The population over 65 years of age in Korea will be 10.3% of the entire population in 2008 indicating that Korea is already in an aging society. In addition, it is expected that Korea will be in an aged society in 2018 (population over 65 years of age : 14.3%) and that it will be in a post-aged society in 2026 (20.8%). Consequently, aged workers may also increase. It is well-known that the possibility to work longer and to live better is highly related to the work ability of individual. The objective of this study was to evaluate the work ability of each age group using the Work Ability Index(WAI) in the shipbuilding industry, and to assess the effects of social psychological stress, drinking characteristics, smoking characteristics, etc. on the WAI score. The results showed no significant difference on the effects of aging, drinking, and smoking characteristics. Interestingly, a statistical analysis on the effects of social psychological stress revealed a significant difference by stress levels. The difference of the average WAI score between the healthy group and the high risk group was about 10 points. Based on this result, it can be concluded that the stress level is an influential factor on WAI.

본 연구는 65세 미만 성인과 65세 이상 노인에서 고혈압 위험요인을 파악하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 6차 고령화 연구패널조사를 활용하여 6,152명의 연구대상자를 분석하였으며, 수집된 자료는 SPSS 23을 이용하여 카이검정과 로지스틱 회귀분석을 시행하였다. 고혈압 유병률에 영향을 미치는 위험요인에 대한 로지스틱 회귀분석 결과는 65세 미만 성인과 65세 이상 노인 둘 다에서, 주관적 건강상태, 당뇨병 유무, 심장질환 유무, BMI에 따른 비만정도가 위험요인으로 나타났고, 65세 미만에서는 만성폐질환, 소화기계 질환, 음주가, 65세 이상에서는 거주지역, 관절염 및 류마티스 질환, 흡연, 인지기능 정도가 고혈압에 영향을 미치는 위험요인으로 나타났다. 우리나라는 급속한 고령화 현상으로 인해 체계적이고 정책적인 만성질환관리가 절실하다. 특히, 나이에 따라 꾸준히 증가하는 고혈압에 대한 효과적인 관리를 위해 연령대에 따른 위험요인을 분석하는 것은 중요하다. 따라서 개인적 노후준비 뿐만 아니라 전반적인 사회복지수준 향상 및 노인복지대책을 통해 질병에 대한 관리가 필요하다.

In order to find out the status of health care of the old aged people (age of 65 and over) in a rural area, a study was carried out, through analyzing the data of health care clinic for 207 old aged people with geriatric diseases, and of questionnired survey for 84 old aged people with geriatric diseases in a rural community. Su Dong-Myun. Nam Yang Zu-Gun, Kyung Gi-Do, Korea, during the year of 1989. The following results were obtained. 1) The composition rate of population of age of 65 and over was 9.8% in total, and sex-specific composition rate was 9.3% in male and 10.4% in female. 2) Utilization rate of health care clinic for old aged people with geriatric diseases was the highest rate with 37.9%, through individual letters at the first time, and showed gradually decreasing tendency afterward. 3) In the means of utilization advices to health care clinic for the old aged people. the individual letters(37.9%) at the first time were more effective than public information of the old aged hall or/and Myun office(18.4%). 4) In opinion on utilization of health subcenter-health care clinic for the old aged people "will utilize"(59.5%) was the highest and "do not know"(26.2%) "be difficult to utilize" (9.5%) and "will not utilize"(4.8%) were in the next order. 5) Out of 84 respondents, the old aged people With geriatric diseases, 73.8%(about three-fourths) of them answered "their diseases to the aggravated" (29.8%) "not to be changed"(25.0%) and "to be unknown"(19.0%), and the others(26.2% of them) "to be changed for the better". 6) Out of 62 respondents(the old aged people), answered their geriatric diseases not to be changed for the better, "no curative effect" was the highest with 43.5% of them.

Undernutrition could be a significant deterrent to healthy aging and could negatively affect health outcomes in elderly. This study aimed to assess health-related factors which are associated with nutritional risks in middle-aged and elderly individuals by a cross-sectional study. Interviews were conducted with 2660 subjects (847 males, 1813 females), aged 50 years and over, in 15 cities in Korea. Data on food intake were obtained through a validated semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaires. Nutritional status were analyzed according to health-related factors including cigarette smoking, alcohol drinking, exercise, stress and depression level. Less regular exercise was associated with a higher likelihood of a poor nutrition [odds ratio (OR) 1.94; 95% confidence intervals (CI) 1.43-2.65] of middle-aged and elderly male subjects. Cigarette smoking (OR 1.84; 95% CI 1.24-2.71), less exercise (OR 2.58; 95% CI 2.07-3.21), stress (OR 1.73; 95% CI 1.36-2.22), and depression (OR 1.34, 95% CI 1.08-1.67) of middle-aged and elderly female subjects was associated with a higher likelihood of a poor nutrition. The results of the multiple regression analysis showed that less exercise proved to be the strongest predictors for the poor nutrition, followed by stress, smoking, and depression (model $R^2= 9.0%$). It suggests that guidance to promote regular exercise, to quit smoking, to minimize stress and depression level might help to improve nutritional status of middle-aged and elderly in Korea. These findings also suggest that having recommendable health behaviors are beneficial to the good nutrition of subjects aged 50 years and over.

본 연구는 고령화연구패널조사(KLoSA)를 활용하여 중 고령층의 연령대에 따른 고용변화 특성을 종단적으로 분석하고, 고용안정성의 탈빈곤 효과를 추정하였다. 연구 결과 현재의 중 고령층은 조기퇴직 등으로 인해 50대 중반 이후 급격한 고용불안을 경험하며, 이후 재취업이 어려워 향후 노후소득보장 측면에서 위험이 큰 집단으로 나타났다. 특히 시간이 지날수록 중 고령층의 고용불안이 심화되고 있으며, 고령일수록 고용상 지위가 악화되는 것으로 나타났다. 로짓분석을 활용하여 중 고령층이 인지하는 고용안정성이 탈빈곤에 미치는 영향에 대해 분석한 결과, 65세 이상의 고령자보다 조기퇴직이 시작되는 55세 전후에서 경험하는 고용안정성이 가져오는 탈빈곤 효과가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 이는 퇴직 전에 충분한 노후준비를 갖추는 것이 무엇보다 중요함을 의미한다. 이러한 측면에서, 단계적인 정년 연장, 중 고령층에 대한 일자리 대책, 부처간 사업의 통합 및 일관성 확보, 연령 및 특성에 맞춘 맞춤형 고용-복지 연계제도의 도입에 대한 적극적인 정책적 고려가 필요하다.
