What government does/fails to do is conveyed to the public largely by records and information of various types in the public service, without which there will be no government. When records are poorly managed, much time is involved in sorting and locating needed information from large volumes of records. The rate of records misplaced or lost from which useful information for decision making is usually obtained makes it difficult to provide concise and up-to-date records of both past and present operations, raising the challenge of effective record-keeping. Thus this study examined records management practices in selected local government councils in Ogun State, Nigeria, adopting the descriptive survey research method using questionnaires for data collection. Its population comprised 415 records of personnel in the selected councils, of which 208 were sampled using simple random technique. From the 208 copies of the questionnaire administered on the registry personnel, 150 copies were useable, with a 72.12% response rate. Descriptive statistics were used for the analysis. The results indicated a prevalence of paper as the dominant medium for recording/conveying information in the councils with most of these being either in active state, semi-active, and vital and were kept and maintained in the registry, while in-active records were kept in the records store. Storage facilities for record-keeping were insufficient. Security measures against unauthorized access to records were by restrictions and subject users to managerial clearance. The study concluded that council records were in chaos and recommended the formulation of coherent records management policy, adequate budgetary provision, and adequate finance.

How health care providers compete and how competition among them affects their behavior are crucial questions in theory and health policy. In ordinary markets, competition improves social welfare, However in health care markets facing uncertainty and information asymmetry, competition can take the form of wasteful quality competition and result in cost increase. The purpose of this study is to examine the characteristics of hospital service markets and examine the impact of hospital competition on hospital behavior, more specifically hospital cost and the size of personnel. Based on patient discharge data of 2002 by the Ministry of Health and Welfare and Korea Institute for Health and Social Affairs, and health insurance EDI claims data of 2002, this study measures the degree of competition in the inpatient service market of hospitals, using variable radius method and Herfindahl index. The result of the study shows that the hospital service market consists of on average 3.13 government administrative units(shi, gun, or gu). Compared with hospitals, general or general specialized hospitals cover larger markets and operate in more competitive markets. Nearly 60% of patients use hospitals, which are not located in their government administrative units, meaning that market definition based on variable radius is better than the conventional method of market definition based on government administrative units. The results of multivariate analysis show that competition is not associated with high cost index of hospitals. But hospitals in more competitive markets employ larger(more intensive) input of personnel per 100 beds, implying that hospital competition in Korea can have the form of quality and cost-increasing competition.

한국사회에서 나타나는 저출산 현상이 심화 됨에 따라 일·가정양립을 위한 가정친화적 인사제도의 도입 및 확대를 위한 정부 차원의 다양한 정책이 시도되었다. 저출산의 주요 원인으로는 여성의 경제활동 참여 증가와 일·가정양립의 어려움이 가장 우선적으로 지목되고 있다. 여성정책의 일환으로 가정친화적 제도, 유연근무제 등 다각적인 차원에서 지원정책이 개진 되었지만 저출산의 대안으로 큰 효과를 보지 못하였다. 사회 전반적으로 저출산 현상이 미치는 부정적 영향과 파장이 커서, 공공기관을 중심으로 조직문화개선을 위한 새로운 시각의 접근법이 요구되고 있다. 이에 사회적 조직내에서의 가정친화적 제도가 갖는 의미는 시사점이 크다. 이런 시각에서 가정친화정책의 일환으로 시도된 유연근무제 등 적용되고 있는 제도의 현황을 공공기관 중심으로 파악하였다. 본 연구에서는 문헌고찰 방법을 중심으로 기존에 적용된 제도의 현황 비교를 통해 함의를 도출하였다. 가정친화정책은 제도개선의 필요성과 확장 차원에서 사회 환경변화에 맞춰 지속성을 갖고 이루어져야 할 것이다.

