The purpose of this study was to set the standard man-hour of welding work. The case study was conducted at C Tech where makes and installs conveyor. Because most of orders are non-fixed, all jobs are vary in shape and size. To conduct this study, drawings of sample were reviewed and compared with measured man-hours of welding works. As a result, the different ratio of expected require man-hour and measured man-hour was 4%. It is reasonable that the present applied efficiency of aimed man-hour is 85%.

Objectives : The objective of this study is to compare the circadian patterns of heart rate variability assessed by 24-hour ambulatory electrocardiographic (ECG) recordings during day shift and night shift among the workers in the 5 days-concecutive-12-hour shift in an automobile factory in Korea. Methods : The study population consisted 300 workers, who were randomly selected among the 8700 total workers in one car factory. To analyse circadian variation, the 24-hour ECG recordings (Marquette) were measured during day shift (08:00-20:00 h) and night shift (20:00-08:00 h). Analysis was performed for all time and frequency domain measures of HRV. 233 workers completed taking 24-hour ECG recordings. Results : This study shows that the 24 hourcircadian variation mainly follows work/sleep cycle rather than day/night cycle among shift workers. This study also shows that among the night shift, the circadian variation between work and sleep cycle decreased compared to the work/sleep cycle among day shift workers. All time and frequency domain parameters (except LF/HF ratio) show significantly different between work and sleep in the day shift and night shift. Conclusion : These changes in heart rate variability circadian rhythms reflect significant reductions in cardiac parasympathetic activity with the most marked reduction in normal vagal activity among the shift workers. Especially, it suggests the circadian rhytm has blunted among the night workers. The quantification of the circadian variation in HRV can be a surrogates of workers' potential health risk, as well as suggests possible mechanisms through which the shift works compromise workers' health.

This study was conducted to analyze the physical strain with heart rate monitor in timber harvesting operations in order to reduce occupational accidents. The timber harvesting activities are manual cutting(felling, limbing and bucking) with a chainsaw and extraction by cable yarder. The study took place on Japanese larch stand. The average height was 26m and average diameter at breast height(DBH) was 3 7cm. The havest unit was gentle slope to steep slope. Results showed that the heart rate increases for chocking, felling, limbing and bucking were 94.0%, 87.9%, 84.8% and 56.4% respectively. The rate of Work Load Index was higher in the limbing(61.4%) activity than other activities chocking(55.2%), felling(54.1%) and bucking(32.1%). During 50% working heart rate test it was found that limbing(1.09), chocking(1.05) and felling(1.04) was exposed to high work intensity compared to bucking(0.83). The results showed that maximum acceptable work times(felling, chocking and limbing) were 2.30 hour, 1.85 hour and 1.60 hour respectively. To avoid occupational accidents, timber harvest workers may use a suitable working hour schedule to felling, chocking, limbing.

항공운송산업의 선진극인 독일에서는 1994년 새로 제정된 근로시간법(Arbeitszeitgesetz)에서 통상 8시간을 1일 최대근로시간으로 규정하여 1주일간 근로시간을 48시간으로 규정하는 한편, 6개월 또는 24주 이내의 기간을 기준으로 1일 평균 8시간을 넘지 않는 범위 내에서 1일 8시간을 초과하여 10시간까지 근로시키는 것을 가능하게 함으로써 변형근로시간제를 채택할 경우 특정 주의 근로시간을 최대 60시간까지 가능하게 하고 있다. 그리고, 근로시간법에서는 1일 근로의 종료에서 다음 근로의 개시까지는 최소 11시간의 휴식시간을 부여하도록 함으로써 근로자가 1일 동안 사용자의 지휘하에 놓이는 시간의 상한을 13시간으로 제한하는 독특한 입법형식을 취하고 있다. 한편, 근로시간법 제5조, 제7조, 제14조, 그리고 제15조에서는 항공기승무원등과 같이 특수한 형태의 근로를 하는 직종에 대해서는 일반원칙의 적용을 배제하는 예외조항을 두고 있으며, 점포영업시간법에서도 특정한 경우에 대해서는 동법의 적용을 배제하는 예외조항을 두고 있다. 이라한 예외규정에 따라 제정된 행정명령인 항공운송사업자에 관한 2차 볍규명령(2.DV LuftBO)에서는 개별 항공기승무원의 블록시간, 비행근무시간, 휴식시간 등에 대해 자세한 제한규정을 설정하고 있다. 특히, 다른 나라에서는 찾아보기 어려운 시차를 고려한 휴식시간 부여기준 연장이라든가 최대비행근로시간을 1일 20시간까지 가능하도록 직접 규정하고 있는 것은 항공기승무원의 건강을 유지할 수 있도록 함으로써 항공안전을 확보하는 한편, 항공운송산업의 현실을 정확히 반영하고 있다. 독일의 이러한 입법방식은 항공기승무원들의 근로시간 및 휴식시간에 대해 근로기준법과 항공법에서 각각 규정함으로써, 일반 업종 근로자들에게 적용되는 근로기준법의 규정과 항공기승무원들의 근로특정을 고려한 항공법의 규정을 중첩적으로 준수하여야 함으로 인해 각종 문제점을 노정하고 있는 우리나라도 참고하고 도입할만한 우수한 입법으로 판단된다. 아울러 향후 제정될 JAR 부속서 Q에도 반영되어 유럽국가 모두에 적용되어야 할 우수한 제도이다.

Background: This study was designed to identify the effect of the taping on the forward head posture during computer work. Methods: Twenty healthy adults were statistically assigned into 2 groups, the taping group (n=10) and the control group (n=10). In order to induce delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), twenty subjects performed isometric exercise of the neck on Bobath table for 20 minutes. During the experiment, subjects in taping group were attached Kinesio-tape on their upper trapezius. By using 2-D motion analysis, measurements were taken before taping, at 24 hour, 48 hour, and 72 hour after inducing DOMS. The effects of taping were evaluated by the angle of the head. Results: The results of this study were as follows; 1) There was no significant difference between the taping group and the control group (p>.05). 2) The control group had no significance, but the taping group shown a significance on the angle of head during computer work (p<.01). The interaction of group x period also shown a significance (p<.01). Conclusion: From these result, it was revealed that the taping therapy on upper trapezius could improve the angle of head during computer work.

Rapid change of surroundings has been influencing the work environment for cooks, making it more convenient; however, there are still many difficulties to improve. Especially, cooks are exposed to lots of occupational diseases due to tension and pressure as well as noise, high temperature and humidity in their work place. This study examines cooks' operational exhaustion caused by cooking operation and cooking circumstances. The analyzed result shows the job fatigue related to the general features of the cooks(such as charged cooking part, types of engaged business, class of position, cooking career, and working hours). For example, pains on the neck, back, arms and wrist are mostly affected by the charged cooking parts. Effects related to the types of engaged business, backaches usually occurred in Catering, pains in shoulder from serving at hotels and eye-tiredness from meal serving. As for working hours, most of backaches occurred from over 13-hour-work, and pains in shoulder and eye-tiredness under 8-hour-work. Pains in legs, tiredness, and the change of weight do not have any relations withthe general features of the cooks statistically(p>0.05).
