The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of corporate social responsibility on organizational identification and customer orientation by flight attendants. In this study, 2 hypotheses based on literature reviews were employed. Questionnaire was also developed based on previous studies. A convenience sample of 217 flight attendants was surveyed and 203 usable questionnaires were analyzed. Corporate social responsibility was divided into economic responsibility, legal responsibility, ethical responsibility, philanthropic responsibility by the literature review. Confirmatory factor analysis were conducted to validate the measured variables. Then the data and hypotheses were examined using structural equation modeling (SEM) by AMOS. The results are as follows. Firstly, 'economic responsibility' and 'philanthropic responsibility' have positive effect on organizational identification while 'legal responsibility' and 'ethical responsibility' have no effect on 'organizational identification'. As for the degree of influence, 'philanthropic responsibility' has a greater impact than 'economic responsibility'. Airlines should focus on the responsibility to the community as well as social contribution. Secondly, 'organizational identification' has positive effect on customer orientation. The contribution and limitations of this research were discussed and the future possible researches were mentioned.

The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) introduced a safety management system in the aviation sector for aviation safety and mandated the implementation of safety management systems and national safety programs. The activation of the airline's safety management system is not just a requirement for organizational members to create and comply with necessary regulations, but a safety culture to promote and improve flight safety must be established within the organization. Therefore, the safety culture of airlines acts as a major key variable in the safety management system that directly affects safety performance. This study compared the data from the European pilot safety culture awareness, which was the basic data of the survey, with statistics on the safety culture awareness of domestic flight attendants to analyze the differences in safety culture between the two groups.

최근 사회 전반에서 직업인식에 대한 고정관념이 점점 얕아지고 성별이나 사회적 통념과는 상관없이 자신의 적성에 맞는 직업을 택하는 사회적 변화가 일어나고 있다. 특히 최근 항공업계에서는 대표적인 여성 직업 중 하나로 인식되던 항공사 객실승무원이 되기를 희망하는 남성들이 많아지고 있고, 남성 객실승무원의 채용규모 역시 폭발적으로 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 그러나 기존 연구들을 살펴보면 객실승무원이 겪는 일반적인 스트레스요인들과 직무만족, 조직몰입과의 관계를 연구한 논의는 꾸준히 있어왔지만, 그러한 스트레스들이 남승무원/여승무원이라는 성별 차이에 따른 비교연구는 전무했다. 이에 본 연구는 역할스트레스를 구성하고 있는 요인들이 남승무원/여승무원이라는 조절변수에 따라 직무만족과 조직몰입에 미치는 연구모형을 구성하고 실증연구를 시행한다.
