In the construction project, construction supervisor influences greatly the construction managements such as process management, quality management, safety management, and cost management. Therefore, from the first stage of the project, the managing activities of the supervisor are consistently needed. But the assesment of supervisor's work and cost has not been made enough in the public construction project. And there have been doubts as to whether a supervisor can take a consistent managing activity from the early stage of the project. Accordingly, the works between Korean supervisor and foreign supervisor in their public corporations are analyzed and compared in this paper. And the evaluation is made each of the cost for supervisor and the cost for engineer as a substitute of supervisor in construction project. This study is believed to contribute to improving the supervisor's work and reducing the personnel expenses and construction indirect cost.

Background: This study examines whether employee perceptions of supervisor behavioral integrity for safety moderates the relationship between top-management safety climate and safety performance (i.e., safety compliance and safety participation) and the mediated relationships through safety motivation. Methods: Data collected from 389 blue-collar employees were analyzed using latent moderated structural equation modeling. Results: The results indicate that the relationship between top-management safety climate and safety behavior, and the mediating role of safety motivation were replicated. Moreover, the results show that the mediated relationships between top-management safety climate and safety behaviors through safety motivation were stronger for employees who report high supervisor behavioral integrity for safety. Conclusion: The study findings suggest the role of supervisor behavioral integrity for safety in clarifying how the employee perceptions of top-management safety climate transfer to the employee safety behaviors through the motivational pathway.

Purpose: This study was done to analyze the effect of supervisor-focused impression management behavior of the airline cabin crew on perceived customer empathy. It focused on verifying dual meanings of the crew's emotional expression divided into surface acting and deep acting. Research design, data and methodology: The survey was conducted on cabin crews of two major Korean airlines. The reliability and validity of each variable used in the questionnaire were verified. Then, each hypothesis was analyzed through multiple regression analysis. Results: Firstly, the crew's supervisor-focused impression management behavior had a significant effect only on surface acting of the crew's emotional labor behavior. Among the crew's supervisor-focused IM behaviors, verbal IM behavior had a greater influence on surface acting than non-verbal IM behavior. Secondly, there was no relationship between the crew's supervisor-focused IM behavior and the crew's deep acting. Thirdly, the crew's emotional labor behavior (surface acting & deep acting) had a significant effect on perceived customer empathy. Fourth, the crew's deep acting had a greater influence on perceived customer empathy than surface acting. Conclusions: Cabin crews receive double evaluation from their immediate supervisors and customers. As a result, it was confirmed that the crew's supervisor-focused IM behavior, the crew's emotional labor behavior, and perceived customer empathy were connected process.

Executive safety leadership is essential to prevent accidents in the workplace. However, will safety be secured by emphasizing only executive safety leadership to workers? In this study, the impact of executive safety leadership on the workplace hazard level was analyzed by adding the supervisor's safety role as a mediating variable. This paper shows that executive safety leadership has no direct effect on workplace hazard levels. However, executive safety leadership was found to have a significant impact on the supervisor safety role, and the supervisor safety role was found to lower the hazard levels in the workplace. In summary, executive safety leadership was found to reduce the hazard levels in the workplace through the full mediating effect of the supervisor safety role. Based on these research results, this study seeks to present the following recommendations to the government and management: The government should ensure that a workplace safety and health system is established by strengthening the effects of other mediating factors, such as strengthening the role of supervisors who are actually responsible for workplace safety and health. Executives must grant supervisors actual authority and responsibility to properly perform their safety roles and establish personnel and performance evaluation systems.

The purpose of this research was to verify the mediating effects of countertransference management ability and each of its subscales, i.e. self-insight, self-integration, empathy ability, anxiety-management, and conceptualizing skills, in the effect of supervisor supports on psychological burnout of novice counselors. For this purpose, 202 novice counselors who have experience of supervision less than 3 years in counseling experience were studied. The results of the analysis were as follows : First, The supervisor supports were positively related to countertransference management skill and all its five subscales. Additionally, supervisor supports, countertransference management skill, and its five subscales were proved to negatively related to psychological burnout. second, The verification of mediating effects of countertransference management skill in the relationship between supervisor support and psychological burnout demonstrated the complete mediation. third, The self-integration, empathy ability, anxiety-management completely mediated the relationship between supervisor supports and psychological burnout. and The self-insight, conceptualizing skills partially mediated the relationship between supervisor supports and psychological burnout. These results confirmed that countertransference management skill is a strong influential factor between supervisor supports and psychological burnout. Implications for clinical practice and directions for future research were also discussed.

In this vein, the purpose of this study was to examine the effect of supervisor support and co-worker support on knowledge sharing and the mediating effects of work engagement. 328 employees from varity of organizations located in Korea particiapted for questionnaire survey. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data. The result has shown that the static correlation exists between supervisor support, co-worker support and work engagement. Co-worker support had positive influences on knowledge sharing intention. However, supervisor support did not have any influence on knowledge sharing intention. There was a mediate effect of work engagement between both of supervisor and co-worker support and knowledge sharing intention.
