The purpose of this study is to analyze the status of the work-life balance of married working women. For this purpose the eight married working women who care for 1 or more pre-school child(ren) were interviewed. The questionnaire used was consisted of 4 themes : 1) child care, 2) working situation, 3) the work-life balance and 4) the need to improve related policies. Through the interviews and data analysis we found the following : 1) Accessibility to educarecenter was considered the most important factor for working moms when they choose an educarecenter. In order to improve accessibility of educarecenters we have to install more educarecenters with various level. 2) All respondents look maternity leave and they evaluated that other services were very weak in terms of quality, usefulness and accessibility. 3) Many childcare services aid in creating work and family balance, however they are not effective. Therefore future policies should focus on providing more options for working women for appropriate services according to childcare needs, working conditions and preferences.

This study is to examine current child care support policies and their limitations and to make some suggestions by means of statistics and previous literature. Major findings are as follows: First, As the women have younger children, the effect is more negative. Second, a maternity leave of Korea is 90 days, which is below ILO standard. Moreover, it is not well supported by the companies they work for. Third, the increasing number of men has spent a paternity leave since the pertinent law was enforced in 2001. The rate of spending the leave, however, is not as high as expected, because it has not yet been decided whether the leave would be paid or not. Lastly, the number of the employer-supporting child care center is rather few due to the legal standard of the facility and the expense that a company should cover. Only 46.5% of the companies that has been appointed to obligatorily establish the center now operate the facility. Therefore, child care support policies should be reformed or improved to help reduce married women's child care burden obviously hindering women from being employed, and this will consequently promote their economic activities. It is also urgently required to expand the application of the parental leave in terms of both object and scope. It is important that employers and employees get ready to compromise each other on the wage issue during the leave. In addition, the flexibility in period and form of the parental leave and the connection of working places with local community for better child care service must be taken into consideration.

This study was carried out to investigate foodservice management practices of 100 child care centers nationwide, and to provide background information for developing foodservice management policies at child care centers. Approximately 20% of the child care centers had a separate dining room; most of the centers were vulnerable to sanitation or safety problems. The percentage of the centers that planned menus was about 60% and 10% established standardized recipes. Fourteen percent of the centers kept records for distribution and menu evaluation and 33% kept sanitation management records. Since only 7% of the centers employed a dietitian, foodservice in most centers were not managed by professionals. The results of menu assessment revealed that 56.5% of the national/public child care centers received 19 points or higher out of 21 points, whereas 5.6% of the private child care centers received the same scores. Proper usage and storage of raw food, sanitary management of equipment and facilities, waste management/leftover food treatment, and basic facility of cooking zones were performed well by many centers. The overall scores of foodservice performance were only 31.2 out of 60 points, representing relatively poor safety management, food procurement management, and facilities and equipment management. These results indicate that the foodservice management of the child care centers are in a relatively poor state. Since nutrition management of the most centers was performed by non-professionals, it may not be possible to provide proper nutrition for health and normal growth of preschool children and to perform efficient nutrition education programs. The following suggestions are strongly recommended in order to improve foodservice performance at child care centers. First, foodservice administration should be performed by a dietitian, and second, efforts should be focused on strengthening nutrition and sanitation management.

본 연구에서는 일본 자녀양육지원정책의 변화와 더불어 지역사회 내 자녀양육지원 거점으로서 보육소의 기능 및 역할에 대하여 살펴보았다. 이를 통하여 한국 자녀양육지원정책 및 보육시설의 나아갈 방향에 대한 시사점을 제공하는 데 목적이 있다. 본 연구의 분석 자료로 일본 내각부의 소자화사회 대책 백서, 보육소보육지침 등 국가 수준의 문헌들을 중심으로 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 일본 자녀양육 관련 정책은 국내외 자녀양육 환경의 변화 및 사회적 요구를 파악하여 지역사회 구성원 모두를 위한 중장기적이고 포괄적인 정책을 도입함과 동시에 자녀양육에 대한 사회적 인식 개선을 도모하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 2001년 "아동복지법" 일부 개정에 따른 보육사 자격의 법정화, 2008년 일본 보육소보육지침(보육소 보육 가이드라인)의 고시화에 따라 지역사회 내 자녀양육지원의 일환으로 가정에 근접해 있는 보육소의 역할이 대두되었으며, 지역사회의 공적 자원으로 개방되어 활용됨으로써 보육소의 사회적 책임이 명시되었다. 이를 바탕으로 한국 지역사회 내 자녀양육지원거점 기관으로서 어린이집의 역할 및 기능에 대한 재고가 필요함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 지역사회 내 어린이집 및 부모들과 같은 실제 관계자들에 대한 목소리에 귀를 기울일 것이 요구된다. 나아가 지역사회 내 구성원 간 협력을 통하여 자녀양육에 대한 이해 및 가치를 공유하고, 그와 관련된 정보를 교환할 수 있는 공동의 장(場) 활성화를 도모하여야 한다.
