  • 본 연구는 사회적기업과 영리기업에 종사하는 근로자들을 대상으로 셀프리더십이 조직성과에 미치는 영향을 비교분석하기 위한 것이다. 이를 위하여 충청남도내 사회적기업과 영리기업 36개, 근로자 303명을 조사하였다. 주요 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 사회적기업과 영리기업에 근무하는 근로자의 특성차이 분석결과 사회적기업에 종사하는 근로자들이 영리기업 근로자들에 비해서 여성, 고연령자, 저임금근로자가 많았다. 사회적기업이 정부의 사회적 일자리지원에 의하여 여성, 노인 등 취약계층을 저임금으로 고용하고 있기 때문이다. 둘째, 사회적기업과 영리기업의 셀프리더십과 조직성과 차이를 분석한 결과 사회적기업 근로자의 셀프리더십이 영리기업에 비해 대체로 높은 것으로 나타났다. 아울러 사회적기업 근로자들이 영리기업에 비하여 사회적 성과와 경제적 성과를 높게 평가하고 있었다. 셋째, 셀프리더십이 조직성과에 미치는 영향을 분석한 결과 사회적기업과 영리기업 모두 셀프리더십이 조직성과에 정적으로 영향을 미치고 있었다. 특히, 사회적기업이 영리기업에 비해 조직성과가 높았다. 따라서 사회적기업의 조직성과를 높이기 위해서는 근로자들에 대한 지속적인 조직비전과 목표에 대한 공유노력을 통하여 기업경쟁력을 높이는 것이 필요하다.

  • 전반적인 사회의 고령화 추세에 따라 민간경비에 종사하는 노인근로자의 비중은 갈수록 증가하고 있다. 그러나, 노인경비원에 대한 선행연구는 아직 많지 않고, 특히, 노인경비원이 폭력피해를 당할 위험에 상당 부분 노출되어 있어 그들의 폭력피해 경험에 대한 실태조사가 시급하다. 본 연구는 전국의 55세 이상 노인경비원을 표본으로 추출하여 그들이 경험한 신체적 언어적 폭력피해에 대해 설문조사를 시행하였다. 또한, 폭력피해 경험의 여부가 노인경비원들이 인식하는 직무스트레스의 수준에 영향을 주는지 알아보았다. 결과에 따르면, 설문에 참여한 노인경비원들은 신체적 폭력피해보다 언어적 폭력 피해를 더 많이 경험한 것으로 응답하였고, 직장 내 상사나 동료보다는 고객으로부터의 폭력이 더 많은 것으로 나타났다. 직무스트레스와 관련하여 언어적 폭력피해를 경험한 노인경비원이 그렇지 않은 경비원에 비해 직무스트레스를 더 많이 느끼고 있었다. 신체적 폭력피해의 경험은 유의미한 결과를 보이지 않았다. 노인근로자를 대상으로 행해지는 신체적 언어적 폭력을 감소시킬 수 있는 제도적 장치의 마련이 필요하다.

  • Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) poses an important occupational health risk to health workers (HWs) that has attracted global scrutiny. To date, several thousand HWs globally have been reported as infected with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 virus that causes the disease. It is therefore a public health priority for policymakers to understand risk factors for this vulnerable group to avert occupational transmission. A rapid review was carried out on 20 April 2020 on Covid-19 risk factors among HWs in PubMed, Google Scholar, and EBSCOHost Web (Academic Search Complete, CINAHL Complete, MEDLINE with Full Text, CINAHL with Full Text, APA PsycInfo, Health Source-Consumer Edition, Health Source: Nursing/Academic Edition) and WHO Global Database. We also searched for preprints on the medRxiv database. We searched for reports, reviews, and primary observational studies (case control, case cross-over, cross-sectional, and cohort). The review included studies conducted among HWs with Covid-19 that reported risk factors irrespective of their sample size. Eleven studies met the inclusion criteria. Lack of personal protective equipment, exposure to infected patients, work overload, poor infection control, and preexisting medical conditions were identified as risk factors for Covid-19 among HWs. In the context of Covid-19, HWs face an unprecedented occupational risk of morbidity and mortality. There is need for rapid development of sustainable measures that protect HWs from the pandemic.

