본 연구는 노인장기요양기관 종사자인 요양보호사들의 직무환경과 관련된 속성 및 스트레스와 소진을 파악하고 이들 요인이 직무만족에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 효과를 분석하여 요양보호사의 조직업무를 향상시켜 노인의 삶의 질과 노인복지 발전에 도움이 되는데 목적을 갖고 연구하였다. 연구대상은 전북 군산시에 소재한 노인장기요양기관(요양시설, 재가노인복지시설)에 근무하는 요양보호사 129명을 대상으로 하였다. 분석결과 요양보호사의 직무환경의 하위요인으로 인적환경과 보상체계, 업무전문성 등이 직무소진, 직무스트레스, 직무만족에 유의적인 영향을 미치는 요인임을 실증시켜 주었다. 이는 그만큼 인적환경을 위한 업무전문성 및 능력과 혁신적 사고를 가진 업적에 비례한 보상체계가 잘 되어 있을수록 긍정적인 관계 형성과 동시 직무소진과 스트레스의 감소 및 직무만족이 향상됨을 의미한다. 이는 최근 장기요양을 위한 노인성 환자의 급증과 장기요양기관에서의 요양보호사의 역할과 직무가 중요시되는 현실에 비추어 볼 때 전문직으로서의 다양한 복지 수혜적 봉사자로서의 요양보호사들의 직무환경 개선을 위한 직무전문화 보장과 이들 직무능력에 따른 적절한 보상시스템의 체계화가 필요시 됨을 시사한 것으로 볼 수 있다. 따라서 직업에 대한 자긍심이 높은 전문 인력의 배출과 참여로 요양보호사의 잦은 직무소진과 스트레스를 낮출 수 있는 경감요인을 찾아 제거함으로써 보다 많은 인력의 참여와 조직헌신을 통한 직무만족 극대화를 통해 조직몰입을 높일 수 있을 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to identify the level of care-givers' knowledge, their attitude towards the elderly and their stress levels within the job, and to apprehend the cause which has had an influence on job stress. The research subjects were 230 care-givers who work in a sanitarium for the elderly in the East of Jeollanamdo. The tool used to measure their knowledge of the elderly was FAQ1 and the semantic differential scale was used to determine the attitude. Job stress was measured by the tool which was used by sun-ju Park. The data analysis was carried out by SPSS Win 13.0. The results of this study are as follows; The care-givers' knowledge level point towards the elderly was relatively low at 44.6%. The average point of attitude toward the elderly was 3.91, which is relatively moderate. The percentages of job stress was generally low. The results showed us that there was no correlation with the knowledge level of the elderly, the attitude towards the elderly and job stress. Since the results indicated that care-givers' knowledge level for the elderly was low, we reached the conclusion that further education where care-givers can get general knowledge for the elderly and aging is necessary. Moreover, research for strengthening positive attitudes towards the elderly is also necessary.

The purpose of this study is to classify playground types according to the physical characteristics of playgrounds in child care facilities, to analyze the needs of care-givers and to evaluate the adequacy of playgrounds according to playground types. The specific areas discussed in this study were the evaluation of the adequacy in the physical characteristics of playgrounds for children's outdoor play activities by the care-givers, who assist in the outdoor play activities of children and manage safety in the playground, and a report on playground requirements of them. Data was collected from field survey carried out to investigate the physical characteristics of playgrounds of 21 child care facilities. This survey incorporated a structured-questionnaire for the purpose of evaluating the adequacy of the physical characteristics of playgrounds (location and size of the playground, play equipments, the composition of play areas, ground covers, and location of sidewalk in the playground) by the 181 care-givers from the facilities and investigating the needs of them. The major results showed the following. 1) In field survey, it was observed that while the location and the size of the playgrounds varied widely, ground cover, play equipments, and the composition of play area turned out to be identical, regardless of the location and the size of the playgrounds. 2) The playgrounds were classified into five types according to the number of children and the size of the playground. The five types include A-type as a large-scale facility/smallsize playground, B-type as a small-scale facility/large-size playground, C-type as a small-scale facility/small-size playground, D-type as a middle-scale facility/large-size playground, and E-type as a large-scale facility/large-size playground. 3) The adequacy of the physical characteristics of playground in the D-type was evaluated to be higher than that of the other types. The adequacy of the C-type playground was evaluated to be lower than that of the other types in terms of size and the composition of play areas within the playground. 4) The care-givers of the D-type and the E-type playground expressed a desire to install various play equipments, while the care-givers of the C-type playground did not wish to install play equipment. 5) Various outdoor play areas were needed in the D-type playground.
