Abstract

This study is an analysis of characteristics and the causes of serious accidents in chemical industry. The statistical analysis was focused on preventive facilities, equipment failures, accident materials and instabilities of workers and employment type. First, it showed that the highest number of the victims of accidents were involved in the industry of chemical materials and chemical products among the investigation of the manufactural industries. Also, particularly, they were investigated to be focused on the occurrence of the serious accidents in preventive facilities. Secondly, the most of the victims of serious accidents were found out not to be temporary or part-time worker but regular workers and most of the accidents occur in the form of big accidents involving more than 4 workers.

화학 관련 산업에서의 중대재해 발생 사고를 업종별로 분류하여 방호시설, 설비결함, 기인물 및 불안전 행동 그리고 고용형태 등에 대한 영향을 살펴보고자 하였다. 이에 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 첫째 화학 관련 업종 중에서 화학물 및 화학제품 제조업이 중대재해자 수가 가장 많은 것을 알 수 있었고, 그 중에서도 특정방호시설에 집중되고 있는 것을 파악하였다. 둘째 고용형태에 따른 중대재해는 주로 임시직 및 일용직이 아닌 상용직 경력자들에서 일어나는 것을 알 수 있었으며 피해 형태는 주로 대형사고로 인한 4명이상 사망자가 발생하는 피해가 발생하는 것으로 파악되었다.
