Despite the fact that the construction industry demands a good quality of skilled labors, most of the labors have been nurtured through apprenticeship, without a systematic education. Despite Institutions has been conducted government-funded education and training programs, the number of new workers released through the educational institutions is not up to the demand of the construction sites, and only few construction workers take government-funded education program. This study analyzed the current status and problems of government-funded education and training, to derive problems and illustrates key improvements in the education system. The improvement measures were presented to improve the cost-side difficulties analyzed by major problems and improvements. As a result, this study aids to activate government-funded education and training.

사업의 지속적인 성장을 위해서, 생상성의 향상은 필수적인 요소이다. 건설업은 노동집약적인 산업이고 그래서 건설기능인력은 생산성에 영향을 미치는 가장 중요한 요인이다. 그러나 매해 건설기능인력은 감소하고 있는 추세이다. 따라서 이러한 문제는 반드시 교육체계와 직급체계의 제안을 통해 관리되어져야 한다. 이 연구의 목적은 기존의 문헌고찰을 통하여 현재의 교육체계와 직급체계의 연관된 문제를 찾아내고 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 교육체계와 직급체계를 제안하는데 목적이 있다. 또 이러한 교육체계와 직급체계의 타당성 검증을 위하여 건설 기능 인력의 설문조사와 건설 실무자의 면담, 조사를 통하여 타당성을 도출해낸다. 좀 더 세부적인 사항이나 결론은 아래의 글에서 알아보기로 한다.

Poor working conditions in the construction industry have made young people reluctant to enter it, resulting in supply/demand unbalance of construction skilled worker. Currently, most construction workers in Korea acquire skills through apprenticeships. Against this background, this study aimed to identify problems in apprenticeship-based methods of technical education, and to suggest measures that could improve these methods. As a measure to improve current apprenticeship-based methods of technical education, technical education needs to be regularly provided on construction sites, and each construction company needs to issue a certificate to workers confirming their completion of technical education. It is also necessary to establish a system in which this certificate is recognized as education experience. In addition, it is recommended to form partnerships with construction technology education institutes supported by the government in order to provide construction workers with opportunities to receive new technologies and construction methods free of charge, and it is urgently necessary to establish and implement a policy to adequately support their cost of living during this period.

The construction industry is heavily dependent on labor force as automation to building constructions is difficult due to its characteristics such on-site production, custom manufacturing production. Thus, while securing and fostering high-quality functional manpower for stable construction work are significant, the construction workforce has been persistently lacking compared to demand. Young workers are reluctant to enter the construction industry due to high labor intensity, unstable employment structure, and uncertainty for the future. The employment rate for new jobs in the construction industry is half as high as in others. Currently, the departments related to construction are organized in specialized high school to conduct training for young workers. The graduates have a low ratio of employment rate to the construction industry and functional capacities fallen short of expectations. In this study, the education and training conditions of specialized high schools were analyzed to derive problems and key improvements of the education system were drawn. As an improvement for the analysis results, it provides solutions such as giving advantages of previous education experience, expand industry-academic cooperation with businesses, and expand links with external educational institutions.

The construction industry is a labor-oriented and quality, cost, and schedule performance is effected by technicians. However, the construction industry have faced a labor shortage problem. Therefore, technician graying and no new workers inflow cause labor shortage and decline of worker's skill level. The utilization of foreign technicians instead of domestic technicians has been increased in the construction industry. This paper performed questionnaire survey for 43 managers on 14 project fields to determine the current status and problems of construction technicians and to propose a improvement plan. As a result, most foreign technicians are carpenters and iron workers, but the skill levels are generally lower than domestics. The major problems for foreign technicians are communication and non-skilled. Then, labor productivity and accident rates of foreign technicians are higher than domestics. This paper proposes that skill training programs, language lessons, and multi-cultural programs are effective to improve foreign workers' problems.

North Korea's demand for infrastructure construction and maintenance is growing rapidly. On the other hand, the number of skilled workers is insufficient. Therefore, through a survey of North Korean defectors, this study analyzed the status of construction technology and the difficulties of construction workers. In addition, an attempt was made to derive an appropriate education and training program process and operation plan. As a result of the survey, the reason for the low technical level of construction workers was the lack of skills, lack of motivation to work, and the lack of training and management systems. The appropriate education and training period was 56% of the total response within one year and 36% within six months. Based on the results of this survey, the period of education and training for the rapid training of construction technical personnel in North Korea was adopted as one year. Moreover, compared to the NCS standard in South Korea, appropriate training hours were suggested, excluding training courses, such as planning and design, construction management that require specialized knowledge. Finally, the curriculum corresponding to the education and training courses and the standards for facility names and required areas for facility operation were suggested.

최근 건설현장 안전관리에 대한 사회적 관심의 증가와 현장 사용 기계, 기구 등의 작업시설 기계화, 안전장치, 시설 등의 발전에도 불구하고, 건설현장의 재해율은 크게 변화하지 않고 있다. 이를 위해 건설현장에서 발생하는 재해의 형태 및 원인, 법정안전보건교육의 내용과 재해예방 효과를 분석하기 위해 H건설 현장의 관리감독자와 근로자 대상으로 건설안전교육에 대한 설문조사를 실시, 분석하였다. 주요 개선방안으로 근로자에게 기능적, 지식적 안전교육 내용이 인지될 수 있도록 현장 규모에 맞는 실질적 체험교육, 영상교육 및 VR(가상현실)등의 입체적 사례교육이 필요하고 지속적 연구와 교육자료 제작 필요 등이 제시되었다.

The purpose of this study solves both duality of construction and the economic problem of the daily laborer with activation of a construction skill human resource institute training. For the fixation of actuality institute training, the support and intervention of the public are necessary. Especially, to win young people over to construction job-site, we should analyze what they want and arrange and do information work institutionalized conditions that can satisfy their demand. Also institute training program must be reorganized to make them be acknowledged as a expert and social conditions is arranged so that they work self-conceit.

This study was conducted to pave the way for the development and operation of education and training programs to nurture skilled North Korean construction workers. Such programs would help to meet the expanded demand for setting up infrastructure, which is the backbone of the two Koreas' economic cooperation and mutual development. To achieve this initiative, the targets and scopes of education and training were determined by classifying business types for education and training purposes by construction sector. Furthermore, each education and training course and their allocated time frames were analyzed. Issues related to inter-Korean economic cooperation in the border area were also analyzed to determine regional characteristics. Education and training programs were thus classified into three types of infrastructure units: society, industry, and life infrastructure units. Social infrastructure units are the common demand of the whole border area, including construction of roads, railways, and harbors, as well as inspection and maintenance. Industrial infrastructure units are programs for industrial facilities centering on the designated special economic zone in the western part of the border area. Life infrastructure units are programs for infrastructure facilities such as large, complex facilities and residential facilities for the eastern tourist belt side.
