In order to evaluate the effects of knowledge, attitude and practice on noise-induced hearing loss or hearing threshold level, questionnaire survey was performed and hearing thresholds of 1 kHz and 4 kHz were measured on 1,040 subjects with workers exposed to noise, safety and health officers. industrial hygienists, analysts rind office workers. The results were as follows ; 1. The following 6 factors were obtained by factor analysis and factor rotation of 30 questionnaire of knowledge, attitude and practice about noise; knowledge of noise (F1), concern of hearing protective devices (F2), concern of noise induced hearing loss (F3), concern of noise level and hearing impairment (F4), concern of noise in workplace (F5) and recognition of noised-induced hearing loss (F6). 56.1% of variance was explained by 6 factors. 2. Significant variables influencing knowledge, attitude and practice about noise were education level and age in F1, personal protective devices (PPE) and education level in F2, age and education level in F3, education level, age and sex in F4, PPE, education level, age and work duration in F5, and work duration and PPE in F6. 3. Hearing thresholds of 4 kHz were significantly higher in workers exposed to noise than that of in the other subjects and tended to be higher in industrial hygienists, safety and health officers and analysts than that of the office workers. 4. Significant variables influencing hearing thresholds of 1 kHz were age, education level, F5 and F6 in workers exposed to noise, and F1 in industrial hygienists. 5. Significant variables influencing hearing thresholds of 4 kHz were age, F6, sex, work duration, F1, F5, F2 and F3 in workers exposed to noise, F1 and age in safety and health officers, and F6, sex and F4 in industrial hygienists. With the above results, it suggested that workers exposed to noise be needed the education of knowledge, attitude and practice about noise in hearing conservation program for the prevention of noise induced hearing loss. Also, it suggested that health managers in workplace be needed countermeasures to prevent hearing loss although they are intermittently exposed to noise.

Necessity for the guidebook of occupational health nursing practice has been perceived by our OH research members since the health management of small scale enterprises(SSE) was controlled by law. Mean-while, developing the OH manual, our team found that the work situation of occupational health nursing(OHN) services should be prior to the construction of the OHN manual. This procedure was regarded as helpful for producing the OH manual which is fitting to the Korean nursing circumstances. Thus, this study was planned and carried out. The study aimed to find out current situation of work performance on occupational health nursing practice perceived by nurses working for health management of SSE. Questionnaire was distributed to the OH nurses working in the 55 group occupational health service(GOHS) agencies throughout the Korea from January to March in 1997. Ninety-seven nurses of the 31 GOHS agencies responded. Descriptive statistics was used in the SAS programme. Four nurses participated to select nursing area investigated in the study. Those area were 'document', 'job orientation', 'OH reference', 'nursing theory', 'group health education', 'health examination', 'work dilemma', 'approach attitude', 'workplace visit', 'health promotion' and 'communication'. Results can be summarized as follow : Types of document were mentioned diversely depending on the GOHS agencies. Job orientation was seen to be performed by nurses in 56% among the 75.3% nurses responded. Sixty five percents of nurses agreed to apply nursing theories into the OH with lack of knowledge on them. Health screening and health education were responded as commonly provided nursing activities with various nursing obstacles as well as indicated in the area of 'work dilemma', 'approach attitude', 'workplace visit', 'health promotion'.

우리 나라 5대 재벌그룹 기업들의 노동자 경영의사결정 참가의 실정을 단체협약과 노사협의회 규정들을 중심으로 살펴본 결과 다음의 결론들을 얻었다. 첫째, 분석대상 기업들은 장기전략 수준 및 작업현장 수준의 노사관계에서 노동자들의 경영의사결정 참가가 매우 저조한 상황에 처하여 있으므로 노사관계 주체들이 경영환경이 급변하고 있는 최근의 상황에 대하여 능동적 적극적 협력적으로 대처하지 못하는 등 대처능력 부족을 심각하게 드러내고 있다. 둘째, 이들 기업에서 단체교섭 수준의 사항들에 대하여는 단체교섭 수단으로, 장기전략 수준 및 작업현장 수준의 사항들에 대하여는 노사협의회 수단이 상대적으로 많이 활용되고 있다는 점이 발견되었다. 셋째, 노사협의회를 통한 노동자 경영의사결정 참가방식으로는 좀더 대립적인 분위기를 지닌 단체교섭과 충분한 거리를 유지할 수 있는 분리형의 형태가 참가범위의 확장이라는 면에서 보다 효율적인 것으로 생각되었다.

