  • 최근 공산품에 나노기술의 활용이 점점 확대되고 다양한 나노제품이 출시되면서 나노물질의 인체 및 환경에 대한 유해성 문제가 주요한 사안으로 대두되고 있다. 이러한 위험성을 인식하여 EU 및 미국 등에서는 나노물질에 대한 규제를 강화하는 추세이다. 그러나 현재 국내에는 나노관련 법규가 미흡한 형편이다. 무엇보다도 소비자에게 밀접한 공산품의 나노물질 규제정책은 소비자의 안전을 위해 시급히 요구되고 있다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 규제정책 도입을 위한 기반연구로서 공산품에 함유된 나노물질에 대한 규제정책 도입을 위한 분석을 실시한다. 본 연구에서는 AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) 기법을 적용하여 규제정책을 평가하고 가장 적합도가 높은 최적 규제정책을 선택한다. 규제정책은 자율규제, 제품라벨링, 정부등록제를 대상으로 하며 정책평가기준은 시행성(효과성), 경제성, 수용성, 보호성으로 설정한다. 평가 결과 최대 적합도를 가지는 제품라벨링 정책을 최적 규제정책으로 선택한다.

  • Objectives: South Korea's occupational safety and health legislation appears on the surface to have stronger regulations than any other country, but it is criticized for having many problems when viewed from the perspective of the effectiveness and universality of these regulations. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the validity of the regulatory content and the methods for contract work in South Korea. Methods: The main issues in contract work are compared and analyzed in terms of the occupational safety and health laws systems in South Korea and other developed countries. Based on this, problems related to contract regulation are derived from the perspective of legal policy studies. In addition, effective improvement measures for the derived problems will be proposed. Results: Other developed countries impose obligations suitable for the status and role of persons who entrust work in consideration of the fact that they do not directly manage risks and in terms of the effectiveness of industrial accident prevention. These countries generally impose obligations such as management of facilities and machinery, cooperation and coordination with subcontractors, cooperation and coordination obligations between subcontractors, and guidance obligations on a person who entrusts a work. Conclusions: It is difficult to achieve effectiveness in preventing accidents with based on unreasonable regulations that do not conform to safety principles or legal theory. Regulations on contract work need to be converted to rational cogent regulations based on science and rationality, not ideology and emotion. To this end, the legal system for contract work must have international universality.

  • Risk assessment techniques are processes used to evaluate hazardous risk factors in construction sites, facilities, raw materials, machinery, and equipment, and to estimate the size of risk that could lead to injury or disease, and establish countermeasures. The most important thing in assessing risk is calculating the size of the risk. If the size of the risk cannot be calculated objectively and quantitatively, all members who participated in the evaluation would passively engage in establishing and implementing appropriate measures. Therefore, this study focused on predicting accidents that are expected to occur in the future based on past occupational accident statistics, and quantifying the size of the risk in an overview. The technique employed in this study differs from other risk assessment techniques in that the subjective elements of evaluators were excluded as much as possible by utilizing past occupational accident statistics. This study aims to calculate the size of the risk, regardless of evaluators, such as a manager, supervisor, safety manager, or employee. The size of the risk is the combination of the likelihood and severity of an accident. In this study, the likelihood of an accident was evaluated using the theory of Bud Accident Chainability, and the severity of an accident was calculated using the occupational accident statistics over the past five years according to the accident classification by the International Labor Organization.
