This study was planned to investigate employer's attitude about health management of workers in coal mine industry. The sample size was 38.3% (178 coal mine industries) of total 463 coal mine industries. The mailing survey was used to collecting data of coal mine industry and manager of coal mine industry. Distribution of attitude about health management of workers in coal mine industry, specifically necessity and availability of some items of health management and some apparatus of working environment, was skewed to positive attitude. While recognition of susceptability of coal workers' pneumoconiosis was low, that of seriousness of incidence of coal workers' pneumoconiosis was high.

The purpose of this study is to investigate attitude factor related to hearing conservation and to find attitude affecting the preventive behavior for hearing conservation. The research method used in this study was self-administered questionnaire. Samples of the study were composed of 353 workers exposed noise selected randomly in 10 ship-building manufacturing companies. Authors extracted following 9 factors related hearing conservation from 26 attitude propositions prepared from previous study results and health belief model; (1) general perceived susceptibility, (2) relative perceived susceptibility compared with colleagues, (3) concern to the personal protective devices, (4) perceived severity and concern to the hearing capacity, (5) concern to the hearing and noise assessment, (6) concern to the control noise and hearing conservation, (7) group pressure and reason of wearing protective devices, (8) apathy of hearing loss from noise, (9) knowledge about hearing conservation. Attitude factors affecting the preventive health behavior were general perceived susceptibility, concern to the noise control and hearing conservation, and concern to the personal protective devices in the case of wearing personal protective devices. But in the case of avoiding noise exposure as preventive health behavior, perceived severity and concern to the hearing capacity was a significant attitude factor with knowledge about hearing conservation.

인터넷 사용과 직무태도의 변화

이경용(Kyung Yong Rhee),김왕배(Wang-Bae Kim) 한국사회학회 2003 韓國社會學 Vol.37 No.1

이 글은 정보기술의 총아라고 일컬어지고 있는 인터넷의 사용이 어떻게 직무태도에영향을 주고 있는가를 직무만족, 직무생산성과 직무감시 인식의 측면에서 분석한 것이다. 조사 분석의 결과에 의하면, 인터넷 사용에 따라 직무의 만족과 생산성에 대한 인식은 상대적으로 높아지고 있으며, 직무감시에 대한 인식은 낮은 것으로 나타나고 있다. 직무만족과 생산성 인식에서 비교적 긍정적 응답이 높은 것은 인터넷과 같은 정보기술의 도입이 직무수행에 긍정적으로 기여하고 있음을 반영한다고 볼 수 있다. 정보기술과 감시체계는 최근 사생활보호와 인권이라는 측면에서 쟁점으로 부각되고 있으나 조사의 결과에 의하면 직장에서의 인터넷 사용에 대한 감시 인식은 낮은 것으로 나타나고 있다. 물론 본 연구의 결과는 응답자의 주관적 평가에 의한 것이므로 객관적 상황에 대한 연구가 병행될 필요가 있다. 사회인구학적/경제적 변인과 사회적 태도 등은 거의 직무태도에 영향을 미치고 있지 않고 있으며 인터넷 사용의 특성, 그 중에서도 인터넷 사용역량과 사적 이용 등이 무만족이나 감시인식 등에 영향을 미치고 있다. 즉, 인터넷 사용역량이 큰 이용자들이 직무만족을 많이 느끼고 있고, 업무중 사적으로 인터넷을 이용하는 사람들이 상식적인 예측대로 감시에 대한 인식이 높다는 것이다. 정보기술이 직무태도에 주는 영향에 대해서는 상반된 견해들이 존재하고 있지만, 이에 대한 구체적인 경험적 조사연구가 부족하다는 점, 특히 인터넷 사용과 관련되어 경험적 조사에 기초한 논의들이 미흡하다는 점을 감안해본다면, 전국차원에서 조사되고 분석된 본 연구의 결과들은 다분히 발견적임에도 불구하고 더 많은 실증적 조사와 분석을 위한 디딤돌로서의 위상을 갖는 다고 할 것이다. The internet, nicknamed as ‘the sea of information’, has remarkably spread not only over everyday life but also over workplace during the recent years. This paper examines in what degree the internet use influences the work attitude, in terms of job satisfaction, productivity and surveillance. The findings indicate that both the job satisfaction and the perception of productivity have increased in parallel with the use of internet. This result suggests that the information technology should contribute positively to job performance. Monitoring of internet use has been spotlighted in light of the protection of privacy and the laborers' human rights, the same as CCTV, IC, the telephone monitoring, introduction of GPS etc. have the effect of surveillance on the privacy. Although the degree of perception on internet surveillance is not high in this survey, we are able to anticipate that the perception will increase because of the internet surveillance's being a controversial agenda more and more. The regression analysis shows that neither the socio-demographic/economic factors nor the general social attitude have much of influence on work attitude. However, the results tell us that the more “internet use capacity” increases the higher the degree of job satisfaction goes, and that the more the workers use the internet for private affairs, the higher the degree of surveillance perception becomes. These findings are likely to be heuristic ones. The research on objective realities is required since the data in this study depended on the respondents' subjective psychological perception.

