symptoms, and stress related to emotional labor and traffic accidents. The unique health problems included cystitis, musculoskeletal, and digestive symptoms in home-visit tutors; reduced vision and hearing in insurance salespersons; and mental distress in credit card recruiters. There was no protection system for their health coverage, and the company emphasized their self-employed status to avoid taking responsibility for them. Twelve participants did not purchase occupational accident insurance owing to both not having adequate information and economic burden concerning premium status. Conclusion: WSER experienced both physical and mental health problems. These problems were caused by their unstable employment status, and the social security system for their coverage being non-functioning.

One of many factors that influences the profit of an enterprise is the amount of the stock in an enterprise. When the stock amounts are optimal the economic burden of the enterprise decreases which in turn results in the optimum number of employment and spatial utilization of storages. The purpose of this study is the simulation modeling of a material stock control system using DEVS models in order to get the most suitable stock amounts. The stock within an enterprise is built by the orders from outside world. The effect on the stock by the factors such as order, delivery, and production components has been analyzed based on simulation results.
