The purpose of this study was to explore a typology of time allocation, investigate determinants of time allocation types, and analyze differences in time use satisfaction by the types of time use of the elderly. The data source for this research was the 2009 Time Use Survey conducted by the Korea National Statistical office (KNSO). The 4,699 time diaries (3,552 for weekday, 1,147 for Sunday) completed by the elderly over the age of 60 were analyzed using mean, standard deviation, chi-square, cluster analysis, ANOVA analysis, Duncan test, and multinomial logistic regression analysis. Time allocation of the elderly was classified into four types: personal care oriented, work oriented, leisure oriented, and balanced type. Gender, age, education, employment status, income, and the presence of spouse were identified as determinants for each type. According to the types of time allocation, time use satisfaction was different on week days.

본 연구의 목적은 시설요양보호사의 돌봄노동에 대한 긍정적, 부정적 평가를 분석하고, 근무환경과 서비스 질과의 관계에서 요양보호사의 돌봄노동 평가의 매개효과를 검증하는 것이다. 이를 위해 대구 포항지역에 위치한 노인요양시설에 근무하는 요양보호사 298명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 분석 결과, 시설요양보호사들의 돌봄노동에 대한 부정적 평가수준은 중간값 이하인 반면 긍정적 평가는 중간값 이상이었다. 근무환경은 긍정적 돌봄노동 평가에는 정(+)적 영향을 미치고, 부정적 평가에는 부(-)적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 종속변수인 서비스의 질에 유의한 정(+)적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 근무환경과 서비스의 질과의 관계에서 요양보호사의 긍정적, 부정적 돌봄노동 평가는 통계적으로 유의한 매개효과를 가지며, 부정적 평가보다는 긍정적 평가의 매개효과가 더 큰 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 요양보호 서비스의 질을 향상하기 위한 실천적 함의를 제시하였다.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to analyze the accident characteristics according to the gender of the injured workers in building cleaning and to reflect them in the Industrial Accident Prevention Policy. Background: An analysis of industrial accidents is an essential process for establishing systematic industrial accident prevention measures. In order to establish industrial accident prevention measures for workers effectively, it is necessary to analyze accident characteristics by job type for workers who do the same work. Method: In this study, we analyzed the accident characteristics of 1,645 janitors who were approved of work-related injuries in 2015. We also analyzed the characteristics according to gender by dividing them into worker-related factors and accident-related factors. Results: The accidents caused to the janitors showed different characteristics according to gender, age, work experience, agency of accident, and distribution of original cause materials. In other words, 70.2% occurred to workers over 60 years old and 56.2% occurred to unskilled workers with less than a year of work experience. In the case of accident pattern, 79.1% occurred in tripping (slip) hazards, and 68.2% of accidents occurred on the floor (including the ground) and the stairs, indicating that the accident occurred most frequently during cleaning work on the floor or stairs. Conclusion and Application: The results of the study on the accident characteristics of the janitors can be used as basic data for systematic preventive measures against accidents occurring to the elderly female workers in the service industry.

The purpose of this research was to study opinions on elderly housing and attitudes toward the problems related to elderly lives, which were due to dependence or independence in later life. The survey was conducted among middle-aged people in their fifties, living in Seoul. The final sample included 498 respondents. Since the statistical analysis was focused only on independent and dependent groups, total cases for the analysis were 373. The results of this study were as follows. Firstly, the group that was more independent in later life tended to be healthier, lived with a husband or wife, had no children, and had more monthly income and assets. Secondly, the group that was more independent in later life believed that they had the sole responsibility of resolving later life issues. The group that was more dependent believed that their family, not themselves, must resolve their later life problems. The independent group wanted to continue their work or enjoy leisure. Thirdly, the group that was more independent about elderly housing stated that they were responsible for it, while the other group stated that their family was. There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of general idea, and social interest. However, the independent group answered that more development and management of elderly housing were needed. The expected living arrangement in their later lives was similar. Also, there were no differences between the two groups in living with family or the demand for service from elderly housing.

본 연구는 장기간 노인(전문)병원 및 요양시설에서 생활하고 있는 뇌졸중 생존 노인들의 건강관련 삶의 질에 미치는 요인들이 무엇인지 규명함으로써 대상자들의 삶의 질 증진을 위한 사회복지 실천 방안들을 제언하고자 시행되었다. 연구 대상자는 충청지역 및 D 광역시 소재 노인(전문)병원 18곳과 요양시설 13곳에서 장기 입원(입소)하고 있는 55세 이상의 뇌졸중 생존 노인들이며 서베이 방법을 사용하여 직접면담조사를 실시하였다. 조사는 2008년 12월 16일부터 2009년 1월 17일까지 실시되었고, 총 328부의 설문지가 통계분석에 이용되었다. 연구결과 대상자들이 인지하고 있는 건강관련 삶의 질은 비교적 낮게 나타났고, 특히 건강관련 삶의 질을 구성하고 있는 하위 영역 중 사회적 관계 영역이 가장 낮게 나타났다. 투입된 독립변수들이 건강관련 삶의 질에 미치는 상대적 영향력은 '우울', '향후 경제적 부담감', '일상생활수행능력', '장애수용', '중복질환', '경제적 주부양자가 배우자인 경우'순으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 장기재활 및 요양서비스를 이용하고 있는 뇌졸중 생존 노인들의 건강관련 삶의 질에 질병관련 요인뿐만 아니라 심리사회적 요인, 환경적 요인 모두 중요한 영향을 미치고 있다는 것이 규명되었고, 그 가운데서도 심리사회적 요인의 영향력이 제일 큰 것으로 밝혀졌다. 이를 바탕으로 노인의료복지시설에서 생활하고 있는 뇌졸중 생존 노인들의 삶의 질을 향상시키고 더 나아가 사회복지사들의 역량을 고취시킬 수 있는 사회복지 방안들이 논의되었다.

The purpose of this study was to identify the factors determining the participation of the poor elderly in economic activity. This study analyzed secondary data of the second wave of Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing. Binary logistic regression was used to identify the factors that are associated with the economic activity of the poor elderly. The results of the analyses showed that age, gender, region, public assistance, education, health status, chronic illness, contacts with acquaintances, and support from children were associated with participation in economic activity. The study's findings have several implications for policies and services. The study identified the need for an age- and gender-specific approach to promoting participation in economic activity among the poor elderly. Regional differences should also be considered in the creation of work opportunities for older adults. In terms of human capital, the positive effect of good health indicates that strategies are needed to address the needs of older adults with health issues. In addition, there is a need for more jobs for elderly job seekers with high levels of education. Finally, policy makers and practitioners should explore interventions for enhancing the social network involvement and community support for the elderly living in poverty.
