  • 이 연구는 근로빈곤층의 특성에 맞는 개념정의의 방법을 제안하고, 그러한 개념정의에 따를 때 근로빈곤층의 실태가 어떠한가를 규명하고자 하였다. 이는 근로빈곤층에 대한 개념정의의 방식에 따라 근로빈곤층의 특성은 상이하게 나타날 뿐 아니라, 근로빈곤층을 초점으로 하는 빈곤정책의 방향 또한 달라질 수 있다는 인식 때문이다. 이 연구에서 제안하는 개념정의에 따르면, 근로빈곤층은 '빈곤한 가구의 가구원 중 조사시점에서 지난 6개월 이내에 노동시장에서 일하거나, 구직활동을 수행한 경험이 있는 사람'이다. 이러한 개념정의는 비록 근로능력이 있지만 아동 양육 등의 활동 때문에 비경제활동인구로 존재하는 사람들을 제외시킬 수 있고, 비정규직 임금근로자나 영세자영자 등 다양한 경제활동을 하고 있는 사람들을 배제하지 않을 수 있으며, 불안정한 노동시장 지위로 인해 경제활동인구와 비경제활동인구를 넘나드는 사람들을 포함할 수 있다. 이 연구의 개념정의 방식을 따를 때, 근로빈곤층은 일반적인 생각과는 달리 남성이 여성보다 약간 더 많고, 30세$\sim$60세까지의 사람들이 60% 정도를 차지한다. 하지만 중졸 이하의 학력을 가진 사람들이 절반 가까이 된다는 점은 선행 연구들의 보고와 유사한 것이다. 근로빈곤층의 절대 다수는 어떠한 형태로든 일을 하고 있는 것으로 나타났다는 점 또한 주목할 필요가 있다. 경제활동상태별로 보면 상용직과 자영자의 비중이, 직종별로 보면 판매서비스직과 농어업직의 비중이, 산업별로는 기타서비스업과 농림수산업의 비중이 높았다. 하지만, 보다 장기적인 시점에서 파악한 근로빈곤층의 경제활동상태별 분포에서는 일용직의 비중이 상용직의 비중보다 높았다. 또한 근로빈곤층의 고용상태는 외환위기 이후 지속적으로 악화되어 왔음을 확인할 수 있었다.

The research question was 'What is the structure of the experiences of turnover among hospital nurses?' The sample consisted of 16 hospital nurses who experienced one or more turnover. The unstructured interview were carried out from July 15. through August 31., 1997. Intervewed by audio-recording and analyzed by Van Kaam's method. There were 361 descriptive expressions and priority classifications. The result summerized as 107 common elements, 38 syntheses of hypothetical definitions and 6 identifications of the structural definition. The structural definitions and hypothetical definitiones were as follows ; 1. There were different views on the turnover intention. Hard task, dissatisfaction of initial expectancy, uncomfortable relationship with doctors, inappriate reward, uncomfortable relationship with workers of other parts, uncomfortable relationship with patients, unreasonable promotion, uncomfortable relationship with co-worker, helplessness, poor environment of working conditions. 2. Motivating factor of turnover can be varied : self development, problem of social support, boring task, problem of relation-ship with the senior, unfair promotion, night duty. 3. Social supportive factors were co-worker support, senior support, self control, family support, time support. 4. There were different views on the job satisfaction. Task, relationship with patient, recognition, professionalism, promotion, working environment, relationship with co-worker, reward.

