This research was conducted to provide an improvement plan concerning medical treatment on board and medical health care conditions for seafarers. 139 persons from government agencies and seafarer related organizations, who could influence the government's seafarers healthcare policy-making, were asked to fill in the questionnaire prepared for this research about their perceptive views on actual condition of health and disease management for seafarers. The results of the survey on seafarer's health care management conditions(p<0.01), health care manage ability(p<0.01), current radio emergency medical service policy(p<0.01), usefulness of on board medicine chest and medical equipment(p<0.05), and the system of the onboard medical care persons show the difference of perception level among the seafarer related organizations. But generally, the rate of negative responses was high. And this research suggests that there is an urgent need to provide portable health measurement equipment on board, reenforce regular medical examination and establish the seafarer's health promotion center for telemedicine and healthcare management(p<0.01) in order to improve the onboard medical treatment support system for healthcare of seafarers.

This study aimed to empirically identify the determinants of turnover intention of seafarers under the recognition that the number of seamen is decreasing. The results of regression analyses on questionnaire survey data are as follows. The more satisfied over wage and working condition, the lower the level of turnover intention of seafarers. The higher social identification and career vision, the lower the level of turnover intention of seafarers. In addition to this, older, married seamen were found to have lower turnover intention as compared to younger, unmarried ones. Lastly, four-year college graduates were, on the other hand, found to have higher turnover intention.

해사노동협약이 2013년 8월 20일부로 발효되었다. 해사노동협약의 여러 규정들 중에 최소휴식시간 규정은 선원의 근로조건과 직결되는 사항이기도 하며 선주의 비용적 측면에서도 중요한 사항이다. 본 연구에서는 국내에서 최소휴식시간 규정이 어떻게 적용되고 있는지를 실제 선박에 승선하고 있는 선원들을 대상으로 설문을 시행하여 208명의 응답을 분석하였다. 응답자의 80% 이상이 국제항해에 종사하는 선원이었으며 설문결과 73% 이상의 선원이 해사노동협약에 대한 이해도를 어느 정도 가지고 있었다. 그러나 70% 정도의 응답자가 최소휴식시간 규정이 준수되지 않고 있다고 응답하였으며 그러한 이유로 바쁜 선박일정과 이로인하 과도한 업무부하를 지적하였다. 그럼에도 응답자의 90% 이상이 최소휴식시간규정 미 준수에 대한 보상은 거의 이루어지고 있지 않다고 응답고 근무시간도 실제로 작성하기 보다는 관련 검사를 통과하기 위해서 실제와는 다르게 축소하여 작성하는 경우가 90% 이상 이었다. 이러한 문제점들에 대한 해결하는 방법으로 해사노동협약에서 언급하고 있는 선원불만 고충처리 제도를 활용한 경우는 4%에 불과 했다. 전체적으로 국내 선원들은 최소휴식시간과 관련된 규정과 이의 적용에 대해서 매우 부정적인 생각을 가지고 있는 상황이었고 선원들은 이에 대한 해결 방안으로 승무정원 증가, 선원노조의 충실한 역할, 선주의 인식 변화 등을 제시하였다.

All people have human rights that should be protected, and today, the importance of protecting human rights is emphasized in all areas of society. The industry is also carrying out activities to protect the human rights of workers, such as implementing human rights education for human rights management and preparing a response system for human rights violations. However, due to the closed environment and special working conditions, seafarers on board are often placed in a blind spot in human rights protection. In particular, a number of cases of human rights violations concerning beginner seafarers, including cadets, have been identified, and relevant research is insufficient compared to other occupational groups. Jobs that restrict basic human rights cannot be envied by anyone. In this study, implications and problems were derived based on the results of a human rights survey of cadets, and cases of human rights violations, and improvement measures were proposed. The cadets had a very negative perception of human rights violations before boarding. However, it was found that their perception changed after boarding. It was confirmed that cadets have unnecessary fears and concerns before boarding. Improvement measures include the establishment of a legal system for the status of cadets, measures to alleviate non-physical human rights violations, improvement of human rights violations handling procedures and response systems, and enhancing the effectiveness of human rights education.

This paper presents a VR-simulated sailor training platform for emergency in order to prevent a human error that causes 60~80% of domestic/ abroad marine accidents. Through virtual reality technology, the proposed platform provides an interaction method for proficiency of procedures in emergency, and a crowd control method for controlling crowd agents in a virtual ship environment. The interaction method uses speech recognition and gesture recognition to enhance the immersiveness and efficiency of the training. The crowd control method provides natural simulations of crowd agents by applying a behavior model that reflects the social behavior model of human. To examine the efficiency of the proposed platform, a prototype whose virtual training scenario describes the outbreak of fire in a ship was implemented as a standalone system.

This study is based on Degree of Recognition and AHP surveys for experts, this study investigates changes in the demand of seafarers in response to changes in the shipping industry environment in which Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships(MASS) emerge according to the application of the fourth industrial revolution technology to ships, and it looks into changes in seafarers' skills. It also analyzes and proposes a plan for cultivating seafarers accordingly. As a result of Degree of Recognition and AHP analysis, it is analyzed that a new training system is required because the current training and education system may cover the job competencies of emergency response, caution and danger navigation, general sailing, cargo handling, seaworthiness maintenance, emergency response, and ship maintenance and management, but jobs such as remote control, monitoring diagnosis, device management capability, and big data analysis require competency for unmanned and shore based control.By evaluating the importance of change factors in the duties of seafarers in Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships, this study provides information on seafarers educational institutions response strategies for nurturing seafarers and prioritization of resource allocation, etc. The importance of factors was compared and evaluated to suggest changes in the duties of seafarers and methods of nurturing seafarers according to the introduction of Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships.It is expected that this study is meaningful as it systematically derived the duties and competency factors of seafarers of Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships from a practical point of view and analyzed the perception level of each relevant expert to diagnose expert-level responses to the introduction of Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships.

As the Port State Control Inspection recognized that almost marine casualties are caused by human faults rather than vessel's defaults, it has put more emphasis on the qualification of ships' crew and the education required. Accordingly, for shipping companies it is an urgent task to operate effective crew education system that can meet the standards of international agreements and domestic laws. Therefore, this study aims at deriving the attitude of crews of 'S' shipping company on the education and some implication for the effective crew education systems. For this questionnaire survey has been carried out and the data analysed by the respondent groups.

Recently, with economic growth and changes of recognition, the many research into vocational disease is in the process of advancing inside and outside of the country and it follows in research and also produce satisfactory results. However, as compared to the crew s service environment, system research into the occupational illness occurring in embarkation service is not accomplished After attacking the occupational illness, only the research to the compensation is conducted Therefore, this study examines law and system of the occupational illness based on basic research into crew's occupational disease and after disease preventing and attacking of the crew, give some legal reform measures to support quick and appropriate.
