Abstract

Users of passenger ships and cruise ships are rapidly increasing year by year, and the needs of the floating architecture are newly come out. But the studies about the passengers' safety and the countermeasures against incidents on board the ships are rare, although the ships' incidents are occurred averagely 15 cases per year during last 10 years. For the purposes of the analysis of the safety consciousness and gathering the some of input data for evacuation simulation for Korean passengers on board ships, this study performed surveys targeting ordinary 394 passengers who are not specially trained and/or accustomed with onboard living conditions. The results are the followings. The reliability on ships' safety is surveyed as 32.3%. Only 14.6% of respondents are aware that there were safety education on board ship during sailing. And 42.2% and 40.9% of respondents answered that they saw the map of emergency routes and knew where the life boats are, respectively. And 73.3% select crews' direct or in-direct(like announcement by indoor broadcasting system) guidances as the most effective evacuation method.

국내외 여객선, 크루즈선의 이용자는 매년 빠르게 증가하고, 플로팅건축물 등 새로운 해상주거활동공간의 필요성이 커지고 있다. 그러나 지난 10년간 매년 평균 15건 이상의 선박사고가 발생하고 있음에도 불구하고 아직까지도 여객선 승선객의 재난대응능력과 안전의식에 관한 연구는 매우 미흡한 실정이다. 본 논문은 국내 여객선 이용자의 안전의식을 분석하고 문제점을 파악하며, 또한 국내 기준에 맞는 피난 시뮬레이션의 기초자료가 될 데이터를 확보하기 위해 승선생활에 익숙하지 않은 일반 승선객 394명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구결과를 정리하면 다음과 같다. 여객선의 안전성에 대한 일반 승선객의 신뢰도는 32.3%로 낮게 나타났다. 선내에서 진행된 안전교육에 대해서는 불과 14.6%만이 인지하였다고 응답하였고, 배의 피난경로 확인(42.2%)과 구명정 위치 확인(40.9%) 비율도 높지 않게 나타났다. 안전한 피난 기준은 73.3%가 선내 구조에 익숙한 승조원의 지시에 따라 피난활동을 하겠다고 응답하였다.
