Results: The perception of sexual harassment was 7.1, which was lower than that of other occupations. The perpetrators of visual, verbal, and physical sexual harassment appeared in the order of patients, coworkers, and guardians. Psychological and physical stresses were higher than the average due to damage caused by sexual harassment, requiring some attention. Work stress showed an average level. With the higher perception, a negative correlation was observed in the face of mitigation (p<0.001). Conclusion: The number of victims of sexual harassment is increasing every year. To cope with sexual harassment, there should be a department capable of counseling and processing in the workplace, and what occurs should be analyzed.

Choi et al's work [1] in 2015 demonstrated that the resident registration numbers (RRNs) of individuals could be conveniently estimated through their personal information that is ordinarily disclosed in social network services. As a follow-up to the study, we introduce the status of the RRN system in Korea in terms of its use in the online environment, particularly focusing on their secure use. We demonstrate that it is still vulnerable against a straightforward attack. We establish that we can determine the RRNs of the current president Moon Jae-In and the world-class singer PSY.

의료를 통하여 가톨릭정신을 구현하고자 하는 궁극적인 목적을 가진 가톨릭 중앙의료원(CMC)은 이 목적을 실현하기 위하여 교육ㆍ연구ㆍ진료 그리고 사회봉사활동을 하고 있다. 특히 자선진료소를 중심으로 구체적이고 조직적인 사회봉사활동을 펴고 있는데 이러한 실무는 사회사업과가 그 일익을 담당하고 있으며 자선사업을 수행함에 있어서 현대적 의미의 사회사업기술을 사용하며 봉사활동 프로그램을 개발하고 조직화하는데 기여한 바 크다. 그러나 실제 의료사회사업(Medical Social Work)의 본질을 이해하고 있는 사람은 그리 많지 않은 것 같다. 따라서 본고를 통하여 의료사회 사업의 이론적 개요와 사회사업과를 중심으로 수행하고 있는 각종 프로그램을 소해함으로써 의료사회사업에 관한 일반적 이해를 도모하고 아울러 앞으로 봉사활동설정에 도움이 되었으면 한다. <편집자 주>

Despite the fact that asbestos is a known carcinogen to humans, it is still used in industrialized countries, especially Asian countries. The global incidence of asbestos-related diseases (ARDs) due to the past use of asbestos, continues to increase, although many countries have adopted a total ban on asbestos use. The implementation of effective strategies to eliminate ARDs is therefore an important challenge in Asia, where asbestos is still mined and consumed. Collaborative efforts and strategies at the local and international levels are vital, in the pursuit toward the elimination of ARDs in this region.