This study examines the role of effective human resource practices and work-life balance in various organizations and their relationship with employee engagement. The data for this study were obtained from 723 employees from various industries in Java. The result suggests that human resource practice alone did not influence employee engagement. However the human resource policy helps develop a sense of WLB for an employee, which in the long run will affect the level of engagement. Thus, work-life balance enables the relationship between employees and their workplace. This study also encompasses current literature regarding huan resource policies in understanding employee engagement through work-life balance. This study provides exploratory findings regarding HR function practices, WLB, and employee involvement in service organizations. It proved that participants from four organizations reported very positive impressions about HR practices and they were also very involved in their work and organization. While their balance still needs to be improved, this may imply that the participants are not happy with their work lives. The main finding of this study is that WLB plays a mediating role in the relationship between HR practices and employee engagement. This means that organizations need to find ways to help employees achieve a better WLB.

Background: The objective of the present study was to specifically divide the various work performed by dental hygienists in clinical practice for legal amendments regarding problems associated with conflict between job roles and illegal delegation to establish key basic data for legislation and policy utilization for realization of legal scope of dental hygienists. Methods: The study used work reports drafted based on research methods in the "Second Job Analysis Report on Dental Hygienists" researched by the Korean Health Personnel Licensing Examination Institute in 2012 and "Opinions of Dentists on Actual and Legal Work of Dental Hygienists," a report published by the Korean Dental Hygienists Association. Of these, the study focused on conservation dentistry, pediatric dentistry, prosthodontics, oral and maxillofacial surgery, and dental implant treatment, which make up some of the fields covered by dental hygiene practice, to investigate and analyzed work performed by clinical experience. Results: Analysis of work actually performed in dental practice showed that for work related to 33 items presented in the study methods, the participants responded that they are currently performing such work or are likely to perform such work in the future, although there were differences by year. Investigation by type of workplace showed that dental hygienists working in university hospitals could perform the work presented if they had ≥5 years of dental hygienist experience, whereas dental hygienists working in dental clinics or hospitals could perform simple duties in their first year and performed more diverse duties with greater degree of difficulty after their second to fourth year. Conclusion: The reality that medical assistance during surgical operations and various procedures that is still being performed is no longer legally protected directly contradicts the needs in dental practice, and thus, there is the need to amend laws that are realistic by clearly recognizing the work of dental hygienists.

이 연구의 목표는 1990년대말 이래 비정규직 확대와 함께 '위기후 한국노동시장'에서 심화되어 온 불평등의 조직적 메카니즘을 설명하는데 있다. 현재 한국사회에서 확산, 심화되고 있는 불평등은 개인이 아니라 젠더, 고용지위 등 개인이 속한 범주의 위치에 좌우되는 경향이 농후하다. 정규-비정규로 구분되는 고용형태는 단순히 특정 고용계약관계에 대한 지시어가 아니라 불평등 담론의 지형내에서 지위범주로 제도화되었으며, 젠더 등 오랜 기간 노동시장 격차에 작용해 온 여타 사회 범주와 결합해 노동시장 불평등을 고착하는데 기능하고 있다. 이 연구는 희소한 조직자원에 대한 접근능력을 기초로 자원접근과 보상의 배타성을 주장(claims making)하는 기존 내부자집단과 주변적 지위로 분류되고 배제된 외부자 집단간 관계적 불평등(relational inequality)에 주목하고, 한국의 맥락에서 관계적 불평등을 재생산하는 실질적 조직 관행(practices)으로서 연공성 임금의 역할을 분석하였다. 조직이 연공성 임금에 의존할수록 해당 조직의 비정규, 특히 여성비정규직의 비중이 체계적으로 증가하며, 정규직과 비정규직 간 임금 격차 역시 의미있게 증가한다는 점을 분석적으로 제시함으로써, 내부자가 이익 재생산을 위해 명시적 혹은 암묵적으로 요구하는 연공 임금체계가 노동시장 분절에 관계한다는 점을 입증하였다.
