According to the results, sanitation and environment satisfaction degrees of contract-managed college food services were higher than those of self-operated food services.

In all categories comprising the food service satisfaction, the satisfaction degrees were lower in female students than in male students. There were more negative self-perceived clinical symptoms in female students than male students. The higher the negative self-perceived clinical symptoms scores were, the lower the satisfaction degrees with food service were, which suggests that かe health state of students was one of the factors that influenced college food service satisfaction. There was no difference between contract-managed and self-operated food services in terms of satisfaction with overall food taste and overall satisfaction degree. The average satisfaction degree for the contractmanaged food services in terms of price relative to food quality was lower than that for self-operated food services.

It is surveyed that the main reason to separate from food service is dissatisfaction to wage followed by six reasons. In the light of management the separation of employees gives management a positive aspect, but the separation of necessary employees bring about a big problem. That the separation rate of food service industry which greatly depends on personal service is high causes many bottleneck to development of food service industry. If the saparation rate of employees is high, it is difficult to maintain consistency of service quality. It is impossible to think that immature service new employee gives customer strong impression. Subsequently the spending of time and cost to train new employees and management reproaching supervisors makes morale of employees dropped. That is why the very this influences selling. To improve the vicious cycle of that serve absence in food service Operators of food service industry should be escaped from their fixed ideas. It is time to need management consciousness which wants to have real content rather than external growth. It is revealed that more than 80% of investment of most of food service industry goes to facility investment. A part of the investment cost should be invested to foster professional manpower. And if employees can have owner consciousness by continuous support and positive investment in training which can give real intention to their lives and vocational pride, it is believed that the future of food service industry in Korea is promising.
