This study was conducted on workers in high risk groups. And the effects of improper equipment wear on the recognition of safety accidents and job exhaustion. In addition, the mediating effect of the recognition of safety accident risk was identified. The results of the analysis are as follows. Because high-risk workers wear inappropriate equipment, emotions are depleted and personalization problems arise. And the mediating effect of the recognition of safety accident risk. Therefore, there is a need to provide generous support to ensure that high-risk workers are able to work properly in hazardous workplaces, so that they can wear appropriate equipment to defend the risks.

Since the marine accidents increase with the increased volume of traffic, preventive surveillance technology for safety navigation of the ships before the accident is being emphasized to secure the safety at sea along with post-accident measures. This paper aims to suggest a design based on an integrated safety management platform systems to support nautical safety, implements of bridge operation terminal equipments and alarm system for bridge watch monitoring and abnormal state of navigation/propulsion/machinery/power, and performs a quality evaluation for the actual boarding on the ship based on the classification standards.

This study was started with concern about problem of increasing physical and personal injury caused by traffic accidents, despite of technological advances in transportation. As the vehicles, which is currently produced, informs the driver only detecting the proximity of an object by the front and rear sensor, this study implemented the color detection algorithm, the circular shape recognition algorithm, and the distance recognition algorithm and built the accident prevention beyond accident perception, which commends to avoid the object or to stop the robot, if object was detected by algorithms. For the simulation, we made the Arduino vehicle robot equipped with compact wireless communication camera and confirmed that the robot successfully avoids an object or stops itself in simulated driving.

This is a research of an adaptive longitudinal control system for situated cognition in wide range, traffic accidents reduction and safety driving environment by integrated system which graft a road infrastructure's information based on IT onto the intelligent vehicle combined automobile and IT technology. The road infrastructure installed by laser scanner in intersection, speed limited area and sharp curve area where is many risk of traffic accident. The road infra conducts objects recognition, segmentation, and tracking for determining dangerous situation and communicates real-time information by Ethernet with vehicle. Also, the data which transmitted from infrastructure supports safety driving by integrated with laser scanner's data on vehicle bumper.

In Fukushima accident, when the severe accident such as a natural disaster happens, it is impossible to monitor the plant status due to a extreme environment and station blackout and most I&C systems break downs. Finally, these cause the loss of emergency cooling function and thus results in a hydrogen explosion and radiation leak. In this paper, the emergency response system is introduced that monitors and controls properly when the sever accidents like Fukushima accident happen, And the performance requirements of a wireless communication system used in the emergency respons system is described and the performance of emergency communication system is analyzed using the markov model.

In order to obtain basic reference information for the establishment of effective industrial safety programmes in migrant workers who live in Seoul and Kyungin Area, accident causes were investigated among 210 injured workers. The data were analyzed according to the USA Standards Institute and International Labour Organization method. The results obtained were as follows: 1. The major distribution of national were mostly from china(82.9%), ages are mostly between 30 and 40 years old(32%), and males are more than females, and mostly married. 2. The parts of body most frequently injured were hand and finger, foot and toe, which were 55.3% of total 210 cases. 3. According to the accident type, caught in, under or between were most frequently observed, 40.2% of the total number of injuries. 4. The most responsible source of injuries were power machine, others, moving machine and tool, building construction. 5. According to the unsafe acts, carelessness and unsafety information were most frequently observed, 66.7% of the total number of injuries. 6. There were significantly difference(p<0.05), between type of accident and source of injury, and between working period and unsafe act.

Natural disasters can cause major accidents in chemical facilities where they can lead to the release of hazardous materials which in turn can result in fires, explosions or toxic dispersion. Technological disasters triggered by natural disasters are referred to as NaTech(Natural Disaster Triggered Technological Disaster). These trends increase the probability of catastrophic future disasters and the potential for mass human exposure to hazardous materials released during disasters. In the present study, we proposed some methods for effective disaster management by conducting case study of major NaTech. First, establishing information sharing system of chemical accident for stakeholders and improving disaster manuals and standards of central and local government and co-operation support system. Second, activating information service of emergency planning and community right to know. Third, improving the integrated chemical accident database including NaTech accidents.

The event of a Chemical disaster response personnel are causative events quickly Appearance & residual contaminant concentrations, should be identified accurately. In addition, the chemical disaster response procedure appropriate progress in the field of Chemical Composition and contaminant concentrations in order confirmation is essential. Use in the field to using the characteristics of each equipment. on-Site response equipment can not verify all the chemicals, materials detection, limited by each equipment. Detection range of equipment & specific materials should be considered complementary. In this study, using the equipment on-site detection of detection kit and detector tube, electronic detection equipment utilized for the rapid response procedure for helping a person to cope.

Purpose: This study was to obtain information regarding to agricultural accidents in farm workers in the Kyungpook area. Methods: A questionnaire survey was carried out for 528 workers from the 1st to 31st of March, 2007. Frequency, percentage, mean and chi-square test with the SPSS program were used to analyze the data. Results: The causes of agricultural accidents include falling(29.0%), overseeing(18.9%), traffic accident(17.4%), putting between machinery(11.7%), crashing(5.3%), fire (0.6%) in the order of frequency. Injuries from agricultural accidents include fracture(44.7%) cerebral bleeding (10.4%), amputation(7.0%), airway obstruction (2.3%) burn(1.9%), drug addiction(1.9%) in the order of frequency. The largest proportion of the subjects of hospital treatment were in their 50s and belonged to the group of high-level economic state. Agricultural machinery collision was the most frequent cause among the subjects of hospital treatment. Conclusion: These results suggest that carelessness can be a potential risk factor for agricultural accidents in farm workers. These findings may give useful information for developing agricultural accident prevention programs for farm workers.
