  • This study first focuses on the quantitative evaluation of both compulsory and voluntary safety certification of industrial machines and devices. Based on the results of statistical analysis, effectiveness of those safety certifications were confirmed. In order to reduce both the frequency and the strength of industrial accidents associated with industrial machines and devices, major target of safety regulations needs to be shifted from users to manufacturers. Adjustment of industrial machines and devices which are subject to compulsory safety certification and implementation of risk assessment are further suggested. As for the voluntary certification, reestablishment of the concept of voluntary safety certification and balance between compulsory and voluntary certifications is discussed. Voluntary safety certification is further suggested as a mean to manage safety of industrial machines and devices which are not subject to any safety regulations.

  • This study surveyed the recognition and credibility of infant's organic cotton apparel and examined the current quality of children's organic cotton clothes available in the market. This study contributes to improve fabric certification programs and safety standards by understanding customer opinions and actual quality. A customer survey revealed that customers believe that organic cotton products should not include chemicals such as pesticides, fluorescent whitening agents and chemical colors; in addition, customers have high expectations for safety as well as worries about the products' validity. Children's underwear was the most purchased item category among organic cotton products. Current organic cotton certification programs are voluntary with multiple organizations that provide various certification standards. A total of 34.2% of children's organic cotton clothes sold at online and offline stores were not certified, and 10.5% had invalid certification information. This may substantially lower the credibility of organic cotton products and requires immediate change. Examination of organic cotton products showed that products do not meet customer expectations for quality and safety: 3 out of 8 products used accessories (buttons and wappens) that include harmful chemicals such as lead, phthalate and formaldehyde, 6 products used fluorescent whitening agents, and 4 products used other fabrics such as rayon, polyurethane and polyester. GOTS mark is the most recognized organic certification, but it still allows the usage of fluorescent whitening agents, which indicates a gap between customer opinions and actual certification standards. Managing national-level mandatory certification programs like food and setting quality standards that meets customer expectations are required to enhance the credibility of organic cotton products.

  • The purpose of this study is to prepare a systematic implementation of safety management for adult's foods through recommendations and guidelines for nutrition and hygiene standards for food quality certification system preferred by adults. To achieve this goal, the study studied the current status of adult preferred foods sold near the university, elicited the risks and problems of such foods, and selected nutritional and hygiene risk factors from those foods. To provide quality certification standards and guidelines for adult food preferences, this study looked at practical examples of relevant domestic and international policies and standards. The nutritional standards for food quality certification for sugars, fats, sodium, additive microorganisms and pathogenic bacteria, which are nutrients that can impair health when consumed in large quantities, and dietary standards limited to less than 100 kcal per serving were studied. One excessive amount of caffeine is reported to cause loss of calcium and potassium in the body, suggesting that if an adult is continuously exposed to high concentrations of caffeine, it could lead to imbalance in the resolution in the body and be flavored by growth and foot moon. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare an individual banner based on feasible food types, which is coordinated with the nutritional aspects that fit the purpose of presenting right amount, safe food through the quality certification system for adult's favorite foods and practical aspects that can induce companies' response and voluntary impacting efforts.

  • 실종아동의 발생 시 가장 중요한 것은 초기수색을 통해 조속히 실종된 아동을 찾는 것이다. 1981년 미국에서 발생한 아담 월시 실종사건을 계기로 미국에서는 코드아담법을 제정, 모든 연방건물에서 실종아동 발생시 코드아담경보를 발령토록 하고 있고, 월마트를 비롯하여 다중이용 민간시설에서는 자발적으로 여기에 동참하고 있다. 우리나라에서도 최근 이러한 코드아담법의 도입이 논의되고 있으나 아직 선행연구가 전무한 상황에서 본 연구는 한국형 코드아담법의 입법모델을 제시하였다. 동 모델에 따라 대규모 점포나 놀이시설 등을 포함한 대규모 다중이용에서 의무적으로 '실종아동등의 예방 및 조기발견계획'을 수립 시행하도록 하고, 이를 위반할 경우 행정질서벌로서 과태료를 부과하고 명단을 공표하는 방식의 제재수단을 마련하도록 하는 것과, 자율적 참여를 유도하기 위해 인증제를 통해 실종아동예방 안전시설에서 인증로고를 상업적으로 이용할 수 있도록 하는 것을 제안한다.