  • Interest in the Quality of working life is spreading rapidly and the phrase has entered the popular vocabulary. That this should be so is probably due in large measure to changes in the values of society, nowadays accelerated as never before by the concerns and demands of younger people. But however topical the concept has become, there is very little agreement on its definition. Rather, the term appears to have become a kind of depository for a variety of sometimes contradictory meanings attributed to it by different groups. A list of all the elements it if held to cover would include availability and security of employment, adaquate income, safe and pleasant physical working conditions, reasonable hours of work, equitable treatment and democracy in the workplace, the possibility of self-development, control over one's work, a sense of pride in craftsmanship or product, wider career choices, and flexibility in matters such as the time of starting work, the number of working days in the week, Job sharing and so on altogether an array that encompasses a variety of traditional aspirations and many new ones reflecting the entry into the post industrial era. The term "quality of working life" was introduced by professor Louis E. Davis and his colleagues in the late 1960s to call attention to the prevailing and needlessly poor quality of life at the workplace. In their usage it referred to the quality of the relationship between the worker and his working environment as a whole, and was intended to emphasize the human dimension so often forgotten among the technical and economic factors in job design. Treating workers as if they were elements or cogs in the production process is not only an affront to the dignity of human life, but is also a serious underestimation of the human capabilities needed to operate more advanced technologies. When tasks demand high levels of vigilence, technical problem-solving skills, self initiated behavior, and social and communication skills. it is imperative that our concepts of man be of requisite complexity. Our aim is not just to protect the worker's life and health but to give them an informal interest in their job and opportunity to express their views and exercise control over everything that affects their working life. Certainly, so far as his work is concerned, a man must feel better protected but he must also have a greater feeling of freedom and responsibility. Something parallel but wholly different if happening in Europe, industrial democracy. What has happened in Europe has been discrete, fixed, finalized, and legalized. Those developing centuries driving toward industrialization like R.O.K, shall have to bear in mind the human complexity in processing and designing the work and its environment. Increasing attention is needed to the contradiction between autocratic rule at the workplace and democratic rights in society.n society.

  • Purposes: Caregivers are placed in a poor working environment because there is no special legal basis or definition in the current medical system, and they have difficulty in supplying manpower due to frequent job change and retirement. Therefore, this study aimed to find out the effect on job consciousness, job stress, job satisfaction, and turnover intention of caregivers in nursing hospitals for the elderly. Methodology: In this study, a survey was conducted from May 2nd to 16th, 2022, targeting caregivers with more than 6 months of work experience working at 10 nursing hospitals in D City. Data were collected through convenience sampling, and a self-administered questionnaire method was used, in which subjects filled out a questionnaire. A total of 240 questionnaires were distributed, and 220 copies were considered for the final analysis after excluding non-response or inappropriate questionnaires for data use. Data analysis used t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple linear regression analysis, and the main results are as follows. Findings: Job stress and job satisfaction showed a significant correlation with the level of turnover intention, and were also found to be major determinants. On the other hand, among the occupational characteristics of the study subjects, employment type, job motivation, service period, number of patients, injury experience, and license status showed a significant difference from turnover intention. Conclusion: As a result of the above research, in order to prevent job turnover and retirement by improving job stress and job satisfaction of caregivers engaged in nursing hospitals, it is necessary not only to legalize caregivers, but also to secure an appropriate level of caregivers for nursing hospitals and improve specific treatment for caregivers. Ultimately, a policy alternative that can provide quality nursing service is required.

  • 본 연구는 간호사의 태움 개념분석연구로 개념의 속성을 확인하고 명확한 개념 정의를 내리고자 시도되었다. Walker and Avant의 개념분석 방법을 사용하였다. 간호사의 태움의 속성은 조직문화, 피해자인 미숙한 신규 간호사, 가해자인 선임 간호사, 가르침의 변질, 언어적, 신체적 폭력경험, 심리적, 신체적 증상으로 도출되었다. 간호사의 태움의 선행요인은 간호업무 과다, 높은 노동 강도, 직무 스트레스, 인력 부족, 열악한 근무 환경, 신규 간호사의 업무 능력이 기대에 미치지 못함, 조직의 위계질서, 힘의 불균형이었으며 결과는 신체적, 심리적 증상, 간호업무 효율 저하, 불신 증가, 이직의도 증가, 환자 간호의 질 하락으로 나타났다. 간호사의 태움의 선행요인을 해결하기 위해 활동 간호인력 확충을 위한 근로조건 개선, 사회적지지 프로그램 제공, 의사소통과 상호협력 관계를 지향하는 공동체 문화가 조성되어야 한다. 이후 간호사의 태움에 대한 더 많은 질적 연구와 태움의 속성이 잘 반영된 도구개발 연구, 태움 문화 개선을 위한 프로그램 개발 연구를 제언한다. 본 연구는 태움의 선행요인을 제시하여 해결방안을 제안함으로써 신규간호사 적응 프로그램을 위한 이론적 근거를 제공했다는 점에서 의의가 있다.
