근로기준법상 법정근로간은 1일 8시간, 주40시간입니다. 정부는 4월 14일부터 인사혁신처를 시작으로 금요일 조기퇴근제를 실시할 예정이라고 하는데요. 주40시간 범위내에서 월~목까지 매일 30분씩 연장 근로하는 대신 한달 중 금 1회 오후 4시에 조기퇴근하는 방식으로 운용될 예정이라고 합니다. 공공기관에서는 이미 유연근로시간제가 실시되고 있는 사업장도 있고 별도 연장 근무 없이 Family day 또는 culture day 등으로 명명하고 월 1회 조기 퇴근하는 제도를 운용하고 있기도 합니다. 기존에 자율적으로 기업형편에 따라 실시되었던 유언근로시간제와 더불어 금 조기퇴근제도는 공기업을 중심으로 좀 더 확대될 것으로 보입니다. 다만 국가공무원법이 적용되는 공무원과 달리 민간부문에서 유연근로시간제도를 도입하고자 할 경우에는 근로기준법을 준수하여야 하므로 법률에서 정한 유연근로시간제도의 유형에 따라 취업규칙의 변경 또는 근로자대표와의 서면합의 등의 절차를 거쳐야 합니다. 금요일 4시 조기퇴근제도는 탄력적 근로시간제도의 일 유형이라고 볼 수 있기에 이번 호에서는 탄력적 근로시간제도에 대해 알아보고자 합니다.

Workaholism refers to a state in which work is the center of self, a state in which other life other than work is deemed worthless, and a state in which one feels that his or her life ends when things get lost. There are concerns that South Korea's work-centered institutions, cultures and long-time labor practices expose workers to workaholism. This study identifies the prevalence of workaholism and its risk factors among workers using a representative sample from Korean Labor and Income Panel Study. The results of empirical analysis of the wide range of workaholism showed that 7.0% of Korean workers were work-addicts. Male, workers working long hours, daily workers, employers, the self-employed were more likely to be work-addicts. Those who think that workload is high beyond regular working hours are more likely to be work-addicts. These results were also confirmed by regression analysis. It suggests that policies to shorten working hours and strengthen job and income stability can reduce the risk of workaholism and balance between work and life.

As the foodservice industry is labor intensive, the efficient management of human resources is an essential element for improving operational efficiency. This study was designed to investigate the performance level of human resource management in self-operated school foodservices and to examine the relationship between human resource management, organizational commitment, and productivity. Whether these factors rated differently by employment and job types was also examined. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 60 dieticians and 240 cooks in Seongnam and Yongin. Frequency analysis, factor analysis, the t-test and multiple regression analysis were tested using Minitab. Human resource management practices rated highly in the dimension of employee training (3.51), followed by working environment (3.39), and turnover management (3.37). In contrast, reward management (1.73) and working condition (1.56) received the lowest score. Organizational commitment scored 3.65 points, and showed that dedication (3.82) was the highest score; however, self-esteem (3.50) was the lowest score. For human resource management, there were significant differences between employment types as full time workers (3.85) rated management more highly than part-time worker (3.43). Overall productivity was fairly high, especially in high school foodservices. Only the performance appraisal had an influence on organizational commitment (${\beta}$=0.292, P<0.05). Productivity was positively correlated with human resource management (r=0.432, P<0.001) and organizational commitment (r=0.36, P<0.01). In conclusion, school foodservices need to establish objective performance standards, and increase employee morale by enhancing reward systems and working conditions. In particular, irregular employees require training with job performance standards and given a proper reward program, depending on their performance, to improve organizational commitment.

Industrial glues, known as 'Bonds' in Korea, contain many kinds of organic solvents, and glue sniffing of youths became one of the social problems in Korea. Mixed exposures to solvents by glue sniffing may induce chronic toxicities different from those by exposures to solvents of single component. To test effects of the glue sniffing on weight gain or central nervous system, two groups of 20 male Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to air(control group) or vapors of the glues to narcotic status(exposed group), and weight check, tail flick test, hot plate test, rotarod treadmill test were done on the 14th,24th, 36th, 45th, 53rd, 86th, 102nd, 117th, 134th and 151st days after the first exposure. On the 188th day, their brains were excised and examined by a pathologist. Weight gain, controlled against time change, showed significant difference between the groups, but response times in tail flick test, hot plate tests, and rotarod treadmill test didn't. In pathological examination with blind method, no macroscopic or microscopic differences were found between the two groups. These results suggests that organic lesion in central nervous system may not ensue glue sniffing, but, before firm conclusion, more studies in various exposure conditions should be followed.
