우리나라에서 서민취약계층의 보호는 현재 "국민기초생활보장법"이 주로 담당한다. 하지만 현행법은 소득과 재산, 부양의무자 등을 기준으로 절대적 빈곤층의 보호만을 고려하고 있기 때문에 서민취약계층의 보호에 미흡하다. 구체적으로 현행법은 상대적 빈곤선을 예정하고 있지 않아 서민취약계층의 경제적 수요를 보호하는데 한계가 있다. 또한 급여의 지급이 통합되어 지급되기 때문에 서민취약계층의 개별적인 사회적 수요를 보호하는 데 미흡하다. 그리고 부양의무자 기준이 너무 엄격하여 법적 보호를 받지 못하는 사각지대를 형성하는 주요원인이 되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 서민취약계층의 보호를 위한 발전방안으로 첫째, "국민기초생활보장법"상 최저생계비를 결정함에 있어 상대적 빈곤선의 개념을 도입할 것을 제안하였다. 둘째, 통합급여와 개별급여의 혼합방식을 채택하여, 서민취약계층의 사회적 수요에 유연하게 대처할 것을 제안하였다. 셋째, 부양의무자 기준이 실제 부양하고 있는지의 여부에 따라 판단되어야 할 것을 제안하였다.

우리나라는 경제 사회적 구조 변화로 인해 재난에 취약한 계층이 증가하고 있다. 특히, 고령화, 양극화, 국제화 추세가 심화됨에 따라 노인, 장애인, 기초생활수급자, 외국인, 다문화 가정 등 사회적 취약계층으로 불리는 이들이 재난에도 취약한데 흔히, '재난약자'라고 불린다. 재난약자들은 재난 발생시에 일반인과 달리 재난정보 획득에 어려움을 겪는 등, 자력으로 신속한 대응이 어렵기 때문에 특별한 관심과 관련된 정책이 필요하다. 물론, 최근에 재난약자에 대한 연구가 꾸준히 증가하고 있지만 외국인에 대한 논의는 상대적으로 부족하고, 이는 그들에 대한 재난에 대한 이해나 대처방법에 대한 실태를 정확하게 파악하지 못하게 되어 한국인의 시각과 관점에서 관련 정책을 마련하게 되고, 결국 국내 체류 외국인들은 관련 정보를 얻는데 어려움을 겪을 수 밖에 없는 악순환이 반복되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 국내에 거주하고 있는 외국인 근로자를 대상으로 재난정보에 대한 인식과 획득경로 등에 대한 심층인터뷰를 실시하였다. 인터뷰를 통해 도출된 결과를 바탕으로 국내 체류 외국인 근로자들이 빈번하게 접하는 정보매체를 이해하고, 적극적으로 활용하는 방안 등 실질적인 정보제공을 위한 함의를 도출하였다.

최근 고령 사회에서는 지역사회중심의료로의 전환에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 이에 일반 노인과 취약계층 노인 각각에 대해 기능중심의 건강상태를 파악하고, 이를 기반으로 의료서비스 이용 경험 및 요구 인식에 대해 살펴보는 것은 필요하다. 본 연구는 2016년 11월부터 12월까지 서울시 일개지역에 거주하는 65세 이상 노인을 방문하여 구조화된 설문을 통해 노인의 건강기능 상태와 의료서비스 이용 행태를 파악하였다. 취약계층 노인은 일반 노인보다 인지기능, 영양, 통증, 낙상 등에서 기능적 건강상태 저하를 더 많이 경험하는 것으로 나타났다. 인지기능, 영양과 같은 기능적 건강문제를 경험한 일반 노인은 취약계층보다 유의하게 의료서비스를 이용하는 것으로 나타났다. 한편 취약계층 노인은 통증 건강문제 영역에 있어서는 일반 노인보다 의료서비스 이용의 필요성을 더 유의하게 인식하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 지역사회 노인을 대상으로 공공 서비스 확대의 방향과 범위를 설정함에 있어, 일반 노인과 취약계층 노인 간에는 차별화된 정책이 설정되어야 함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 취약계층의 의료접근성 향상을 위해서는 경제적 장벽으로 인해 필요한 의료이용의 장애가 초래되지 않도록 공공의료기관의 적극적인 지원이 이루어져야 하겠다.

This study has purpose on deducting problems of evacuation plan for vulnerable populations in disaster and suggesting improvement plan through analysis of disaster weakness in domestic rural region aiming at vulnerable populations in disaster like old people containing most of domestic rural population, sometimes being in blind spot of safety when landslide or disaster occur. As a result, we could know that rural regions have high proportion of vulnerable populations in disaster like old people, also being so weak to landslide and slope collapse. So we suggested development of manual describing prevention of disaster and evacuation for vulnerable populations in disaster like old people and disaster evacuation organization for house and minimizing solution for damage of human life through improvement of steep slope evaluation criteria.

Recently, many patients in a hospital are threatened life by fire disaster. Because many patients like vulnerable people have more evacuation problem than ordinary person. So a patient who can escape by oneself with walking assistance device like crutches or wheelchair and another patient who can't escape by oneself are should be supported safety technologies and service. Earlier research of 'hospital evacuation' led by actual experiments or computer evacuation simulation. Actual experiment is effective to gain credibility of result but it is difficult for patients to experiment repeatedly and it requires consideration for spatial problem and economic problems. Although computer evacuation simulation have been used to solve these problems, almost have concluded only results based on velocity without evacuation device. In this study, evacuation results with support device application or not are analysed used by computer evacuation simulation based on MAS(Multi Agent System). As a result, it is drawn through proof of efficiency of evacuation device in the vertical space like stairs that can improve the evacuation plan for vulnerable people in the hospital.

Disadvantaged from disaster response training and disaster safety education who people are vulnerable to disasters when faced with disasters. The vulnerability of these disaster response will be linked to the desire for disaster information. Therefore, using smartphone to provide timely disaster information will be an effective disaster response service that enables disaster vulnerable people to avoid disaster efficiently. In particular, the importance of using smartphone as a part of the body will become more and more important in everyday situations when information is acquired through smartphone. In this study, Through a survey of traditional market traders, I can find out that the desire of elderly women, who are weak in disaster, to receive disaster information through smartphone text service is relatively strong. Based on the results of this study, I expect that the opportunity to improve disaster response capability through smartphone text service will be provided to elderly women who are weak in disaster.

This study is aiming to compare stair ascent transportation speed and physical burden of evacuation supporters according to the types of stair ascent transportation for vulnerable people experimentally. In this study, we measured heart rate of the supporters to indicate physical burden during the transportation. The subjects of this experiment were male students, age of 20-26. Experimental conditions were the ways of stair transportation and the weight of vulnerable people. The types of stair transportation were giving a piggyback ride and carrying a wheelchair. Each experimental trial was video-recorded for measurement of ascent speed and observing supporters movement. As a result of the experiment, as for the ascent transportation speed by piggyback ride from the first floor to the fourth floor, the average speed of the light case is 31 seconds and for the heavy case is 43 seconds. When it comes to the average speed of wheelchair transportation's average speed the light case is 1 minute and 11 seconds and the heavy case is 1 minute and 49 seconds. Therefore, it was indicated that when the weight of a vulnerable people is lighter, the transportation speed is faster. The heart rates of evacuation supporters are different depending on transportation methods or individual's condition but as repetitive transportation increases, they tend to reach the maximum heart rates.
