There are many accident risks in logging operation of forestry such as struck by felled trees and caught in, under, or between felled trees. These accidents are primarily occurred by not keeping a safe distance between workers. According to the forestry safety instruction, workers are not supposed to go into the safety zone which is a circle with a radius of more 2 times the height of felling tree. However, this rule does not keep because of poor safety consciousness, poor sight and extreme noise of logging operation machines. This problem causes many major accidents every year. To solve this problem, we made forestry safety helmets based on IoT technology. These helmets have functions to make a visual and an acoustic alarm signal when reach the distance between workers within 20 meters. We developed the algorithm to operate the helmet's functions and conducted tests to check the functions. As a result of tests, we assured the normal system operating conditions.

The necessity of improving manning standards in the Ship Officer's Act has recently been strongly advocated by the fisheries industry. The fisheries industry maintained the position of the relaxation of current manning standards. However, the Labor unions, Marine Officers Association, and Radio Officers' Association persisted to strengthen the standards or to keep the current standards. This paper studies the appropriateness of current manning standards and processes its improvement scheme to secure the safe operation of vessels.

In this paper, we describe about the user terminal tagging-based embarkation/disembarkation management system and embarkation/disembarkation management method using this system. The system authenticates the validity of the user and on whether to board on the ship by tagging the user's terminal which the boarding reservation was made by using the management terminal provided in the ship. The system identifies on whether the user disembark in the ship by tagging the user's terminal. In the event of ship accident, it is easy to figure out the user and manage the non-contact boarding and disembarking. Therefore, we design the embarkation/disembarkation management system based on user's terminal tagging on the terminal provided in the ship and embarkation/disembarkation management method using this system. User terminal tagging can solve the problem of manpower required for the management of embarkation and disembarkation, the problem of requiring time to confirm the match between the reservation and the passenger, and the problem of increase of the possibility on the spread of infectious diseases due to face-to-face contact.

Singapore, an island republic of over 5 million inhabitants, has 3.1 million workers. Most are employed in the service, finance and tourist/transport industry. Significant numbers work in manufacturing, construction and heavy industry. Following a series of construction and shipyard accidents with multiple deaths in 2004, the government announced its intention to reduce workplace fatalities from 4.9 to 2.5 per 100,000 by 2015. There was strong political will to achieve this target. The strategic approaches were to build workplace safety and health (WSH) capabilities; implement legislative changes with enforcement; promote benefits of WSH and recognize best practices, and enhance partnership with stakeholders. The anticipated outcomes were to reduce workplace fatality and injury rates; have WSH as an integral part of business; and establish a progressive and pervasive WSH culture. With these measures, the workplace fatality rate declined from 4.9/100,000 in 2004, to 2.2/100,000 in 2010. However, other confounding factors could also account for this decline, and have to be considered. The next target, announced by Singapore's Prime Minister in 2008, is to further reduce the workplace fatality rate to 1.8/100,000 by 2018, and to have "one of the best workplace safety records in the world".

Credit cards are more convenient than cash of heavy. Therefore, credit cards are used widely in on_line (internet) and off_line in nowadays. To use credit cards on internet is commonly secure because client identification based security card and authentication certificate. However, to use in off_line as like shop, store, department, restaurant is unsecure because of irregular accident. As client identification is not used in off_line use of credit cards, the irregular use of counterfeit, stolen and lost card have been increasing in number recently. Therefore, client identification is urgently necessary for secure card using in off_line. And the method of client identification must be simple, don't take long time, convenient for client, card affiliate and card company. In this paper, we study a reform measure of the structure and transaction process for the safety improvement of a credit cards. And we propose several authentication method of short-and long-term for client identification. In the proposal, the client authentication method by OTP application of smart-phone is efficient nowadays.

Recently, as the number of Smart Phone users increase, the simple payment system has been able to make payments using only card information such as a registered password without extra authorized certificate authentication or input of card information. In this paper, it will examine and analyze simple payment system provided by IT companies and financial institutions and the simple payment system that operates global online payment system by case view of operational direction. Then with this examination, it will study ways to improve the problems with terms of convenience and stability in terms of users. In this paper, it will analyze the inconvenient problem in using the QR code system that recently introduced and will propose solutions. Also, it will propose suggestions to solve inconvenience that caused by system that supports NFC simple payment terminal in Korea is not universalize by analyze case study on the overseas simple payment system. It will also propose opinions on the matters that customer having responsible for event of a small financial accident related to loss or theft when using the simple payment system. Then it will suggest expected requirements to prepare new security technical countermeasures and solve the conditions of meeting expectation satisfaction of users.

Although the safety management plan review system according to the Construction Technology Promotion Act for securing the safety of the construction work is a fundamental system essential for the prevention of the construction industry disaster, the necessity of its improvement has been raised because it often fails to meet the original purpose. In this study, through the analysis of the effect of the safety management plan and the problems of the operation, we suggest ways to improve it in view of the construction accident reduction and conducted surveys on the construction site through the questionnaires of the client, construction company, and construction business technology manager. In order to improve the effectiveness of this system as a result of the study, it is necessary to distribute the guidelines for the preparation of the safety management plan, manuals, etc., to simplify the contents of the safety management plan, also the step-by-step approval of the safety plan can be a solution. For this, it is necessary to revise the policy through consultation with the Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs and related experts.

Human errors are now considered as the most significant source of accidents or incidents in large-scale systems such as aircraft, vessels, railway, and nuclear power plants. As 61% of the train accidents in Korea railway involving collisions, derailments and fires were caused by human errors, there is a strong need for a systematic research that can help to prevent human errors. Although domestic railway operating companies use a variety of methods for analyzing human errors, there is much room for improvement. Especially, because most of them are based on written papers, there is a definite need for a well-developed computerized system supporting human error analyzing tasks. The purpose of this study is to propose a framework for a computerized human error analysis system focused on the railway industry on the basis of human error analysis mechanism. The proposed framework consists of human error analysis (HEA) module, similar accident tracking (SAT) module, cause factor recommendation (CFR) module, cause factor management (CFM) module, and statistics (ST) module.
