운항승무원은 항공기 운항에 필요한 적합한 자격요건을 충족해야 하며 이를 위해서는 항공기 운항에 필요한 자격요건과 항공기간 유사성 등으로 인해 불필요한 자격요건이 무엇인지 확립되어 있어야 한다. 시카고협약은 국제민간항공에 있어서 가장 기본이 되는 국제조약이며 시카고협약 체약국은 시카고협약 부속서에서 정한 '표준 및 권고방식(SARPs)'에 따라 항공법규를 제정하여 운영 중이며, 안전하고 효율적인 기준 수립 및 적용을 위해 지속적으로 노력하고 있다. 본 논문은 운항승무원의 항공기 2개 형식 운항에 대한 ICAO, 한국, FAA, EASA 등의 국내외 기준의 차이점을 인식하고 이를 토대로 한국의 관련 제도를 개선 보완하고자 한다. 운항승무원의 항공기 2개 형식 운항에 대한 국내외 기준을 비교하면서, 한국의 관련 법규가 국제기준 대비 불합리한 측면이 있어 이를 토대로 개선방안을 제시하였다. 기본적으로 항공기 운영자는 기장 또는 부기장이 동일 형식의 비행기로 90일 내에 적어도 3회의 이륙과 착륙을 행한 경험이 없는 기장 또는 부기장을 해당 항공기를 운항하도록 승무시켜서는 아니 된다. 또한 운항승무원은 모든 운항하는 항공기 형식에 대하여 장비 및 절차에 대한 중요 차이점에 익숙해야 한다. 또한 항공기 운영자는 조종사의 조종 기능 및 비상절차 수행능력이 해당 항공기 형식에서 수행능력이 있도록 적합한 방법으로 심사가 수행되어야 한다. 이와 관련해 정기적으로 기량심사가 수행되어야 한다. 한편 항공기 운영자가 운항승무원에게 항공기 간의 유사성을 토대로 서로 다른 항공기 형식을 운항하도록 하는 경우, 항공당국은 각각의 항공기 형식을 운항하기 위한 면제 요건을 설정하여 적용할 수 있다. 결론적으로 운항승무원이 2개 형식의 항공기를 운항하기 위해서는 해당 형식 항공기 운항을 위한 유효한 자격이 있어야 하며, 이를 위해서는 이에 합당한 훈련프로그램을 이수해야 한다. 따라서 특별히 요건이 면제되거나 요구량을 축소하여 적용할 수 있는 법적 근거가 없는 한, 2개 형식 항공기를 운항하기 위해서는 항공기 형식 간의 유사성을 토대로 적용할 수 있는 진보된 훈련 프로그램이 있음에도 불구하고 각각의 항공기 형식에 필요한 모든 운항자격을 충족해야 한다. 항공기 제작사는 표준비행절차 및 안전운항을 위해 새로 항공기를 개발함에 있어서 항공기 시스템에 대하여 기본적인 틀을 유지하면서 기능을 보완 개선하고 있어 항공기 간에 표준화된 적용이 확대되고 있으며 항공기 간의 차이수준은 점차 줄어들고 있다. 또한 다양한 항공 비즈니스 출현 및 레저용 항공시장의 활성화로 운항승무원이 서로 다른 항공기를 번갈아 운항할 필요성이 점차 높아지고 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고 한국은 운항승무원의 훈련 및 운항자격프로그램과 관련하여 신규도입 항공기에 적용할 항공기 간의 차이수준에 따라 실질적으로 다르게 적용할 수 있는 관련 법규 및 체계가 전무한 상태이며, 2개 형식 이상의 항공기를 운항하기 위한 구체적인 기준은 물론 이와 관련하여 항공안전을 위해 금지하거나 제한하는 기준도 없기 때문에 항공기 운영자의 정책적인 판단에 따를 수밖에 없는 실정이다. 따라서 항공당국은 비행표준평가위원회 제도를 도입하여 비행표준평가를 통해 항공기 간의 차이수준을 분석하고 이를 토대로 운항승무원이 합당한 교육훈련 및 자격요건을 효율적으로 적용할 수 있도록 항공기 간 차이수준별 자격요건체계를 수립하여 적용해야 할 것이다. 이와 관련하여 본 논문에서는 항공기 간의 차이수준 평가 및 2개 형식 이상 항공기 운항에 대한 국내외 항공법규를 고찰하고 합리적인 제도 운영을 위한 몇 가지 개선방안을 제시하였다. 본 논문이 1) 정부, 학계 및 항공사 등 유관부문에서 항공안전증진을 위한 국제 동향을 이해하는데 도움이 되고, 2) 국내 항공법규를 개선하는데 도움을 주고, 3) 아울러, 국제표준 준수 및 항공안전증진에 기여하길 기대한다.
Much has teed changed in the field of hospital administration in the It wake of the rapid development of sciences, techniques ana systematic hospital management. However, we still have a long way to go in organization, in the quality of hospital employees and hospital equipment and facilities, and in financial support in order to achieve proper hospital management. The above factors greatly effect the ability of hospitals to fulfill their obligation in patient care and nursing services. The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal methods of standardization and quality nursing so as to improve present nursing services through investigations and analyses of various problems concerning nursing administration. This study has been undertaken during the six month period from October 1971 to March 1972. The 41 comprehensive hospitals have been selected iron amongst the 139 in the whole country. These have been categorized according-to the specific purposes of their establishment, such as 7 university hospitals, 18 national or public hospitals, 12 religious hospitals and 4 enterprise ones. The following conclusions have been acquired thus far from information obtained through interviews with nursing directors who are in charge of the nursing administration in each hospital, and further investigations concerning the purposes of establishment, the organization, personnel arrangements, working conditions, practices of service, and budgets of the nursing service department. 1. The nursing administration along with its activities in this country has been uncritical1y adopted from that of the developed countries. It is necessary for us to re-establish a new medical and nursing system which is adequate for our social environments through continuous study and research. 2. The survey shows that the 7 university hospitals were chiefly concerned with education, medical care and research; the 18 national or public hospitals with medical care, public health and charity work; the 2 religious hospitals with medical care, charity and missionary works; and the 4 enterprise hospitals with public health, medical care and charity works. In general, the main purposes of the hospitals were those of charity organizations in the pursuit of medical care, education and public benefits. 