In order to create a worker-friendly environment for institutional foodservice, facilities operating with a dry kitchen system have been recommended. This study was designed to compare the work safety and work environment of foodservice between wet and dry kitchen systems. Data were obtained using questionnaires with a target group of 303 staff at 57 foodservice operations. Dry kitchen facilities were constructed after 2006, which had a higher construction cost and more finishing floors with anti-slip tiles, and in which employees more wore non-slip footwear than wet kitchen (76.7%). The kitchen temperature and muscular pain were the most frequently reported employees' discomfort factors in the two systems, and, in the wet kitchen, "noise of kitchen" was also frequently reported as a discomfort. Dietitian and employees rated the less slippery and slip related incidents in dry kitchens than those of wet kitchen. Fryer area, ware-washing area, and plate waste table were the slippery areas and the causes were different between the functional areas. The risk for current leakage was rated significantly higher in wet kitchens by dietitians. In addition, the ware-washing area was found to be where employees felt the highest risk of electrical shock. Muscular pain (72.2%), arthritis (39.1%), hard-of-hearing (46.6%) and psychological stress (47.0%) were experienced by employees more than once a month, particularly in the wet kitchen. In conclusion, the dry kitchen system was found to be more efficient for food and work safety because of its superior design and well managed practices.

The purpose of this study is to examine how the perceived physical environments of hotel kitchens influence cooking employees' internal responses. According to the analysis results of this study, except Hypothesis 2 which was rejected in this study, all the hypotheses were partially accepted. These results support the research hypotheses of this study that comfort, spatiality, and convenience as physical environments will have significant effects on emotional response and cognitive response. Also, equipment use as convenience had statistically significant effects on both emotional response and cognitive response whereas working environment as comfort and kitchen circulation and working space as spatiality had no effect. Therefore, kitchen environment should be set up in the direction of guaranteeing kitchen convenience to the maximum, and the further researches on the constituent factors which have no effect on emotional response and cognitive response should be proceeded continuously.