이경용 ( Kyung Yong Rhee ),송세욱 ( Se Wook Song ),김영선 ( Young Sun Kim ) 한국산업보건학회 2014 한국산업보건학회지 Vol.24 No.4

Objectives: The major objective of this paper is compare the exposure work hours and experieence of ill health symptoms among under and over employment and matched group. Workers with over employment have more exposed to hazards than that with under employment because that workers with over employment work more than those with ender employment. Methods: This study as heuristics one used the third Korean Working Conditions Survey done by Occupational Safety and Health Research Institute in 2011. The sample size is 50,023 economic active persons. Over and under employment were measured by matching method of preferred and actual work hours. The exposed work hours to hazards were measured according to 13 hazardous factors and the experience of ill health symptoms were scaled by the number of experienced 14 ill health symptoms. To compare the exposure and the symptoms experience were compared by mean difference test with F test. Results: The proportion of over employment in male employees is 32.1% and that in female employees is 29.3% and under employment rate is 11.2% in mae and 13.9% in female employees. There is significant difference of the rate of over and under emplyment among age groups, industrial sectors, occupational groups and the state of employment. The difference of the exposed work hours to hazards among under, over and matched group were statistically significant in all hazards by gender. The exposed work hours to hazards in over employment were more than those in under employment. The number of experienced symptoms in over employment is statistically significantly more than that in under employment. Conclusions: Workers with over employment may be vulnerable group in the criteria of hazard exposure and health status. The results have some implications and limitations because that this study is heuristic one. The mismatch of preferred and actual working hours may be unfavorable work condition that has impact on safety and health of workers. The impact mechanism may be investigated as future study, Because that this study used cross sectional survey data, some causal relationships cannot be evaluated.

