There have been so many studies related to job stress or musculoskeletal disorders(MSDs) in the shipbuilding industry. However, study of employee performance evaluation that reflect on the industrial features of the deckhouse manufacturing industry has not been established. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate workers' job stress and work ability through statistical significance tests according to age, work types, years of service, work forms and sex. For this, the study conducted a job stress test using the Korean Occupational Stress Questionnaire Short Form, and employee performance evaluations using the Work Ability Index(WAI) of the Finnish Institute of Occupational Health (FIOH) on 536 workers in the deckhouse manufacturing industry. MINITAB statistics program was used for statistics analysis and significance was verified with the Kruskal-Wallis test, a corporate body of nonparametric statistical analysis. As a result, employee performance had significant differences, depending on age, work types, years of service and sex, and job stress also depended on the number of service year and work form. Additionally, it was found that employee performance decreased more as job stress increased.

공정제어시스템과 같은 복잡한 시스템을 감시하고 제어하기 위한 정보 디스플레이를 설계하기 위해 두 가지의 세부적인 설계문제를 효과적으로 다루어야 한다. 정보디스플레이에서 표현할 정보의 내용을 파악하고 조직화하는 문제와 그 표현할 정보를 시각적으로 잘 표현하는 문제로 구분이 된다. Ecological Interface Design (EID)는 두 문제를 다루기 위한 이론적 배경지식과 방법을 제공하는 정보디스플레이 설계의 틀이다. EID는 1990년대 초반에 그 개념적 틀이 소개된 이후에 그 유용성이 여러 작업영역과 직무환경에서 입증되어 왔다. 그러나 실제 현장에서 EID의 개념을 활용하는데 있어 큰 어려움으로 지적된 것이 정보의 시각화를 위한 실용적이고 구체적인 원칙과 방법이 부족하다는 점이었다. 또한 EID 개념의 활용에만 집중할 경우 효과적인 정보 디스플레이 설계를 위해 고려되어야 하는 다른 설계 문제들이 쉽게 간과될 가능성도 높다. 이 점은 아직도 EID의 실제적 활용성을 높이는데 큰 약점으로 지적된다. 이 논문에서는 EID의 개요와 장단점을 소개한 후에 이에 기반해서 정보 디스플레이 설계를 종합적으로 다루는 데 도움이 될 수 있는 방법을 소개한다. 특히 이 논문에서는 기능적으로 추상화된 정보의 시각화 및 추상화 관점에서 다른 단계에 있는 정보들간의 목적-수단 관계를 시각화해서 명시화하는 것을 강조한다. 또한 디스플레이 설계 요소에 기반한 설계 프로세스 및 관련 설계 원칙 및 지침의 적절한 활용도 강조한다. 이 논문에서 제안된 방법은 EID의 개념적 틀을 확장하면서 인간 중심적인 정보 디스플레이의 설계하는데 유용한 원칙과 방향성을 정립하는데 도움이 될 것이다.

This study attempted to evaluate the direct and indirect effect of emotional labor, job and psychosocial stress, and fatigue of beauty industry workers on their musculoskeletal diseases. The findings of this study showed that, among the workers with perceived symptoms of musculoskeletal diseases, the body part with the most commonly occurring symptom was the shoulder, followed by neck, low back, wrist, arm, foot and knee. As for the effect of work-related psychological factors on musculoskeletal diseases, it was found that the workers with musculoskeletal diseases were more affected by emotional labor and fatigue than non-symptom workers. It was also shown that when their job stress increased, the fatigue level also increased, though their psychosocial stress decreased. In addition, it was found that both direct and indirect effects of emotional labor on fatigue were high, and the indirect effect of job stress through fatigue on musculoskeletal diseases was significant.