  • 신종 코로나바이러스감염증(COVID-19)의 확산을 막기 위해 사회적 거리두기가 시행됨에 따라 재택근무를 하는 근로자가 늘고 있다. 본 논문은 물리적 근로환경에 따라 재택근무가 가능한 직업 및 산업군을 분류하고, 재택근무가 가능한 일자리와 그 지역적 분포를 분석하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 근로환경조사의 원시자료를 활용하여 일자리의 업무 환경과 특성을 파악하였다. 분석 결과, 전체 일자리 중 35%는 재택근무가 가능하며, 그 비율이 낮은 직종일수록 임금 수준이 낮고 종사상 지위가 불안정한 근로자의 비중이 높게 나타난다. 또한 고용이 제조업에 집중된 지역은 그 산업구조와 업무 특성으로 인해 재택근무가 가능한 일자리의 비율이 매우 낮게 나타난다.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the influences of job insecurity on job related depression and anxiety in large- and small-sized company employees. Methods: Data of the third Korean Working Condition Survey in 2011 were used. Subjects were 2,050 large-sized company employees and 18,924 small-sized company workers. $x^2$ test and multiple logistic regression using SAS 9.2 were conducted. Results: Large- and small-sized company employees showed significant differences in terms of demographic, health-related, and job-related characteristics. From the bivariate analysis, gender, income, self-rated health, occupation, working hours per week, job-related stress, workplace violence, and job insecurity were significantly related to job-related depression/anxiety in large-sized company employees. From the multivariate analysis, higher income (AOR: 0.22, 95%CI: 0.07~0.71), better health perception (AOR: 0.05, 95%CL: 0.01~0.18), 40 or more working hours per week (AOR: 0.20, 95%CI: 0.05~0.79) showed lower risk for job-related depression/anxiety. From the bivariate and multivariate analysis, better health perception (AOR: 0.32, 95%CI: 0.20~0.53), higher job-related stress (AOR: 2.57, 95%CI: 1.68~3.93, workplace violence experience (AOR: 4.26; 95%CI: 2.88~6.30), and job insecurity experience (AOR: 1.90, 95%CI: 1.18~3.05) were significantly related to job-related depression/anxiety in small-sized company employees. Conclusion: Results of this study suggest that job insecurity experience was significantly related to job-related depression/anxiety in small-sized company employees but not in large-sized company employees. Therefore, small-sized company workers who have experienced feeling of job insecurity are vulnerable population in terms of job-related depression/anxiety.

  • With a rapid growth of domestic industry in korea, now about 25,000 kinds of chemicals are being distributed, and it has been known that just about 15% of them has toxic substances. Recently, South Koreans have an anxiety about the stability and accidents of chemicals because chemical accidents like Gumi hydrofluoric acid accident have occurred. The U.S. has adopted the systems like EPCRA (Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act), TRI (Toxic Release Inventory) and TSCA (Toxic Substances Control Act), and is also managing the hazardous chemicals by providing the information about them to its people and site workers. Japan's Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare also has adopted J-CHECK system and is implementing it to let Japanese people know the information of safety of chemicals about REACH. However, the Korean government has a difficult situation to mediate the different idea with the Korean industry to make lower statute of Pre-legislation registration & evaluation of chemicals that will be implemented and Chemical Material Control Association that is being implemented. Especially city and country areas located in the industrial areas need political improvement focusing on vulnerable area through the check about current situation of hazardous chemicals of jurisdiction and management method, but the information about the management situation of small scale work places is insufficient. Therefore this study set up the urgent management area in Ansan Smart Hub through NFPA code according to the types of accident and dander characteristics of each chemical being used in the companies that have less than 50 workers and deal with chemicals located in Ansan Smart Hub in Gyeonggi-do.

  • 혁신을 장려하는 디지털 경제에서 기업가 정신은 성공적인 혁신의 기초로서 강조되어왔다. 본 연구의 목적은 커리어 초심자들의 기업가 정신을 촉진시키는 조직 내 메커니즘을 밝히기 위해 조직 안에서의 기업가 정신적 태도가 무엇인지에 초점을 맞추고 있다. 심리사회적 관점에서 볼 때, 20대라는 질풍노도의 인생주기를 보내고 있는 커리어 초심자들은 매우 불안정하고 취약한 특성을 갖고 있다는 점을 고려할 필요가 있다. 이와 같은 이유로 커리어 초심자들을 위한 기업가 정신의 특성은 재해석되어야할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 "아틀리에"와 같은 위계적인 조직 구조가 커리어 초심자들에게 필요한 반면에 신뢰할 수 있는 리더십이 전제될 때 건강한 팀워크를 형성할 수 있다는 결론을 제시한다.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze health status of women working in traditional marketplace and their needs for public healthcare services. Methods: A descriptive survey of 500 women working at three traditional marketplaces was conducted. Results: street vendors' health status were much poorer than store merchants'. Furthermore, psychosocial factors like job stress and depression were increased in street venders. Thus, the public healthcare programs required by them included exercise programs (28.2%) and health checkup (26.8%). In addition, 31.2% of the participants reported that they needed visiting nursing care services. The rate of occupational health and safety or employment insurances was as low as 10.8%. Conclusion: Effective interventions including psychosocial factors for women workers at traditional marketplaces need to be developed based on these results. Also, it is recommended that public health care services such as outreach services and visiting nursing care services for women working at traditional marketplaces be provided. Furthermore, institutional provisions such as insurances for protecting these vulnerable groups' health are needed.
