Abstract

This study compared, analyzed, and verified the accident rate and accident fatality rate (per 10,000 workers) of workplaces that perform safety management on behalf of a safety management institutions designated and registered in accordance with the OSHAct and workplaces that perform safety management. According to the research results, the significance was confirmed that the group with a low accident rate was the workplaces that self-appointed safety managers, workplaces with self-appointed safety managers in size with less than 300 employees, and workplaces in the industrial accident insurance industry in the manufacturing and transportation, warehouse, and telecommunications industries. The groups with a low accidental death rate were workplaces with less than 300 employees, workplaces where safety management was performed on behalf of safety management institutions, and workplaces with selfappointment for other medical businesses. In this study, it was confirmed that the accident rate in the safety management agency's workplaces was higher than that of its own appointed workplaces, and that there were some differences in the accident fatality rate depending on the size and industry. Therefore, since the current safety management agency system cannot ensure the effect of preventing accidental deaths, there is a need for comprehensive improvement of the agency system and improvement of the system to strengthen expertise in preventing industrial accidents.

본 연구는 산업안전보건법에 따라 지정·등록하는 안전관리전문기관에서 안전관리를 대행하는 사업장과 안전관리를 자체 수행하는 사업장의 사고재해율과 사고사망만인율을 비교 분석·검증하였다. 연구결과에 따르면 사고재해율이 낮은 집단은 안전관리자를 자체 선임한 사업장, 규모는 근로자 300인 미만 자체 선임 사업장, 산재보험 업종은 제조업과 운수·창고·통신업의 자체선임 사업장으로 유의성을 확인하였다. 사고사망만인율이 낮은 집단은 근로자 300인 미만 안전 관리전문기관의 대행 사업장과 기타의사업의 자체 선임 사업장으로 나타났다. 그 외 집단의 분석에서는 사고재해율과 사고사망만인율의 유의성을 확인할 수 없었다. 본 연구에서 안전관리전문기관의 대행 사업장에서 사고재해율이 자체 선임사업장 보다 높고, 사고사망만인율은 규모와 업종에 따라 일부 차이가 있는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서, 현재의 안전관리의 대행제도로는 사고사망 등 산재예방 효과를 담보할 수 없으므로 대행제도의 개편과 안전관리자를 대상으로 산업재해 및 사고사망 예방 전문성 강화를 위한 제도의 개선이 필요하다.
