Change in labor time is affecting occupational safety and health. Recently reduction in labor time brought innovational operation method, investment in plant and equipment, and flexible labor time in some companies, thereby affecting working conditions for labourers. However, working conditions for some vulnerable social groups have deteriorated. As a result, they are becoming more exposed to risk factors such as injury and emotional stress. In this study we use 2014 KWCS data in order to find the social and demographic characteristics in Korean working conditions. To this end, we use exploratory data analysis approach to find the relationship between some of the important variables in the KWCS data. We also use Press-State-Response model to find which group of people are vulnerable to Press and State. We find that women, people over age 50 and business owners are more vulnerable to Press and State than men, people below age 50 and wage workers.

The facilities of domestic elderly people are getting higher in the facility due to the rapid increase of the elderly population. Elderly people ability to evacuate the facility such as cognition and walking ability is very low. Therefore, it is necessary to secure the safety of evacuation in case of fire, but the evacuation safety measures in case of domestic fire accidents are insufficient. This study is to identify the problems of the safety of evacuation through the fire case analysis and to propose the measures against it.

우리나라가 선진국 대열에 합류함에 따라 장애인에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 특히, 장애인들의 사회 활동이 더욱 활발해지면서 교통약자의 이동권 보장이 더욱 강력하게 요구되고 있다. 이에 각 지자체에서는 교통약자의 이동권을 보장하기 위해 다양한 노력을 해오고 있다. 본 연구에서는 각 지자체에서 현재 운행하고 있는 특별교통수단인, 교통약자를 위한 콜택시에 대한 전국 현황을 파악하고, 콜택시를 자동 배차해 주는 교통약자의 이동지원 시스템 구축 현황에 대해 고찰해 본다. 또한, 해당 시스템의 핵심 기능인 자동 배차의 문제점을 파악하고, 이를 개선할 수 있는 최선의 자동 배차 알고리즘을 설계하고 구현해 본다. 본 연구에서 제시한 알고리즘을 실제 특정 지자체의 상용 시스템에 적용하여 기존 문제점을 해결하고 정상적으로 동작함을 확인해 본다. 본 연구의 결과는 교통약자에게 보다 신속하고 정확한 자동 배차가 되고 교통약자의 교통수단 이동편의가 증진될 것으로 기대된다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate factors that influenced depression of the elderly vulnerable people living alone in the public home visiting health service center. Methods: The participants for this study were 491 Korean elderly men living in G city. Data were collected from February to July, 2011 using structured questionnaires. ${\chi}^2$-test, t-test, Pearson's correlation coefficient and multiple regression with the SPSS/WIN program were used to analyze the data. Results: The levels of ADL and IADL of the elderly living alone were higher, and the levels of social support and life satisfaction were lower than the normal elderly. Depression was positively related to ADL and IADL and negatively to social support and life satisfaction in the elderly living alone. In addition, age, fall experience, ADL, IADL and life satisfaction had influence on the depression. Conclusion: The elderly living alone are in a more serious health status, especially in depression than the normal elderly. It is necessary to develop depression controlling intervention programs in order to promote healthy lifestyles for the elderly vulnerable people living alone.

현대사회에서 노인, 장애인, 외국인, 어린이 등 재난취약계층의 수가 빠르게 증가하고 있다. 이러한 재난에 취약한 계층의 일반적인 특성은 경제적 어려움으로 인하여 주거형태가 재난에 취약하고, 재난에 노출되면 회복력이 더디다는 것이다. 본 연구는 재난취약계층에 대한 대상자 위험이슈분석을 통해 새롭게 도출되는 위험이슈를 파악하고, 정책개발의 기초자료를 제공하는 데 그 목적이 있다. 연구방법은 재난취약계층 중에서 어린이와 임산부의 사례를 중심으로 최근 10년간('10-19) 소셜미디어의 이슈 데이터를 중심으로 소셜네트워크 분석을 수행하였고, 연구결과 첫째, 이슈의 추이를 살펴보면 특정 사건의 발생과 연관성을 갖는다. 둘째, 위기관리의 유형, 대상, 관리방식에 대한 인식이 분석되었다. 셋째, 위험이슈의 해결방안이나 대상의 특성을 반영한 감정어가 분석되었고, 부정적인 감성을 유발하는 단어도 분석되었다. 따라서 본 기초데이터를 바탕으로 정부와 지자체는 국민의 정서분석과 대중의 인식을 토대로 급변하는 재난환경의 효율적인 위기관리체계를 구축하기를 바란다.

