  • For many years, fatigue was discounted as a potential cause of or contributor to human error. However, resent accident data and research point to fatigue as a cause of and/or contributor to human error precisely because of its impact on performance. The goal of this study is to analyze and examine of the fatigue factors related to human error. In this study, we carried out the questionnaire sw-vey which concerned with the fatigue factors.

  • It has been estimated that up to $80\%$ of all marine accidents have human elements as a cause. t of these, human elements of crew fatigue is main causes of marine accident. Crew fatigue involves sleep, schedule. workload. off-time. alcohol health and stress. With a ship handling simulator, the effect of alcohol on ship operational performance is studied for each 0.05 and $0.08g\%$ blood alcohol concentrations. A main effect for alcohol was found indicating that ship operational performance was significantly impaired by this alcohol relative to performance in the non-alcohol condition. The results of this research can be applied to minimize marine accidents as basic data.

  • This study aimed to examine the effects of leisure activities on leisure satisfaction and job satisfaction among airline cabin crew, as well as the mediating effect of leisure satisfaction. The context for this research was the sudden increase in air travel demand in 2022 following the COVID-19 economic recovery, which led to cabin crew members experiencing severe stress and fatigue due to excessive scheduling. To achieve this research objective, a self-administered online survey was conducted with 251 cabin crew members from domestic and international airlines, resulting in a total of 224 valid leisure satisfaction and job satisfaction, as well as the mediating effect of leisure satisfaction on the relationship between leisure activity types and job satisfaction. The hypothesis testing results revealed that all types of leisure activities, including family-oriented, friend-oriented, and work-related activities, had a significant positive effect on leisure satisfaction. Family-oriented and work-related leisure activities had a significant positive effect on job satisfaction, and leisure satisfaction had a significant positive effect on job satisfaction. Additionally, the mediation analysis confirmed that leisure satisfaction partially mediated the relationship between family-oriented and work-related leisure activities and job satisfaction, while it fully mediated the relationship between friend-oriented leisure activities and job satisfaction. Therefore, the study offers academic implications based on these findings and proposes strategies for utilizing various types of leisure activities to enhance leisure satisfaction and job satisfaction among airline cabin crew. It also suggests that future research should further validate these findings through methods such as the Delphi technique or Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) analysis to assess the importance and prioritization of these factors among relevant industry stakeholders.

  • In the field of civil aviation in Korea, inappropriate crew resources management(CRM) constantly occurs between captains and first officers during flight. Therefore, the active role of first officers is emphasized in pilot training for CRM, threat & error management(TEM), safety management system(SMS), fatigue risk management system(FRMS), and training in simulators. Thus, it is urgent for captains to change their transformational leadership to emotional leadership, advantages of which include horizontal interpersonal relationship, open-mindedness, leading by example, considerateness, mutual respect, and using informal language. For the direction to improve 'the cockpit culture' in civil aviation, the key idea of the current thesis paper is the influence of captains' transformational and emotional leadership on the emotions of first officers.

The Place Where the Cabin or Flight Crew of International Air Carrier Habitually Carries Out his/her Work - CJEU, 2017. 9. 14., C-168/16, C-169/16 - Sandra Nogueira and Others v. Crewlink Ltd Miguel José Moreno Osacar v. Ryanair (국제항공운송 승무원의 일상적 노무제공지)

  • Crew members engaged in international air transportation provide work in many countries due to the nature of their work. According to the Private International Act, the place where the employee habitually carries out his/her work plays an important role in the determination of the governing law of the international labor contract (Article 28, Paragraph 2) and in the decision of international jurisdiction (Article 28, Paragraphs 3 and 4). The concept of the place where the employee habitually carries out his/her work was proposed by the EU to determine international jurisdiction and governing law. In international aviation law, the legislative purpose of the place where the employee habitually carries out his/her work is different from that of home base, which is a concept introduced for fatigue management of the crew in order to secure the aviation safety; thus the place where the employee habitually carries out his/her work and home base are not the same concept. In order to determine the place where the employee habitually carries out his/her work, following matters should be considered comprehensively; (i) where the crew starts and ends work, (ii) where the aircraft the crew is performing work on is primarily parked, (iii) where the crew is informed of the instructions and organizes his/her work activities, (iv) where the crew is obliged to reside according to the labor contract, (v) where there is an office provided by the employer and available to the crew, (vi) where the crew is obliged to be when he/she is ineligible for the work or subject to discipline. However, since all of the above items are the same as the location of the home base, it is reasonable to consider the home base as the most important factor when deciding on the place where the employee habitually carries out his/her work. In contrast, the state where the aircraft is registered (Article 17 of the Chicago Convention), should not be regarded as a place of where the employee habitually carries out his/her work. In this case, CJEU provided the first judging standard for the concept of the place where the employee engaged in international air transportation habitually carries out his/her work. It is the interpretation of the Brussels regulations which became a model -for the Korean Private International Act,- so it would be helpful to understand the concept of the place where the employee habitually carries out his/her work.

  • The shipboard working environment of coastal ship is very inferior too the ground working environment and it causes the avoidance of shipboard working and the aging of crew. Especially the air pollution and electromagnetic wave in ships causes an occupational disease. hence to reduce the shipboard working fatigue is necessary by the security of the comfortable shipboard working environment and residence environment. in this paper, first we evaluate the shipboard working environment by using the measurement results of the shipboard air polluting and electromagnetic wave in the sea. And we propose the reduction measures of shipboard working fatigue based on the evaluation results of the shipboard working environment.

  • This study is a study to analyze the stress difference of pilots according to the category of aircraft. According to previous studies, pilot stress is affected by several factors such as flight time, fatigue regulation, and operating environment, and it is known that stress also affects cardiac variability. In this paper, we analyzed that there is a difference in stress according to the operating environment through airline pilots and pilots of educational institutions, and then tested the difference in stress between airplane pilots and helicopter pilots. This study differs in that it is a study that has almost no empirical research on pilot fatigue and stress considering the role of flight crew members and operational conditions for each mission. If we expand and verify the sample of the results for the stress difference in the future, it will be a great contribution to practical aviation safety research in connection with the fatigue risk management system in the future.
