As recent safety accidents at construction sites can lead to serious accidents that threaten the lives of workers, the role of safety managers in charge of safety management has emerged. However, the current construction safety management system requires the improvement and simplification of the work contents due to the excessive workload and inefficient safety tasks of each person. In this respect, the main purpose of this study is to reduce the occurrence of construction safety accidents by deriving correlations using 2×2 Matrix analysis techniques through expert opinion, simplifying unnecessary tasks and identifying areas requiring improvement. Therefore, if this research reduces inefficient safety manager work and reduces job stress caused by excessive simple document work, thereby efficiently reorganizing safety manager's work to prevent blind spots of hazards and risks, it will ultimately have a great effect on preventing safety accidents at construction sites.

현재 IT서비스 업체에서 새로운 성장동력으로 떠오르고 있는 분야가 융복합사업(IT+IT, IT+장비, IT+장비+시공)이라고 불리우는 컨버전스 프로젝트이다. 기존의 IT분야의 프로젝트와는 전혀 다른 특성을 갖고 있는 컨버전스 프로젝트에 대한 IT서비스 업체의 준비는 아직 미흡한 것이 현실이다. LG CNS에서는 이런 현실에서 컨버전스 프로젝트의 특성에 맞추어 기존 프로젝트 관리자(Project Manager)의 역할을 재정의하고 이를 현장에 적용시키기 위해 그동안의 컨버전스 프로젝트를 수행하면서 얻은 이슈에 HPT(Human Performance Technology; 수행공학)를 적용하여 조직적인 차원에서 프로젝트 관리자의 육성 로드맵을 만들고 이를 확산시키는 활동을 진행하고 있다. 이에 본 발표에서는 HPT측면에서 컨버전스 프로젝트 이행역량을 강화하기 위한 사례를 소개하고자 한다.

The success of construction projects is heavily dependent on the work ability of the field managers who manage the execution of projects. The work ability of field managers is influenced by various elements such as job stress and individual characteristics. The purpose of this study is to reveal the factors influencing the work ability of construction field managers in Korea. Work ability is evaluated bases on the Work Ability Index(WAI) developed by the Finnish Institute of Occupational Health, while job stress is measured using the Korean Occupational Stress Questionnaire Short Form developed by the Korean Occupational Safety & Health Agency. The results showed that field managers under higher job stress have lower work abilities. In addition, it is revealed that exercise or religious practice have a positive influence on work ability. This study will help to increase the work ability and enable the efficient management of organization at building construction sites.

It has been widely-reported that the quality of life in Korea is lower than that of the economic growth. In particular, construction managers are reported to have a lower quality of life compared to people in other job types due to the specific nature of the tasks they have to carry out. These include early work attendance time and fewer holidays. In this respect, the aim of this study is to analyse construction managers' requirements on work-life balance. The results showed that the working hours of construction managers were long and their leisure hours were shorter. The requirements for work-life balance were in the order of non-working time, working time, salary, and job security. The requirements by group showed a statistically significant difference in work hours. The requirements on the shortening of work hours were highest in the group of "section chiefs and deputy heads" and lowest in the group of "department heads" and up. It is hoped that the results of this study will be used as basic data for future government-level policy making and construction companies' business directions in relation to the improvement of workers' work-life balance.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of smart construction equipment applied at the construction site of the first smart city in the Korea and derive an application strategy for the utilization of smart construction equipment. To achieve this, aythors examined the practical effects and issues of safety systems and construction systems utilizing machine guidance (MG) technology, which is a representative smart construction equipment used in civil engineering construction sites. Both the MG safety system and MG construction system were found to be sufficiently effective in improving construction productivity. However, there are challenges that need to be addressed, such as the approval process for work results using MG systems, system changes due to frequent replacement of on-site equipment, and usability improvements for elderly on-site workers. The study presented some solutions that have been implemented on-site to address these issues. The utilization effects and issues presented in the study were analyzed through direct feedback from workers and managers who have utilized the MG technology on-site for a considerable period of time. These results can be used as preliminary data for the similar construction projects, considering the limited availability of empirical analysis data for equipment automation.

The communication issue in the building construction site organization effects on the job stress of the field mangers, because the field managers are working with various members in the construction site organization. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of opponents' communication styles on job stress of the building construction field managers. As a result of this study, it was found that the job stress felt by the building construction field managers was differed according to the opponents' communication styles. In special, when the communication style of the opponents of construction field managers was an emotive style or a director style, job stress was higher. However it was a supportive style or a reflective style, job stress was lower. The results of this study are expected to help to build the site organizational management system to improve the performance of construction work in the building construction projects.

In Korea construction project case, architectural construction project is curtailed production because information network process within multidisciplinary isn't smooth. Particularly, the construction is not insufficient about performance, cost and material, construction process, etc. in result various question arises because of design error in construction step. And various mistake is made because communication path within multidisciplinary isn't smooth in architectural design and design change process. This research proposed the optimization method of building system which is satisfied with performance of building, cost, constructability, and proposed the information management plan which is connected with that. And The construction information in this research is restricted to design/construction information which is considerate in design step.

Practical and efficient application of lean construction, which has been proposed as an alternative to the limitations of traditional construction management methods, was developed to facilitate application on site and improve productivity through the fusion of traditional construction management methods. The concepts of Lean Time and Lean Cycle Time, which are the principles of lean construction, were introduced to eliminate waste and smooth flow production and pursuit of perfection, and the goal of establishing and improving the criteria for measurement and improvement was established and the information collection template was configured and applied to ensure reliability of measurement and analysis. Based on this, the project feasibility, reliability, and continuous improvement process were applied to the Field case to verify its effectiveness.

The competition of construction market is keener, so construction companies are seeking the methods for improving the performance. Construction field organizations and managers should have an innovative behavior to improve the performance. However, construction field organizations and managers are negative to innovation because they are generally conservative. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze the factors to influence the innovative behavior of building construction field managers. In this study, self-leadership, feedback seeking behavior and job involvement are selected the factors to influence the innovative behavior by literature reviewing. The results of correlation analysis showed that the behavior-focused strategies in self-leadership and the job involvement influence the innovative behavior of building construction field managers. In addition, the individual characteristics such as marriage, experience, position and type of employ influence the innovative behavior of their. This study is expected to help to improve the performance management system in construction field organizations.