Everybody may be vulnerable to fires depending on the time, place, and circumstances. Fire statistics show that the occurrence of fire death depends not only on the severity of a fire itself, but also largely on the conditions of occupants such as physical functions, the environment around occupants, and the type of facility where are fire occurs. The review of fire safety from the viewpoint of vulnerable populations does not simply mean additional special attention and care only to high risk groups, but instead it means significant review of fire safety design and systems for all people from a more universal standpoint. Therefore, in order to examine the strategies of a fire death-reduction program, safety measures suitable for the relevant high-risk groups considering the type of vulnerable person, the type of fire, and the type of building in residential occupancies. Solutions will require strenuous multilateral effort and flexibility.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate achievements of a community health center for vulnerable population in urban areas and to find out its strength and weakness. Method: This evaluative study employed system theories and analytic techniques. Results: The purpose of improving vulnerable population's health-related self-care abilities adequately met the operation of programs. This center maintained close connection to a nursing college as a information resource. The subjects' satisfaction was high because team members who visited them were faithful and there were face-to-face contact, sufficient time set, closeness and resourcefulness. There were needs for regular meetings to discuss overall matters in organizing the program and to improve management skills. The mean score of health promotion lifestyle was 2.23 on a 4 point scale. This score indicates what in higher than vulnerable people in other communities. Conclusions: Community-based nursing centers for vulnerable population in urban areas should be developed as support organizations and community network.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to identify the relationships between family function and successful aging of vulnerable elderly using the circumplex model. Methods: The participants were the elderly (N=401) who were over 65 years old living in H city under the National Livelihood Security Act. Family Adaptability and Cohesion Evaluation Scale III and Successful Aging Instrument were used. Results: The family function perceived by the study subjects was average $43.20{\pm}16.62$ out of maximum 100 points. According to the analysis on family types suggested by circumplex model, there were 183 people for balance family (45.6%) and 218 people (54.4%) for extreme family. The total points on successful aging were $1.67{\pm}0.37$ out of 3 points. When the difference in points on the Successful Aging instrument were analyzed according to the scores on the Family Adaptability and Cohesion Scale those points of the balanced family were statistically significant (t=2.087, p=.038). Conclusion: In case of the balanced family type, the level of perceiving successful aging was relatively higher. For the improvement of family function, it is advised that the successful aging perception among vulnerable elderly can be uplifted through a program that enables effective communication with other family members.

The development of autonomous driving technology is expected to bring about a major change in the mobility rights of the transportation vulnerable. It is very important to identify user requirements in developing autonomous vehicles and service technologies for the transportation vulnerable. User requirements were derived for the wheelchair disabled and the walking disabled. Through focus interviews, a total of 58 requirements were derived for wheelchair-using disabled people and 53 requirements for walking disabled people. A Kano survey was conducted on 33 wheelchair disabled and 34 walking disabled. After that, the quality types of functional requirements in terms of autonomous vehicles and service environment development were analyzed using the Kano model. Priority analysis was conducted on the functions required by the wheelchair disabled and the walking disabled. The results of this study can be used as basic data to determine the priorities of user function requirements in the early stages of autonomous vehicle and service technology development.

본 연구는 농어촌 건강취약지역의 노인들이 경험하는 건강불평등 경험의 의미를 focus group으로 연구한 질적연구이다. 연구목적은 농어촌 건강취약지역의 노인건강불평등을 이해하고 건강증진을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다. 경상남도의 20개 시·군에서 2004년부터 2007년간 표준화 사망비가 지속적으로 높은 40개 취약지역으로 선정된 읍·면·동 중에서 15개 농어촌지역을 임의로 선정하여 각 지역별로 focus group 참여자를 구성하고 현상학적 분석방법에 근거하여 분석하였다. 연구결과로 농어촌 건강취역 지역 노인들이 경험하는 건강불평등은 생태학적 환경오염, 지역사회 서비스부족과 위해환경, 낮은 경제상태, 건강행태차원에서 건강관리 부족의 4개 범주로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 건강취약지역의 노인건강 증진을 위한 몇 가지 제언을 제시하였다.
