"low and old age trend" is a big social national problem in korea but also in foreign countries. The Government pursues a policy for aged people to take part in construction site as labours. Low childbirth and avoidance of 3D work kinds lead to exposure of aged workers to industry work places. According to korea department of labour, it is expected that 18% of total economic activity people in 2008 to 27.2% in 2018 be increased with age of more than 55 old years. Therefore, It is needed that more countermeasures for old workers should be taken for safer work conditions. This old workers with more than 55 old years contain major portion of accident occurrence in construction industry. It is found that accident rate in construction industry can be decreased if appropriate technical safety training is provided to them who wish to work at construction sites. Statistic analysis such as frequency, cross, logistic regression using program package SPSS 13.0 has been made after collecting questionnaire survey of more than 330 workers at construction sites.

This research provides practical data to develop UV protection masks and dust protection masks. It surveyed uncomfortable factors and significant characteristics for masks. It used 653 subjects 20-79 years old and performed the research from April to May in 2014. Wearing masks at outdoor activities is not widely popular yet, but golf players, mountaineers and old people were quite interested in masks. People mainly wore a basic shape mask, but main age group of each mask shape was different. People usually prioritized the protection function and comfort of wearing over design; however, women, young generation and people attending to outdoor activities longer than 1 hour considered design quite important. People going on picnic or camping consider mask characteristics most important. Therefore, various mask shapes and protective functions should be developed to reflect consumer needs. Meanwhile, the discomfort levels of masks were not too high, but old people felt more discomfort than young people. The most discomfort factors were 'other's eye', 'distracting face movement' and 'feeling of foreign object'. They also mentioned falling problem of C shape mask and short-rib shape mask, and asked for a 'tighter fit' at the ear.

조선에 투항한 왜인을 항왜라 한다. 특히 임란전후에 수많은 왜인들이 조선인이 되어 살았는데, 고전 서사에서 이들의 모습이 어떻게 드러나는지 이글에서 살폈다. 고전서사에서 항왜는 주로 칼솜씨가 좋은 용맹한 인물들로 소개되며, 그러므로 그들은 각종 전쟁의 상황에서 전공(戰功)을 세우는 것으로 드러난다. 홍세태의 "김영철전"과 권칙의 "강로전" 및 김충선에 대한 인물전 등에서 이런 모습이 드러난다. 이런 작품에서, 항왜인들은 조선의 은혜에 감사하면서 오랑캐인 후금(後金)(이후 청(淸))을 치는 데에 앞장서는 모습을 보인다. 항왜인들이 이런 충성의 모범으로 그려짐으로써, 충성을 다해야 하지만 실제로는 그렇지 못했던 인물들의 불충이 상대적으로 부각되도록 그려졌다. 하지만 서사에서 의도적으로 항왜인들의 일면만을 강조되는 것과 달리, "검승전"에서는 항왜 개인의 고민과 갈등을 엿볼 수 있다. 이런 고민은 조선인이나 일본인이나 인간의 성정은 공통된다는 점을 보여줌으로써 서로 이해하며 어우러져 살 수 있는 가능성을 보여주기도 한다.

The recent increase of old people will potentially bring about a grave socio-economical effect. Thus, the system of reemploying them should be effectively pursued. Their reemployment, along with the rearrangement of work places and the development of jobs meeting their physical, mental and psychological characteristics, will help keep up their productivity and safety as well. The change of physical functions arising from age increase can be blown from a comparison with those of young people. This study concerning the aged people's speed of judgment and limbs movement in comparison with young counterparts, I hope, will aid in designing the old population's proper jobs and work places.

In many countries the demographics clearly informs us that an aging population represent a serious problem. To this extent senior citizens welfare does matter it has developed into a public debate and genuine concern. it seems that the social issues are focused on how the socity views the social welfare policies. In a modern welfare state where the emphasis lies in pursing a high standard of living and thereby high quality of life. This does not cover the very well the old people in society, but the government clearly carries an obligation to look after and care for the retired & old people in the society. This obligation the social and economic impact that an old person faces as he/she grows old. it is important ensure that their lives carries a meaning and that they as a group will not be estranged from the mainstream of society just because they are considered to be part of the aging population. The key issues that must be addressed are 1) The impact of reduced spending power from less income. a lower income stream; 2) increasing health problems and costs; 3) the natural degradation of ones physical & mental powers; 4) and thereby an isolation from the public in general. So clearly the social policy related to the old people in society should be developed with the consent of what they believe is important to them. To ensure their minimum income level that a beneficiary of an old person's pension will receive, the monthly pension should be reflected by the official price index and be adjusted accordingly. by making the job market open for the senior citizens, expending the mandatory retirement age, give companiesincentives to hire senior citizens, there maybe an opportunity to extend to the aging population the possibility to continue to participate in the society at large.