3. The survey shows that in general hospital facilities rate 64 per cent and medical care 60 per-cent against a 100 per cent optimum basis in accordance with the medical treatment law and approved criteria for training hospitals. In these respects, university hospitals have achieved the highest standards, followed by religious ones, enterprise ones, and national or public ones in that order. 4. The ages of nursing directors range from 30 to 50. The level of education achieved by most of the directors is that of graduation from a nursing technical high school and a three year nursing junior college; a very few have graduated from college or have taken graduate courses. 5. As for the career tenure of nurses in the hospitals: one-third of the nurses, or 38 per cent, have worked less than one year; those in the category of one year to two represent 24 pet cent. This means that a total of 62 per cent of the career nurses have been practicing their profession for less than two years. Career nurses with over 5 years experience number only 16 per cent: therefore the efficiency of nursing services has been rated very low. 6. As for the standard of education of the nurses: 62 per cent of them have taken a three year course of nursing in junior colleges, and 22 per cent in nursing technical high schools. College graduate nurses come up to only 15 per cent; and those with graduate course only 0.4 per cent. This indicates that most of the nurses are front nursing technical high schools and three year nursing junior colleges. Accordingly, it is advisable that nursing services be divided according to their functions, such as professional, technical nurses and nurse's aides. 7. The survey also shows that the purpose of nursing service administration in the hospitals has been regulated in writing in 74 per cent of the hospitals and not regulated in writing in 26 per cent of the hospitals. The general purposes of nursing are as follows: patient care, assistance in medical care and education. The main purpose of these nursing services is to establish proper operational and personnel management which focus on in-service education. 8. The nursing service departments belong to the medical departments in almost 60 per cent of the hospitals. Even though the nursing service department is formally separated, about 24 per cent of the hospitals regard it as a functional unit in the medical department. Only 5 per cent of the hospitals keep the department as a separate one. To the contrary, approximately 12 per cent of the hospitals have not established a nursing service department at all but surbodinate it to the other department. In this respect, it is required that a new hospital organization be made to acknowledge the independent function of the nursing department. In 76 per cent of the hospitals they have advisory committees under the nursing department, such as a dormitory self·regulating committee, an in-service education committee and a nursing procedure and policy committee. 9. Personnel arrangement and working conditions of nurses 1) The ratio of nurses to patients is as follows: In university hospitals, 1 to 2.9 for hospitalized patients and 1 to 4.0 for out-patients; in religious hospitals, 1 to 2.3 for hospitalized patients and 1 to 5.4 for out-patients. Grouped together this indicates that one nurse covers 2.2 hospitalized patients and 4.3 out-patients on a daily basis. The current medical treatment law stipulates that one nurse should care for 2.5 hospitalized patients or 30.0 out-patients. Therefore the statistics indicate that nursing services are being peformed with an insufficient number of nurses to cover out-patients. The current law concerns the minimum number of nurses and disregards the required number of nurses for operation rooms, recovery rooms, delivery rooms, new-born baby rooms, central supply rooms and emergency rooms. Accordingly, tile medical treatment law has been requested to be amended. 2) The ratio of doctors to nurses: In university hospitals, the ratio is 1 to 1.1; in national of public hospitals, 1 to 0.8; in religious hospitals 1 to 0.5; and in private hospitals 1 to 0.7. The average ratio is 1 to 0.8; generally the ideal ratio is 3 to 1. Since the number of doctors working in hospitals has been recently increasing, the nursing services have consequently teen overloaded, sacrificing the services to the patients. 3) The ratio of nurses to clerical staff is 1 to 0.4. However, the ideal ratio is 5 to 1, that is, 1 to 0.2. This means that clerical personnel far outnumber the nursing staff. 