매년 사업주와 근로자로부터 상담한 내용을 돌아보면 우리 사회 노동시장의 현안이 무엇인지, 인권수준은 어떠한지, 노동행정의 방향이 어떠한지를 확연히 체감하게 된다. 그 중 하나가 육아휴직제도이다. 20년 전만 하더라도 육아휴직은 거의 허용되지 않았다. 결혼 또는 임신하면 퇴직이 관행이던 시절이었다. 관행에도 불구하고 임신한 근로자가 퇴직하지 않으면 출 퇴근이 어려운 지방으로 배치전환하거나, 직무를 변경하고, 담배연기 가득한 방 가운데 여성근로자를 근무시키는 비인간적인 처사도 행해졌다. 2~3년 전만 하더라도 "우리 회사는 육아휴직은 안된대요. 그럴바엔 그만두래요. 아이 맡길 곳도 만만치 않은데 어쩌면 좋아요"라는 여성근로자들의 상담이 한달에도 몇 건씩 쏟아져 나왔었다. 초기 여성노무사가 소수이다 보니 워킹맘들의 노동법률상담을 할 기회가 많았다. 때론 사업주들을 설득하고, 중재하고, 처벌조항을 들어 압박하기도 하면서 육아휴직을 권장했지만 기존의 관행과 문화가 일시에 변화하기는 어려운 일이다. 여성의 경제활동율이 늘어나고 출산율이 줄어들면서 정책적으로 출산 및 육아휴직을 장려하는 정부의 감독행정 강화, 그간 노동계 및 시민사회단체의 노력 등으로 인해 법률에 규정된 육아휴직제도가 비로소 현실적으로 보장되어가고 있음을 목도한다. 이즈음에 육아휴직자의 연차휴가 사용, 퇴직금, 육아휴직급여 등에 대한 문의가 많은데 그만큼 육아휴직자가 늘어났다는 것을 반증하는 결과이다. 따라서 이번호에서는 출산휴가 및 육아휴직자들의 연차휴가 사용과 퇴직금 산정방법, 출산 육아휴직급여에 대해 알아보고자 한다.

Methods: 151 married immigrant women who visited 3 women's hospitals located in J-do for pre-pregnancy checkup were selected as study objects. Data were analyzed by dsecriptive statistics, cluster analysis, t-test, ANOVA, and $Scheff{\acute{e}}$ multiple comparison test. Results: Cluster analysis revealed 4 distinct stress coping styles; low stress-coping involvement social support-oriented type, high stress-coping involvement hopeful thinking type, low stress-coping involvement type, effective stress coping types. Women frequently using effective stress coping type among the four types reported higher maternal-fetal attachment. The group of active coping styles got significantly higher score on maternal identity.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify relationships of periodontal disease and health related quality of life (HRQoL) in pregnant women. Methods: The participants in this study were 129 pregnant women. Data were collected using questionnaires of characteristics of the participants and subjective perception of periodontal disease and a dentist's assessment of periodontal disease. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlation, and hierarchical multiple regression. Results: The physical QoL showed significant negative correlation with subjective perception of periodontal disease (r=-.21, p=.013). Mental QoL had significant negative correlations with subjective perception of periodontal disease (r=-.32, p<.001) and objective periodontal disease (r=-.34, p<.001). Hierarchical multiple regression analyses revealed that pregnant women who had a history of abortion and had higher subjective perception of periodontal disease tended to report lower levels of physical QoL. Pregnant women whose age are between 30-34 years and higher subjective perception and objective periodontal disease tended to report lower mental QoL. Conclusion: To improve HRQoL of pregnant women, nurses should pay attention on the status of periodontal disease. Careful assessment of oral healthy behaviors and proper intervention for oral health of pregnant women are needed to enhance HRQoL of pregnant women.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to look into back pain, pain disability, labour pain, and related areas of pain experienced by postpartum women. Method: A survey about pain including a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Oswestry pain disability, and pain drawing was used in a descriptive research method on 98 women 2-3 days after delivery. Result: 57.1% of those surveyed reported experiencing back pain before pregnancy. 75.5% reported experiencing back pain during pregnancy. The average starting time of back pain for pregnant women was 2.9 months into pregnancy. 48.8% reported the most severe back pain in the last trimester of pregnancy, while most women complained of left and right pubic pain and lumbar area pain during pregnancy. Statistical relations were calculated and menstrual symptoms (F=5.938, p=0.004), back pain prior to pregnancy (F=4.714, p=0.000), back pain during pregnancy (F=-3.429, p=0.001), and back pain disability prior to pregnancy (F=-1.994). Conclusion: There is a relation in postpartum women's back pain between back pain prior to pregnancy and back pain during pregnancy. Pelvic examinations early in pregnancy can determine if back pain will change for the worse or relapse. Therefore, the application of a pain relieving nursing intervention is needed.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a scale to assess immigrant women's needs for pregnancy and postpartum adaptation and to test the reliability and validity of the scale. Methods: To construct scale items, critical issues and difficulties associated with pregnancy and postpartum adaptation of immigrant women were identified and categorized through a literature review. Fifty-two scale items were constructed, and data for validity and reliability testing was collected with a questionnaire survey from 367 immigrant women. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, factor analysis, and reliability coefficients. Results: The final measurement scale to assess immigrant women's pregnancy and postpartum adaptation consisted of 48 items and 7 factors (adaptation to daily activity during pregnancy, cross-cultural understanding and personal respect, understanding of the process of pregnancy and delivery, baby rearing and family support, physical and emotional adaptation after childbirth, nutrition during pregnancy, and sexual life adaptation). The seven factors accounted for 64.26% of the variance, and Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ was .96. Conclusion: The scale developed by this study is a reliable and valid instrument and can be used to assess needs of pregnancy and postpartum adaptation and can be utilized in providing nursing interventions for immigrant women.

