The purpose of this study was to apply a PERT-type system, a combination of the project evaluation and review technique(PERT) and critical path method(CPM) on the employees' work time management of flood preparation, assembly, transportation and cleaning in home-delivered meals program for elderly The resources allotment heuristic program was developed by considering the number of employees and cooking utilities, being limited resources of home- delivered meals program. This program could assign the employees to perform the works included in flood preparation, assembly, transportation ind cleaning. Critical path and activities ware identified by PERT-type system on the basic of work time investigation in five senior centers. Work sheets were invented to perform the work by the shortest path with flexible employees'maximum flow As a result of the work time investigation, the most prevalent activities were ones of preparation in center C and E. Besides, the preparation(over fifty percent) was the most proportion among flood preparation, assembly, transportation and cleaning in center C and E. Critical path and activities of 'C'center were cucumber in sauce preparation path and assembly, wrapping in assembly path and case delivery in transportation path. Critical path and activities of 'E'center were Pan-fried Potato Preparation Path and assembly, case covering, wrapping in assembly Path. The work sheet invented by the heuristic program and PERT-type system reduced the work completion time and man hours in both centers.

본 연구는 테이핑 요법이 슬관절의 등속성 기능 및 통증에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 슬관절 부위에 통증을 호소하는 $65{\sim}70$세 여성 노인 12명을 대상으로 슬건근, 대퇴사두근, 슬개골 부위에 폭 5cm의 테이프를 8주 동안 주당 3회씩 총 24회를 적용시킨 후 등속성 근 기능인 최대근력, 상대근력, 근 지구력(총 운동량), 근 지구력(운동피로도), 동측 근력 비율, 주관적 통증정도인 시각적 상사 척도와 구술적 평정 척도의 변화를 분석한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 즉, 8주간의 테이핑 요법 후 최대근력, 상대근력, 근지구력(총 운동량), 동측근력비율은 각각 유의하게 증가하였고 (p<.05; p<.01), 근지구력(운동피로도) 및 시각적 상사 척도와 구술적 평정 척도 점수가 각각 유의하게 감소하였다(p<.05).

본 연구는 한국과 일본의 노인복지시설종사자들의 업무저해요인 및 안전문화인식을 비교하기 위하여 실시한 비교서술연구이다. 연구대상은 일본 'N'시 지역 노인복지시설 근무 종사자 460명과 한국의 K도의 'A'시, 'S'시에 소재하는 노인복지시설 근무 종사자 220명으로 총 680명 이었다. 연구기간은 2018년 4월 1일부터 8월 30일까지 이었으며, 자료는 ${\chi}^2$- test, t-test, ANOVA로 분석하였다. 연구결과 업무저해요인은 한국과 일본 두 집단 간의 유의한 차이는 없는 것으로 나타났다. 안전문화 인식에서는 한국 노인복지시설 종사자들이 일본 노인복지시설 종사자들 보다 안전문화인식의 수준이 유의하게 높게 나타났다. 또한 양국 모두 업무저해요인이 적을수록 안전문화인식을 잘 하는 것으로 나타났으며, 업무저해요인이 안전문화인식에 영향을 미치는 변인으로 나타났다. 이에 본 연구결과는 안전문화인식을 높이고 업무저해요인을 감소시키기 위한 근무환경개선과 인적자원관리 전략수립의 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이라고 기대된다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study were to compare working condition, socioeconomic status, and health status between elderly and non-elderly workers and to examine the influencing factors of health status according to age groups. Methods: This study is a secondary analysis of data extracted from the 2014 Korean Working Conditions Survey. For the present analysis, 15,980 elderly workers over the age of 55 and 32,037 non-elderly workers under the age of 55 were selected. Results: The prevalence of subjective unhealthy status and poor mental health were significantly higher among the elderly workers than the non-elderly workers. The elderly workers were more likely to have lower level of education and income than the non-elderly workers. They also reported less support from colleagues and managers, however, have more decision authority. Among the elderly workers, long working hours, awkward posture, physical environmental risks, quantitative demand, decision authority, social support, age discrimination, education level, and income level were significant predictors of subjective health status or mental health. Conclusion: For keeping elderly workers healthy and productive, work environment needs to become more age-friendly. An age-friendly workplace may include: accommodative support, workers' participation, minimization of environment risk, etc.

본 연구는 노후소득보장제도의 노인 빈곤 영향요인에 관해 근로를 중심으로 살펴보았다. 이를 위해 한국복지패널 7차~16차 자료를 바탕으로 패널로짓분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 노인 빈곤에 영향을 미치는 인구사회학적, 경제, 건강변수를 통제하더라도, 노후소득보장제도 중 국민연금 수급액과 특수직역 연금 수급액은 노인 빈곤과 부정적으로 연관되어 있다. 반면에 기초연금 수급액과 국민기초생활보장 수급액은 노인 빈곤과 긍정적으로 연관된 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 국민기초생활보장 수급 노인이 근로를 하는 경우 탈빈곤 가능성이 높은 것으로 밝혀졌다. 이는 빈곤완화효과를 높이기 위해서는 기초연금제도의 재구축이 필요하고, 국민기초생활보장제도와 노인일자리 정책과의 결합이 필요함을 시사한다. 끝으로, 전반적인 노인빈곤을 완화하기 위해 기초연금, 퇴직연금을 포함한 다층노후소득보장체제의 재구축을 제언하였다.

Corresponding to the rapid growth of the aging population without an adequate social safety net for the elderly, older people face great disadvantages due to sudden illness or poor health and a lack of support from the younger generation. Furthermore, older women are suffering from a drastic deterioration of their economic status because of insufficient retirement savings. Examining the impact of labor force participation and living arrangement on health status and life satisfaction in later life, it is important to consider gender differences in context of social policies for the elderly. Using data based on a stratified national sample of the elderly by the Korean Longitudinal Study of Aging (KLoSA), multiple regression model were used to estimate the relationships between labor force participation and health status and subjective life satisfaction concerning the quality of their later life. The result indicates that good health status and high level of life satisfaction are associated with the type of paid work status for the elderly men, but those are associated with the type of non paid work, such as family businesses employees for the elderly women. Significant differences in chronic health condition and subjective life satisfaction by employment characteristics are found among the elderly. In addition, older women's high level of life satisfaction was associated with the participation of the social activity. The major conclusion from these results should help us understand gender differences in the elderly and acknowledge further exploration of gender variations in these people's later life.

This study investigates the mediation effects of adult children's ambivalence for elderly parents in the relation of psychological well-being of middle aged children with dependence and the intrusiveness of elderly parents that examines the difference of mediation effects by children's gender. We collected data from 659 middle aged children of 40 to 59 years old who have living mother or father. The main findings are as follows. First, there were mediation effects of ambivalence for elderly parents in the relation between psychological well-being of middle aged children and dependency and intrusiveness of elderly parents. The perceived dependence and intrusiveness of elderly parents had a positive influence on the ambivalence of middle aged childen for their elderly parents. Ambivalence for elderly parents had a negative effect on the psychological well-being of middle aged children. In addition, the dependence and intrusiveness of elderly parents did not directly influence the psychological well-being of middle aged children. Second, the mediation effect of ambivalence for elderly parents indicated a gender difference of middle aged children. The dependence of elderly parents affected the ambivalence for elderly parents in the woman group and the intrusiveness of elderly parents only affected ambivalence for elderly parents in the man group. The results were discussed in terms of gender difference.