4) The ratio of nurses to nurse's-aides; The average 2.5 to 1 indicates that most of the nursing service are delegated to nurse's-aides owing to the shortage of registered nurses. This is the main cause of the deterioration in the quality of nursing services. It is a real problem in the guest for better nursing services that certain hospitals employ a disproportionate number of nurse's-aides in order to meet financial requirements. 5) As for the working conditions, most of hospitals employ a three-shift day with 8 hours of duty each. However, certain hospitals still use two shifts a day. 6) As for the working environment, most of the hospitals lack welfare and hygienic facilities. 7) The salary basis is the highest in the private university hospitals, with enterprise hospitals next and religious hospitals and national or public ones lowest. 8) Method of employment is made through paper screening, and further that the appointment of nurses is conditional upon the favorable opinion of the nursing directors. 9) The unemployment ratio for one year in 1971 averaged 29 per cent. The reasons for unemployment indicate that the highest is because of marriage up to 40 per cent, and next is because of overseas employment. This high unemployment ratio further causes the deterioration of efficiency in nursing services and supplementary activities. The hospital authorities concerned should take this matter into a jeep consideration in order to reduce unemployment. 10) The importance of in-service education is well recognized and established. 1% has been noted that on the-job nurses. training has been most active, with nursing directors taking charge of the orientation programs of newly employed nurses. However, it is most necessary that a comprehensive study be made of instructors, contents and methods of education with a separate section for in-service education. 10. Nursing services'activities 1) Division of services and job descriptions are urgently required. 81 per rent of the hospitals keep written regulations of services in accordance with nursing service manuals. 19 per cent of the hospitals do not keep written regulations. Most of hospitals delegate to the nursing directors or certain supervisors the power of stipulating service regulations. In 21 per cent of the total hospitals they have policy committees, standardization committees and advisory committees to proceed with the stipulation of regulations. 2) Approximately 81 per cent of the hospitals have service channels in which directors, supervisors, head nurses and staff nurses perform their appropriate services according to the service plans and make up the service reports. In approximately 19 per cent of the hospitals the staff perform their nursing services without utilizing the above channels. 3) In the performance of nursing services, a ward manual is considered the most important one to be utilized in about 32 percent of hospitals. 25 per cent of hospitals indicate they use a kardex; 17 per cent use ward-rounding, and others take advantage of work sheets or coordination with other departments through conferences. 4) In about 78 per cent of hospitals they have records which indicate the status of personnel, and in 22 per cent they have not. 5) It has been advised that morale among nurses may be increased, ensuring more efficient services, by their being able to exchange opinions and views with each other. 6) The satisfactory performance of nursing services rely on the following factors to the degree indicated: approximately 32 per cent to the systematic nursing activities and services; 27 per cent to the head nurses ability for nursing diagnosis; 22 per cent to an effective supervisory system; 16 per cent to the hospital facilities and proper supply, and 3 per cent to effective in·service education. This means that nurses, supervisors, head nurses and directors play the most important roles in the performance of nursing services. 11. About 87 per cent of the hospitals do not have separate budgets for their nursing departments, and only 13 per cent of the hospitals have separate budgets. It is recommended that the planning and execution of the nursing administration be delegated to the pertinent administrators in order to bring about improved proved performances and activities in nursing services.
