There is a growing concerns for startups and management issues in the small business sector. In the Korean unique condition, female-owned small business seemed to play a crucial role in stimulating domestic demands and replacements for workforce reductions in the time of reduced birth rates and export-driven economy. Despite importance of female-owned small businesses, domestic statistics about female small businesses are not well recognized and defined. To design the current entrepreneurship training programs for female entrepreneurs more female-friendly, we need to improve overall environments surrounding training systems. We can classify the environmental improvement for women-friendly entrepreneurship training into three types as follows: First, it is needed to conduct regular surveys on difficulties female entrepreneurs may have. To develop a program for women-friendly entrepreneurship training, extensive and thorough survey is required for entrepreneurship training goals. To design women-friendly entrepreneurship training for women entrepreneurs henceforth, preliminary surveys should be carried out to detect problems within the course of the program and women's expectation regarding entrepreneurship training. Second environmental improvement is to overcome the lack of information on entrepreneurship training for women. Difficulties that women entrepreneurs experience are different from their counterparts, male. Last is about overcoming the lack of follow-up management after opening a business. To surmount the issue, we need to organize a management improvement consulting systems focused on female entrepreneurs. Establishing networks connecting female businesses should be the most urgent measure. With this regard, if follow-up services for female entrepreneurs are provided for at least three years from the time a business is opened, it may produce even more desirable results.

Child care in Korea has been officially institutionalized due to the legislation of the Child Care Act in 1991. Since then, the predominant social phenomena such as growing female workforce, more intensified female education, and the low birth rates have led the stronger demand for child care at the national level. Accordingly, the supply of child care services and the demand of families using the services have increased dramatically, producing enhancement of the quality of child care via improved and extended laws and regulations. Such movements have arisen academic interests and policy issues to specific sectors with details including child care policies, curriculum and professionals working with young children at child care centers, needs of children and their families attending child care centers, and program evaluations.

본 연구는 우리나라 교육계열 전공 여성 박사의 학교와 직장의 진로성취과정에서 겪는 진로개발 및 진로장애를 탐색하는데 그 목적이 있다. 연구의 목적을 수행하기 위하여 최근 5년 이내의 교육계열 전공 여성 박사 42명을 대상으로 질적 연구를 진행하였다. 그 결과 교육계열 여성 박사들은 교수와의 학술활동을 통해서 자신의 진로개발에 영향을 가장 많이 받고 있었으며 둘째, 직장 내에서 유리창효과를 경험한 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 결혼이라는 것이 기혼 및 미혼 여성 박사 모두 진로개발 시 장애요인이라고 인식했다. 기혼은 자신의 가정과 육아에 대한 책임감과 미혼은 유교적 가치관 속에서 사회적 약자로 인식하고 있었다. 이러한 다양한 경험들은 여성 박사들에게 진로개발을 저해하는 요인으로 나타났지만 주변인의 지지와 자신의 자아실현에 대한 강한 목표의식은 진로장벽을 타계하는 방편으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 여성 박사의 진로개발에는 다양한 관점에서의 맥락이 여성의 진로개발에 영향을 주는 것으로 발견되었다. 여성 박사를 위한 진로지도는 학생들의 요구와 사회 변화에 따라 유동적이고 다각적인 방향에서 접근 하는 것이 필요하다.

According to the research on the gender ratio of furniture design courses at universities, female students account for 70 to 80 percent of the total enrollments. Likewise, other design courses reveal the similar trend. Even though female students want to build up their career in the furniture design or related fields, the figure is not so high. There is a trend that many female designers tend to take time off or quite their jobs after their marriage for that reasons such as pregnancy, childbirth, the upbringing of children and so on. The study also shows that women with higher education feel more difficult to resume their careers after being left from economic activity for a long period; this results in the lower figure of women involved in the specialized jobs than men. In particular, the furniture companies avoid hiring old female designers because they believe that younger candidates are more capable of learning the latest style; therefore, it has become harder for the job seeks to win the competition in the job market. The data released by Statistics Korea in 2015 shows that there was the higher increase in female employees than the figure of the male workers, compared to the previous year. As it can be seen, female workforce was emerged as the new growth power; Nevertheless, the working environment and conditions haven't meet the demands from women despite the gradual rise of female job seekers inspired by their wish to achieve self-realization, gender equality. To conclude, this is to suggest the plans for the foundation and management of small-scale carpentry studios so that women, who have a degree in furniture design studies and wish to resume their careers after their long breaks, start their own carpentry studios so as to reach self-realization and feel satisfied with their work while earning their livelihoods.