제조업 사업장의 안전보건활동이 안전보건수준 인식에 미치는 영향

이경용(Kyung Yong Rhee) 한국사회정책학회 2011 한국사회정책 Vol.18 No.4

근로자의 건강을 보호하기 위해서는 안전보건수준을 향상시키는 것이 필요하다. 사업장의 안전보건수준은 다양한 안전보건활동을 통해서 향상될 수 있다. 사업장의 안전보건활동은 법적 규제에 대응하는 활동과 경제적 합리성에 근거해서 이루어지는 활동으로 구분될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 제조업체의 다양한 안전보건활동 중에서 사업장의 안전보건수준에 대한 인식에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 활동이 무엇이며, 위험도 수준에 영향을 미치는 활동이 무엇인지를 알아보았다. 본 연구에 활용된 자료는 2009년 산업안전보건연구원이 실시한 산업안전보건동향조사 자료이며, 이 중에서 제조업체 응답 자료만 선별하여 분석에 활용하였다. 사업장의 다양한 안전보건활동을 범주화하기 위하여 요인분석을 한 결과 사업주의 일반적인 안전보건경영활동, 근로자 건강관리 활동, 화학물질 관리, 보호구 및 유해위험기계기구관리, 및 정보전달과 의사소통 등의 5개 하위 활동으로 분류되었다. 5개로 분류된 안전보건활동은 모두 사업장의 안전보건활동 수준에 대한 인식에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미쳤으며, 이 중에서 사업주의 일반적인 안전보건경영활동의 영향이 가장 큰 것으로 나타났다. 반면 위험도에 대한 인식은 5%의 유의수준에서 보호구 및 유해위험기계기구 관리만 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 결국안전보건수준에 대한 인식과 위험도에 대한 인식이 서로 다른 차원으로 구성되고 있음을 보여주는 것이다. 본 연구는 단면조사 자료를 이용하였기 때문에 인과관계에 대한 해석에 한계를 지니고 있으며, 안전보건활동의 다양성을 충분히 포괄하지 못한 제한점이 있다. In order to protect workers` health it is needed to improve the level of occupational safety and health. The level of workplace safety and health can be improved through a variety of activities of occupational safety and health. Workplace safety and health activities can be divided into two categories such as response to the legal and regulatory activities and economically rational activities for profit making. Author investigated which activities have the greatest effect on awareness of workplace safety and health levels and workplace risk level. Materials utilized for this study was data from 2009 Occupational Safety and Health Trend Survey conducted by Occupational Safety and Health Research Institute. Using factor analysis the various activities of workplace safety and health were classified into five sub categories such as employer`s general safety and health management activities, employee health-related activities, management of chemicals, machinery protection and personal protective equipment management, and information delivery and communication. All of the activities of safety and health has had a significant impact on perceived level of workplace safety and health. Among five categories of activities, the employer`s general health and safety management showed the largest impact. Whereas awareness of risk was influenced by only activity of personal protection equipment and hazard machinery at 5% significance level. After all perceived level of health and safety and risk awareness are recognized differently by safety and health managers in workplace. This study has some limitation. Cross sectional survey data cannot be interpreted as causal relationship and surveyed activities about workplace safety and health cannot cover all kinds of activities.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the present state of worker's recognition and attitude about hazard materials and occupational disease in his workplace. In general worker's view of hazard materials and occupational disease that sis recognition and attitude is related to worker's health behavior for preventing occupational disease and improving his health status. The study subject is composed of workers in the asbestos related industry for example brake lining manufacturing industry, asbestos fiber manufacturing industry, and asbestos slate manufacturing industry. The result of the study are follows : 1. The most of workers in the asbestos related industry have taken health education and safety education, and the more than half of workers recognized the usefulness of preventive device, and ventilatory device in workplace. 2. About 70% of workers have always taken the preventive device. 3. About 80% of workers have recognized occupational disease in the asbestos related industry, and about 64% of workers have recognized that hls workplace have harmful effect on his health. 4. Recognition about the usefulness of ventilatory device in work place has not related with any variables. But recognition about the usefulness of repiratory protector has related with recognition of hazard materials in his workplace, for example asbestos. 5. Attitude about severity and susceptability of occupational disease in the asbestos related industry have related with knowledge about hazard materials and occupational disease.

The purpose of this study is to analyze occupational history of coal miners with pneumoconiosis. In this study, occupational characteristics of 49 coal miners with pneumoconiosis were compared with those of 45 coal miners without pneumoconiosis but in similar age category($43{\sim}52$ years of age) based on interview survey. Various indices on occupational characteristics were developed for the following areas: duration of employment, perception of working condition, working density, dust concentration, temperature, humidity, and experience of respirator wearings. Perception of working condition were measured in 5 points scales but experiences of respirator wearing was measured in 3 points scale. Each index was multiplied by duration of employment. From the analysis, only the experience of respirator wearing showed statistically significant difference between the two groups. Therefore, respirator wearing seemed to be effective in reducing occurrence of pneumoconiosis.

감정노동자의 직무환경과 스트레스

김왕배(Wangbae Kim),이경용(Kyung Yong Rhee),이가람(Garam Lee) 한국사회학회 2012 韓國社會學 Vol.46 No.2