Purpose: To identify needs for pregnancy and postpartum adaptation of Chinese immigrant women and Vietnamese immigrant women in South Korea. Methods: A descriptive research design was employed. Data were collected from 244 Chinese immigrant women and Vietnamese immigrant women from 3 provinces, 20 health care centers, and multi-cultural family support centers. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, t-test and ANOVA. Results: An average score for needs perceived by Chinese immigrant women was significantly higher than that perceived by Vietnamese immigrant women. There were significantly differences in physical and emotional adaptation after childbirth, nutrition during pregnancy, cross cultural understanding and personal respect, and adaptation daily activity during pregnancy between the 2 groups. The highest score of needs in Chinese immigrant women was for nutrition during pregnancy and that in Vietnamese immigrant women was for baby rearing and family support. Conclusion: Based on needs of pregnancy and postpartum adaption, nursing intervention program in consideration of cultural characteristics of Chinese immigrant women and Vietnam immigrant women need to be developed for their pregnancy and postpartum health care.

Osteoporosis associated with pregnancy and lactation is a rare disease that can cause osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF). Patients usually complain of severe back pain, which is easily mistaken for pain due to pregnancy, childbirth, and lactation, making a rapid diagnosis and treatment difficult. The authors diagnosed OVCF related to pregnancy and lactation through a physical examination, simple radiography, whole-body bone scan, magnetic resonance image, bone marrow density, and blood tests in a 29-year-old female patient and a 31-year-old female patient who presented with low back pain. This paper reports two cases of symptom improvement through a teriparatide injection, wearing thoracic lumbar sacral orthosis and taking calcium and vitamin D with a review of the literature.

통계청의 '2018년 경력단절여성 현황'을 보면, 지난해 4월 기준으로 15~54세 기혼여성 가운데 경력단절여성은 184만7000명으로 전년 대비 1만5000명(0.8％) 늘었다. 경력단절여성의 비중도 20.5％로 1년 전보다 0.5％포인트 상승했다. 2015년 21.7％, 2016년 20.5％, 2017년 20.0％로 점차 떨어지다가 다시 반등세로 돌아섰다. 경력단절여성의 경우 재취업 성공도 힘들었다. 지난해 경력단절 후 다시 취업한 기혼여성은 1년 전보다 50만7000명(19.6％) 줄어든 208만3000명으로 2014년 통계작성 이후 가장 적었다. 경력단절 후 다시 취업한 이들의 비중도 지난해 23.1％로 최저였다. 경제활동을 시작하는 20대부터 경력을 쌓아가는 30대, 40대는 노동자의 생산성이 증폭되는 시기인데, 정작 여성은 이 연령대에 결혼 임신 출산 육아로 인해 경력이 단절되는 현실이다. 본 연구는 우리나라 경력단절여성의 자기지각, 사회적지지 및 대처행동이 취창업의지와 삶의 질에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구로 최근의 정부정책에 있어서 이슈가 되고 있는 사항들을 연구할 예정이다.
