According to the Ministry of Employment and Labor's statistics on occupational fatalities in South Korea, more than half of the fatalities in the past five years have occurred in the construction industry. The stuck-by and caught-in-between accidents associated with construction equipment is the major source of fatalities from construction sites. In order to prevent such accidents in construction sites, the government has spent lots of efforts including proposing the "special law on construction safety" and encouraging the implementation of new technology for accident prevention. However, numerous accidents are still occurred at construction sites and further efforts are still required. In this manner, this study developed a collision prevention technique that can prevent collision between equipment and worker by recognizing location and type of the nearby objects through ultrasound scanning. The study conducted a pilot experiment and the analysis results demonstrate the feasibility of achieving high performance in both object recognition and location estimation. The developed technique will contribute to prevent collision accidents at construction sites and provide the supplemental knowledge on developing automated collision prevention system for construction equipment.

There have been a lot of marine accident due to the increasing transportation by sea in accordance with economic growth. Accordingly, we are fully aware of the importance of the development of safety control system so that many prevent the sacrifice of life and disasters on the sea. The objective·e of this research in to investigate the more effective system by establishing the prevention of safety accident and marine information system as a national project.

위험 유해물질(Hazardous and Noxious Substances) 과 유출에 및 그 대응 기술에 관한 연구는 활발히 이루어졌지만 HNS 선박 승무원 안전 관리 연구는 미흡한 면이 있다. 승무원은 HNS 사고를 미연에 예방하고, 대비할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 사고의 초등 대응 책임자로서 재해 감소에 큰 역할을 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 승무원 재해를 분류 및 구조화하고 Risk 평가하였다. 현 HNS 선박의 방제자원을 분석하여 승무원 Risk를 기반으로 사고 초기 대비 대응력 강화를 위한 방안을 제시하였다. 연구결과를 바탕으로 HNS 선박의 방제자원 모델 개발을 위한 연구를 수행해 나갈 예정이다.

In accordance with the Act on Punishment of Serious Disasters, terminal operators are required to establish and operate a safety and health management system such as manpower and budget necessary for disaster prevention, and establish and implement measures to prevent recurrence in the event of a disaster. This is a study on how to use the port facility safety management system linkage to prevent safety accidents in port facilities due to the introduction of autonomous driving port equipment and to support decision-making promptly in case of safety accidents.

This study aims to develop a framework for an accident prediction model leveraging a deep neural network algorithm, specifically tailored for small-scale construction sites. Notably, the incidence of accidents in the construction sector is markedly higher compared to other industries, with a significant contribution from small-scale sites. The challenging nature of construction in urban settings, coupled with the increasing frequency of adverse weather conditions, is likely to escalate accident risks at these sites. Anticipating and mitigating accidents at small-scale construction sites is therefore crucial to decrease the overall industry accident rate. Consequently, this research introduces a Deep Neural Network-based model for forecasting accidents at small-scale construction sites. The framework and findings of this study are poised to serve as a guideline for the safety management of small-scale construction projects, ultimately aiding in the realization of safer, more sustainable construction practices at these sites.

Human error, a leading cause of construction accidents, emphasizes the need for minimization to reduce such incidents. However, due to the nature of the construction industry, workers operate within the collective environment of a construction site. Therefore, this study investigates the influence of safety awareness levels within construction sites on the human errors committed by construction workers, from an organizational perspective. The analysis revealed that human errors directly impact construction accidents and that safety awareness levels within construction sites influence the human errors committed by construction workers. Specifically, a strong correlation was observed between slip errors(unintentional actions or oversights) and safety awareness levels in nearly all domains of construction site safety. This study highlights that by elevating safety awareness levels within construction sites, the likelihood of construction worker slips - and by extension, construction accidents - can be significantly reduced.

최근 전기설비는 과학기술의 발달에 힘입어 적용범위가 날로 확대되고 있으며 설비형태도 첨단화 다양화되고 있어 이러한 전기설비를 취급하는 기회가 늘어나는 전기직 종사자에 대한 감전사고 등의 재해우려가 높아지게 되었다. 또한, 기술적 향상만큼이나 인간의 안전의식은 뒤따르지 못하고 있으며 이는 지금까지 발생한 전기재해 통계를 보더라도 인적과오가 원인이 되어 발생한 사고가 많다는 것이 입증되었다. (중략)

배전선로는 항상 각종 공작물과 아주 가까운 상태에서 존재하고 있어 배전선로 근접 작업 시 전력선에 근접으로 인한 섬락 또는 접촉으로 작업원이 감전 재해를 입을 수 있으며 또는 비, 바람, 조류 등에 의한 이물 접촉으로 설비 고장을 유발 시킬 수 있다. 이러한 감전재해 및 설비고장을 예방하기 위하여 22.9kV-y 전력선의 직선부분에 사용할 수 있는 직선형 방호관을 개발하여 건설현장 주변의 전력선에 방호조치 함으로서 전력선 근접 작업 시 작업종사자의 안전 확보에 이바지함은 물론 정전사고방지에도 크게 기여하여 왔다. 그러나 22.9kV-y 배전선로의 점퍼선부분과 변압기의 인상선 등 곡선으로 되었거나 구불구불한 형상으로 된 부위는 직선형 방호관으로는 방호조치가 불가능하여 산업안전보건법이 정한 산업안전기준에 관한 규칙 제327조 제2호에 의한 방호조치를 취하지 않고 근접작업이 진행되어 감전재해와 정전사고가 발생되어 왔었다. 한전에서 협력업체와 공동으로 연구개발한 소용돌이형 점퍼선방호관을 그동안 방호조치를 취하지 못한 점퍼선이나 구불구불한 전력선부위에 방호조치를 함으로서 감전재해의 예방과 정전사고 발생을 획기적으로 감소시킬 것으로 기대된다.

건설현장의 안전사고는 안전불감증과 허술한 재난관리시스템으로 인한 인재(人災)가 대부분이다. 따라서 여름 장마철과 혹서기에 대비, 현장의 감전사고 및 침수 붕괴재해 예방, 그 밖의 수해방지대책 등을 수립해 현장근로자에게 사전교육을 철저히 하는 것이 재해예방의 첫걸음이다. 특히 재난관리시스템 및 매뉴얼을 구축한 뒤 재난 유형과 상활별 시나리오를 구성, 이를 바탕으로 사전교육과 모의훈련을 통해 긴급조치 및 대피계획을 수립 실시하는 등 구체적인 재해대책 요령을 숙지하면 재해를 줄일 수 있다. 본지는 회원사의 공사안전에 참고가 되도록 한국산업안전보건공단에서 제공한 장마철 혹서기 건설 현장 안전지침을 게재한다.