인간 본연의 속성인 ‘감정’을 노동과정 속에서 교환가치로 추상화하여 상품으로 판매하는 특별한 유형의 서비스 노동을 감정노동이라 한다. 서비스 영역이 확대되면서 감정노동의 영역 역시 급속히 확대되고 있다. 특정한 감정규칙을 따라 자신의 내적 감정을 조절, 관리하는 작업을 수행해야 하는 감정노동은 새로운 노동통제 방식이자 이윤추구의 마케팅 전략이기도 하다. 감정노동자들은 기업이나 조직이 만든 감정 규칙의 매뉴얼에 따라 자신의 내재적인 감정을 조절 혹은 변화시켜야 한다. 그 결과 많은 감정노동자들이 스트레스는 물론 우울증과 불안, 그리고 소진(burnout) 현상을 나타내고 있다는 실증적 연구결과들이 제시되고 있다. 본 논문은 〈근로환경조사〉 자료를 토대로, 감정노동과 직무환경 그리고 스트레스의 관계를 분석하였다. 감정노동에 대한 기존 연구들이 감정노동과 스트레스 혹은 소진의 직접적 연관성에 초점을 둔 반면 본 연구는 통계적 분석을 통해 감정노동자의 직무환경 변인의 영향을 알아보았다. 또한 공공서비스 부문의 감정 노동자를 분석에 포함시켜 민간서비스 부문과 비교하였다. 연구결과 공공서비스 부문의 감정노동자들이 민간서비스 부문보다도 더 많은 스트레스를 받고 있고, 비정규직 감정노동자들이 정규직에 비해 더 많은 스트레스를 받는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 공공조직의 엄격한 규제나 고용불안정이 감정노동의 부담을 더 높인 것으로 해석할 수 있다. 또한 시간압박감이 크고, 휴식의 자율성이 적을수록 감정노동자의 스트레스도 큰 것으로 분석되었다. 본 연구의 결과들은 ‘발견적’인 것으로, 감정노동의 영역이 더욱 확장되고 있는 추세 속에서 다양한 측면의 실증적 연구와 정책적 방안들을 연구하기 위한 기초작업으로서의 의의가 있다고 할 수 있다. Based on 2006 Korean Working Conditions Survey, this paper has attempted to show the relations of work environment and stress of emotional laborers. As the service sector has expanded, the fields of emotional labor has widened from female-based low service jobs to male professional jobs. Emotional Labor transforms the emotion, a basic human nature, into a commodity in its labor process to sell them at the market. A series of empirical studies have shown that it led many workers who perform the emotional labor to get depression, anxiety, and burnout, as well as general stress. While many studies have focused on the direct connection between emotional labor and stress (or burnout), this study has been designed for a statistical analysis on influence of various socioeconomic variables and work settings. It includes the emotional workers of public service sectors in the analysis for comparison with those of private service sector. Result has shown that the emotional workers who are in public service sector are more vulnerable to the stress than those in private sector. Emotional workers with irregular employment status showed higher stress level than those with regular status. It can be interpreted that strict control of public organizations or general job insecurity are added to the burden of emotional labor. Also higher time pressure and less autonomy are proven to increase the stress of emotional workers. In the era of expanding service industry and emotional labor, this exploratory study is significant as a pilot study for further empirical research.

기술사용이 근로환경과 근로자 건강에 미치는 영향력에 대한 연구

김영선 ( Young Sun Kim ),이경용 ( Kyung Yong Rhee ),진주현 ( Ju Hyeon Jin ),김기식 ( Ki Sik Kim ) 한국안전학회(구 한국산업안전학회) 2014 한국안전학회지 Vol.29 No.5

on whether technology is used by such workers. The data used for the study is the third work environment survey. Out of50,032 respondents, a total of 29,711 paid workers were used as analysis subjects. Although it was anticipated that the use of technology was a factor that hindered job autonomy and teamwork autonomy. However, the analysis results showed low levels of job autonomy and teamwork autonomy in the group that did not use technology. The study assumes a regression analysis model about work environment and work organizational practices of workspaces that have an impact on musculoskeletal complaints, stress symptoms and level of work satisfaction by controlling the social demographic variable that represents the level of individual sensitivity. As a result of the study, ergonomic risk had a significant effect on both groups that did or did not use technology with respect to stress symptoms, musculoskeletal complaints and level of work satisfaction. In particular, as workspace practices and work environment had an effect on the development of musculoskeletal complaints in the group that used machines, there is a need to improve such situation. The autonomous team work or level of job autonomy within the group that used technology may act as a risk factor to the health and welfare of workers. However, because it may also act as a buffer factor, there is a need for a change to reduces tress symptoms and increase the level of work satisfaction by improving autonomous team work and the level of job autonomy.