In Korea, female workforce has reached more than 40% of total working population, but the effects of work on spontaneous abortion are yet to be examined. This study as conducted to investigate the occupational effects on spontaneous abortion. Medical insurance claim data were used to examine the effects of the employment status and industry of employment on spontaneous abortion. The study population was composed of females, aged $15{\sim}44$, who were the beneficiary of medical insurance in the month of June, 1993. The working females covered by medical insurance for industrial workers, had the highest age-adjusted Spontaneous Abortion rate (SAB rate=claim frequency of spontaneous abortion/claim frequency of complication of pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium), 6.65% whereas female dependants of medical insurance for industrial workers had the lowest age-adjusted SAB rate, 4.54%. Among industrial workers, the workers in manufacturing industry had the highest age-adjusted Spontaneous Abortion ratio(SAB ratio=claim frequency of spontaneous abortion/claim frequency of completly normal delivery), 43.2/100 whereas those in financing and service industry had age-adjusted SAB ratio, 16.2/100 and 20.5/100, respectively. The results of the study suggest the adverse effect of manufacturing Industry on reproduction. Work environments such as chemical exposures, overwork, awkard posture, and job stress should be further studied for their effects on reproductive functions of female.

최신 ICT 기술은 4차 산업혁명의 핵심으로 향후 각종 산업발전의 교두보 역할을 담당할 것으로 예상되고 있으나 여전히 ICT기술의 격차가 빈부의 격차로 직결되며 그 격차는 더 벌어지고 있다. 개도국에서의 여성 ICT 역량 강화교육은 국가발전을 위한 양질의 인력을 양성할 수 있는 기회가 되고 기술격차를 해소할 수 있는 방안이라고 할 수 있다. 본 연구는 개도국의 학생들에게 교육을 통해 ICT 기술을 보급하기 위한 준비단계로서, 인도네시아의 UHP 대학의 인프라 및 ICT교육현황을 조사하고자 한다. 이에 근거하여 여대생들에게 적절한 ICT 교육콘텐츠를 개발하고 지속적인 교육을 위해 필요한 정책을 제언하고자 한다. 또한 기존연구인 Life 대학 설문조사 결과와 비교분석하여 교육의 효율성을 제고하는 교수법을 모색하고자 한다.

The research question in this study was to see whether there were similarities and differences in HR practices of IT-based companies in Korea. Interviews with 12 HR executives and a survey of 51 IT-based companies showed that there were IT industry-specific HR practices, but no group differences except one. The only one difference between two groups (small- and medium-sized firms versus multinational corporations) indicated that the latter was better positioned in various HR practices. Four HR themes emerged from analyses of interviews and a survey data: business environment, workforce management, HR practices, and HR for competitive advantage. The fact that none from large companies was found to have female HR executive calls for an in-depth study of what is occurring and what could be done to better the workplace in terms of diversity. A large-scale study using diverse methods in the future will produce more meaningful findings on HR practices in IT-based firms in Korea.

이 연구는 장래의 우리나라 여성(25~54세) 경제활동참가율이 미국이나 일본의 역사적 경험을 따라 변화하는 경우 최근(2018년)의 경제활동참가율이 유지되는 경우에 비해 2065년까지 여성경제활동인구가 어떻게 변화하는지를 추정하였다. 결과에 따르면 미국이나 일본의 역사적 사례에 기초한 시나리오가 실현되는 경우 25~54세 여성 경제활동인구가 2042년까지 각각 약 14%(약 797,000명) 및 15%(약 831,000명) 더 늘어날 것으로 예상된다. 특히 현재 경력단절현상이 심한 30대와 40대 초반 여성경제활동인구가 큰 폭으로 증가할 것으로 전망된다. 이 연구의 결과는 비교적 가까운 장래에 인구변화로 인한 전체경제활동인구 감소효과가 크지 않을 것임을 시사한다. 일본의 사례를 적용한 시뮬레이션 결과는 여성 경제활동을 증가시키기 위한 정책적인 노력이 인구구조변화가 노동시장에 미칠 것으로 우려되는 잠재적인 영향에 대응하는데 있어서 적어도 가까운 장래에 있어서는 장년고용을 증가시키기 위한 노력에 비해 효과적이라는 것을 보여준다.