정보기술(Information Technology)의 변화는 IT 인력에게 계속적인 역량개발을 요구하고 있다. 그로 인해 IT 인력의 역량개발이 기술의 변화를 따라가지 못한다면 IT 조직은 도태될 수밖에 없으며 업무를 수행함에 있어서도 여타 다른 인력에 비해 큰 지장을 받게 된다. 많은 기업들이 이런 이유로 IT조직을 별도로 관리하고 있으며, IT 직무체계를 기술기반에서 정립하여 관리하려고 시도하고 있다. IT 인력의 교육이 여타 다른 인력의 교육체계와 다른 특성을 보이고 있음에도 불구하고, IT 인력의 교육체계수립에 대해 이런 특성을 반영한 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 IT 인력의 교육체계를 수립하고 그 운영방안을 제도화하기 위한 프레임워크를 제시하고 그 프레임워크에 따르는 개별 프로세스를 제시하고, 그것을 사례 연구를 통하여 비교해 보고자 한다. 제시된 프레임워크와 프로세스의 특정은 IT 인력 교육의 특성을 고려하여 구성하였다. 본 연구는 최근 IT 인력 교육체계를 수립한 A사를 사례 기업으로 선정하여, 문헌연구를 통하여 도출된 프레임워크와 프로세스와 비교하였다. 이를 통하여 IT 인력의 교육을 위해서는 IT 직무체계의 합리적 수립이 필수적이며, 이를 위해 직무기술서가 IT 직무에 적합하게 구성될 필요가 있으며, IT 인력의 경력경로를 전문인력경로와 관리인력경로로 나누고 서로 다른 교육과정을 구성한다는 사실을 도출하였다. IT 교육훈련체계를 효과적으로 계속해서 운영하기 위해서 IT 인력 교육 담당자는 교육훈련대상자를 구별할 수 있어야 하고, IT 직무별 역량과 스킬을 잘 파악하고 있어야 하며, 기술적 지식을 가지고 항상 신기술 변화와 도입을 주시하고 있어야 한다.

This study conducted from September 1 through October 30, 1993, in order to provide the data related to the industrial health policy and the development of health education program and the basic foundation. The data collected were analyzed in order to determine factors affecting knowledge and practice(KP) on health level of industrial workers. 3,396 workers were randomly selected from Kyungki, Inchun, Kwangju, Taejon, Taegu, Ulsan, Pohang, Masan and Changwon, Questionnaire forms were prepared and the personnel selected were interviewed by a graduate student with the aid of health management. As mentioned before, it was a serious problem that the industrial workers got the fairly low score of health KP and they did not practice what they know. Therefore it is necessary to establish the industrial policy and develop the education program for workers practice what they know and cooperate with related specialists, the management and the government authorities, Therefore we must ensure the good health of workers through a healthy home life, and a healthy work place and environment. Furthermore this will contribute to industrial peace and the development of korea.

Background: Breaking the chain of disease transmission from overseas is necessary to control new infectious diseases such as coronavirus disease 2019 effectively. In this study, we developed a mobile app called Self-Symptom Checker (SSC) to monitor the health of inbound travelers. Methods: SSC was developed for general users and administrators. The functions of SSC include non-repudiation using QR (quick response) codes, monitoring fever and respiratory symptoms, and requiring persons showing symptoms to undergo polymerase chain reaction tests at nearby screening stations following a review of reported symptoms by the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency, as well as making phone calls, via artificial intelligence or public health personnel, to individuals who have not entered symptoms to provide the necessary information. Results: From February 12 to March 27, 2020, 165,000 people who were subjected to the special entry procedure installed SSC. The expected number of public health officers and related resources needed per day would be 800 if only the phone was used to perform symptom monitoring during the above period. Conclusion: By applying SSC, more effective symptom monitoring was possible. The daily average number of health officers decreased to 100, or 13% of the initial estimate. SSC reduces the work burden on public healthcare personnel. SSC is an electronic solution conceived in response to health questionnaires completed by inbound travelers specified in the World Health Organization International Health Regulations as a requirement in the event of a pandemic.

The purpose of the study is to investigate the development of institutional repositories in university libraries in Nigeria. The study adopted a survey research design. Online questionnaire, IRs investigation, and interview methods were used to collect data from the 21 university libraries that have developed IRs in Nigeria. The study revealed that only few universities have successfully developed open access IRs to preserve and manage their intellectual outputs emanating from their universities. Contents such as journal articles, theses/dissertations, and conference / workshop papers were found to be the most popular contents that are hosted in the IRs. The interview revealed that although few respondents mentioned having IR policy statements in areas such as access policy, submission policy, preservation policy, content policy and copyright policy, the majority mentioned not having any defined policy in their IR. Also in the interview, inadequate fund, challenge of collecting contents for the IR, shortage of skilled ICT personnel, and inadequate facilities were the most mentioned challenges encountered in the development of IRs in Nigeria. Findings from this study will inform University Librarians, university management and policy makers on the need to provide the necessary infrastructure and formulate policies for smooth development of institutional repositories to make research visible globally. The results will therefore provide important data and insight into the development of institutional repositories in university libraries in the context of developing countries.
