  • 목적 : 본 연구는 복지국가의 개념과 사회복지영역을 살펴보고, 우리나라 장애인복지정책의 발전을 비교 분석해 보기 위함이다. 연구방법 : 문헌고찰을 통하여 복지국가의 개념과 사회복지의 영역을 기술하였고, 우리나라의 사회복지정책과 장애인정책을 각 정부별로 비교 분석하였으며 마지막으로 노무현 정부의 장애인정책을 분석하였다. 결과 : 경제성장과 더불어 복지정책과 장애인복지정책은 '선택적 복지'에서 '보편적 복지'의 형태로 발전하였다. 사회복지정책의 영역에 있어서도 과거 이승만 정부시절의 '최소한의 보장'에서 노무현 정부의 '참여복지'에 이르기까지 영역의 확대가 이루어지고 있으며 이러한 현상은 장애인 복지정책에서도 나타나는 현상이다. 결론 : 지역사회 작업치료사는 오늘날 '보편적 사회복지'의 큰 틀에서 등록 장애인 뿐 만 아니라 지역사회의 드러나지 않는 장애를 지닌 일반인과 노인을 위한 방문재활서비스와 같은 미 충족 작업치료서비스를 발견하고 제공해야 할 것이다.

  • 본 연구는 우리나라 기업복지가 지속적으로 성장할 것이라는 기존 연구들(1990년대 초 중반)의 전망을 경험적으로 검증하였다. 분석결과, 외환위기를 전 후로 한 노동력 유연화의 결과 기업복지는 축소되었으며 비용통제가 가능하고 비용효율적인 선택적 복리후생제도의 도입, 고정비용적이기보다는 성과배분적인 사내근로복지기금출연금의 성장과 같은 현상이 나타났다. 기존 연구결과에 따르면 복지국가 위기 이후 국가복지 축소/기업복지 확대의 경로를 보인 국가들도 있지만 국가복지확대/기업복지 축소의 경로를 보인 국가들도 있다. 우리나라는 국가복지확대/기업복지 축소의 한 경험적 사례로 제시될 수 있다.

  • 20세기 말기에 접어들면서 선진국가의 복지구도가 경제와 사회분야가 분리지향적이며 국가단일주도형 복지국가에서 통합지향적이며 민관공동 주도형태로 전환하는 추세 속에서 기업복지의 중요성은 점차적으로 부각되고 있다. 그러나 한국기업복지제도는 자체의 생산성향상기능이 의문시되면서 IMF의 개입으로 인해 야기된 산업분야의 전면적 구조재조정의 여파 속에서 위기를 맞고 있다. 한국기업복지제도가 기업복지의 대상인 근로자의 수요, 욕구, 기호 등을 도외시한 채 사용자의 편의 위주로 무분별하게 제공되어온 기업복지는 근로자의 사기진작이나 직무만족도 향상을 통해 생산성을 높이는 기능이 제대로 이루어지지 못하고 있으며 그것은 기업복지무용론으로 직결되는 현실에 처해 있다. 이러한 상황에서 과학적이고 체계적이며 수혜자위주의 진일보한 기업복지제도로서 근로자협조프로그램이 본 논문에서 실제적 대안으로 제시되었으며 그 프로그램의 정의, 실시동기, 기능, 주요요인, 모형이 소개되었고 역사적 변천배경과 경제적 효율성(비용효과)이 상세히 기술되었다. 근로자협조프로그램의 설립 필연성과 적절성에 대해 심도있는 분석이 가해졌으며 미래의 대안이 구체적 목표로 자리잡기 위해 수행해야 할 과제가 제시되었다 이러한 노력은 갈림길에 서 있는 한국기업복지제도에 새로운 돌파구를 마련해 줄 뿐만 아니라 사회복지계 전체분야를 활성화하는 효과가 있고 여태까지 소홀히 취급되었던 분야를 다시 개척함으로서 사회복지계에 새로운 지평을 열고 넓히는 의미가 있다.

  • Here, we present a case of lung cancer in a 48-year-old male horse trainer. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first such case report to include an exposure assessment of respirable crystalline silica (RCS) as a quartz. The trainer had no family history of lung cancer. Although he had a 15 pack/year cigarette-smoking history, he had stopped smoking 12 years prior to his diagnosis. For the past 23 years, he had performed longeing, and trained 7-12 horses per day on longeing arena surfaces covered by recycled sands, the same surfaces used in race tracks. We investigated his workplace RCS exposure, and found it to be the likely cause of his lung cancer. The 8-hour time weight average range of RCS was 0.020 to $0.086mg/m^3$ in the longeing arena. Horse trainers are exposed to RCS from the sand in longeing arenas, and the exposure level is high enough to have epidemiological ramifications for the occupational risk of lung cancer.

  • Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an important cause of occupational mortality in miners exposed to coal mine dust. Although the inflammatory mediators involved in COPD have not been defined, many studies have shown that inflammatory mediators such as reactive oxygen and nitrogen species are involved in orchestrating the complex inflammatory process in COPD. Methods: To investigate the relevance of exhaled biomarkers of oxidative and nitrosative stress in participants with COPD, we determined the levels of hydrogen peroxide, malondialdehyde (MDA), and 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT) in exhaled breath condensate (EBC) in 90 retired elderly coal miners (53 non-COPD and 37 COPD participants). Results: Mean levels of MDA (4.64 nMvs. 6.46 nM, p = 0.005) and 3-NT (3.51 nMvs. 5.50 nM, p = 0.039) in EBC were significantly higher in participants with COPD. The median level of MDA did show statistical difference among the COPD severities (p = 0.017), and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve forMDA (0.67) for the diagnostic discrimination of COPD indicated the biomarker. The optimal cutoff values were 5.34 nM (64.9% sensitivity and 64.2% specificity) and 5.58 nM (62.2% sensitivity and 62.3% specificity) forMDA and 3-NT, respectively. The results suggest that high levels ofMDA and 3-NT in EBC are associated with COPD in retired elderly miners. Conclusion: These results showed that the elevated levels of EBC MDA and EBC 3-NT in individuals with COPD are biomarkers of oxidative or nitrosative stress.

  • A 46-year-old man who had worked as a bumper spray painter in an automobile body shop for 15 years developed lung cancer. The patient was a nonsmoker with no family history of lung cancer. To determine whether the cancer was related to his work environment, we assessed the level of exposure to carcinogens during spray painting, sanding, and heat treatment. The results showed that spray painting with yellow paint increased the concentration of hexavalent chromium in the air to as much as $118.33{\mu}g/m^3$. Analysis of the paint bulk materials showed that hexavalent chromium was mostly found in the form of lead chromate. Interestingly, strontium chromate was also detected, and the concentration of strontium chromate increased in line with the brightness of the yellow color. Some paints contained about 1% crystalline silica in the form of quartz.

  • The purpose of this study is to analyze occupational history of coal miners with pneumoconiosis. In this study, occupational characteristics of 49 coal miners with pneumoconiosis were compared with those of 45 coal miners without pneumoconiosis but in similar age category($43{\sim}52$ years of age) based on interview survey. Various indices on occupational characteristics were developed for the following areas: duration of employment, perception of working condition, working density, dust concentration, temperature, humidity, and experience of respirator wearings. Perception of working condition were measured in 5 points scales but experiences of respirator wearing was measured in 3 points scale. Each index was multiplied by duration of employment. From the analysis, only the experience of respirator wearing showed statistically significant difference between the two groups. Therefore, respirator wearing seemed to be effective in reducing occurrence of pneumoconiosis.
