Purpose: This study examined the work-related musculoskeletal pain and quality of life of hospital workers. Methods: Self-reported questionnaires were sent to 350 hospital workers at Seoul and Gyeonggi-do, of which 341 were returned. The questionnaire had four items that covered the demographic information, areas of musculoskeletal problems, pain rating scale, and quality of life. The analysis was completed using descriptive statistic, and the differences between pain and demographic variables were identified using a chi-square test. The differences between the type of occupation and quality of life were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance and a Kruskal-Wallis test. Results: The 12-month prevalence of work-related musculoskeletal pain was 86.1% of physical therapists, 86.5% of occupational therapists, 77.1% of dental hygienists, and 75.8% of nurses. A significant difference in the general and work related variables was observed between the subject with a physical burden and type of occupation. The most affected pain sites of the physical therapist included low back, hand and wrist, shoulder, and neck. The occupational therapists included the hand and wrist, shoulder, neck, but the nurses and dental hygienists reported the shoulder, back, hand and wrist. A significant difference in the quality of life was noted between the subjects in physical therapists and dental hygienists and the subjects in the nurses and occupational therapists (p=0.00). Conclusion: These findings show that hospital workers appear to be high risk for work-related musculoskeletal pain, and the quality of life of physical therapists and nurses was higher than that of dental hygienists and occupational therapists.

Purpose As non-face-to-face work environments become common due to COVID-19, interest in online collaboration tools that can communicate smoothly without time and space limitations is continuously increasing. Most of the prior studies are about the introduction, use intention, and satisfaction of cloud computing-based collaboration tools, and studies on the effects of collaboration tools on work-life balance and quality of life are somewhat lacking. Therefore, in this study, the characteristics of cloud computing-based collaboration tools were derived, and the effect on job satisfaction during work and job stress outside of working hours was confirmed. Design/methodology/approach This study applied the S-O-R framework and conducted an online survey of office workers who used cloud computing-based collaboration tools for more than three months. Hypotheses were tested using structural equations. Findings As a result of the analysis, among the characteristics of collaboration tools, stability, usefulness, and interoperability had higher job satisfaction as more stimuli were applied. In addition, the higher the job satisfaction during work, the higher the job performance, work-life balance, and quality of life.

In this paper, we attempted to theorize the multi-faceted impacts of smart work on economic activities. In this vein, we adopted socio-economic perspective which includes individual, firm, and social support aspects, and explored the variables related to the quality of life among them. First, smart work patterns are categorized as telework, mobile office, teleconferencing, and social collaboration. And relevant variables are extracted with reference to industrial cases and relevant literatures which investigated economic impacts of digital convergence. Next, with the data collected from experts, following delphi method, validation of variables and explorations of significant factors affecting quality of life were conducted by adopting stepwise regression method. The distinguishing traits of this research are two-folds. The one is the investigation of social support and quality of life aspects of smart work, which has been relatively limited in the digital convergence research field. The other is the comparative analysis of smart work advantages by distinguishing individual and firm aspects separately. The result offers useful insights for socio-economic perspective researches on digital convergence application area.

본 연구의 목적은 국내 Y세대 조리사를 대상으로 근로생활의 질, 심리적 조직몰입 및 이직의도의 인과적 영향 관계를 규명하는 것이다. 본 연구의 목적을 달성하기 위하여 국내 호텔, 개인외식업체 및 프랜차이즈 외식업체에 근무하는 조리사 207명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 획득된 자료를 분석하기 위해서는 SPSS 18.0을 이용하여 빈도분석, 탐색적 요인분석, 신뢰도 분석, 회귀분석 및 PROCESS Macro 분석을 실행하였다. 분석 결과, 본 연구에서 근로생활의 질은 개인적 품질과 사회적 품질의 2개 요인으로 구성되었다. 근로생활의 질을 구성하는 1개의 요인은 모두 심리적 조직몰입에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 그러나 근로생활의 질과 이직의도의 관계에서는 개인적 품질만이 이직의도를 저하시키는 것에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 사회적 품질과 이직의도의 관계는 유의하지 않은 것으로 확인되었다. 심리적 조직몰입은 이직 의도에 부(-)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 심리적 조직몰입은 근로생활의 질(개인적 품질, 사회적 품질)과 이직의도의 관계에서 매개 작용이 유의한 것으로 확인되었다. 이러한 결과에 따른 시사점이 연구의 결론부분에 논의되었다.

Results: Factor analysis results of the revised QWNL-K demonstrated that it has a four-factor structure (work context, support systems for home/work life, work design, and staffing) that supports construct validity. Factor loadings of the 36 items ranged from .30~.77. The QNWL-K showed reliable internal consistency from Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ for the total scale of .93. Conclusion: The findings support that the QNWL-K has satisfactory construct validity and is a reliable measure of nursing work life in Korea.
