This study examined the effect of having a certificate on the return to work after an industrial accident.
The data were used from the 1st(2013) to the 5th(2017) of Panel Study of Workers’ Compensation Insurance. The final sample number was 1,458 except for self-employed, and data loss.
The results of this study are summarized as follows.
First, the 30s and 40s, the males, and the lower the disability grade, the higher the return to work after industrial accidents.
Second, as a result of analysis, males were in their 30s and 40s with a strong economic activity, males were higher than females, and higher education levels held higher qualifications.
The percentage of certificate holders and return to work was slightly higher for regular workers than for daily workers. According to the type of industry, the percentage of certificate holdings was highest in the service industry, and the rate of return to work was highest in the manufacturing and service industries.
Third, the return to work of certificate holders was significantly higher than that of non-holders. In particular, it was found that the holding of certificates had a significant effect on returning to work in the female class compared to the male and the daily working class compared to the regular workers.
This shows that the qualifications play a more important role in returning to work and employment, which is relatively weak compared to men's daily employment, and women's return to work. These findings suggest that greater policy efforts are needed to support the acquisition of certification in order to return to the workplace for those who are vulnerable to employment.
