  • In this study, delivery workers were regarded as workers and industrial accident and serious accident prevention were studied. As a result of the study, first, it was confirmed that awareness of safety guidelines has an effect on disaster prevention and is related to reducing serious accidents. Second, among the forms of organizational culture, rational culture was shown to have a positive impact on serious accidents. Third, the moderating effect of organizational culture Rational culture, a sub-concept, was found to have a moderating effect on serious accidents. Fourth, according to the opinions of workers for disaster prevention of delivery workers, it was classified into policy part, environmental part, and worker's duty part, and the necessity of strengthening safety education and strong regulation was suggested in the policy part.

  • Purpose: This study aims to investigate and analyze the status, form and the cause of accidents that occur in theme parks. Method: For the study, we investigated safety accidents of overseas theme parks that were reported to the media using newspaper search program. It also analyzed 710 safety accidents that were collected by the Korea Consumer Agency (KCA), Korea Association of Amusement Parks & Attraction (KAAPA) etc. Results: Overseas theme parks reported by the media have been occurred 40 to 60 times every year. According to the survey data alone, there are 87 safety accidents annually in domestic theme parks, and there are certain patterns in the types of accidents and injuries.

  • Major accidents such as typhoon, tsunami, and chemical accidents have been continuously occurred. In this environment, Technical Commitment (TC) related to disaster management part in the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) concentrates their efforts to enact the business continuous management in emergency situation for international standard. As a result of TC223, four international standards are enacted in 2011, 2012. In the Korean industrial standard, two international standard (ISO22300, ISO22301) out of four standards were enacted in 2012. This study analyzes a recent trend and proposes a method activating of international societal security standard for chemical accidents. Disaster certificate system for developing disaster safety industry is suggested. We hope each related organization could develop our disaster safety management policy and research based on this study.

  • Automobile was first introduced in 1903 in South Korea, the masses of the car was carried out rapidly compared to other countries. However, many people were killed in a traffic accidents and economic loss was occurred due to the spread of the automobile. In South Korea, 2012, traffic accident occurred 223,656 times, 5,392 fatality, 344,565 injured people. In the last five years, about 224,000 accidents per year were occurring. In other words, 610 traffic accidents occur and about 15 people pass away in one day. In addition, the proportion of traffic accidents is first place in the OECD countries and it is very high in the world. Understand occurrence tendency of traffic accident, accident frequency rate of the driver who drives more than 10 years was higher than the novice driver. In addition, as a result of examining the cause of the traffic accident, breach of safe driving obligation appears highest case (125,391 times), and followed by signal violation, break safety distance. Therefore, the majority of traffic accidents occurred by the lack of safety awareness of the driver. In this study, prevent the loss of human life and property in traffic disaster, by establish disaster prevention measures that investigated by questionnaire survey and statistical data of the state of consciousness and driving posture in response to the driving history of the driver.

  • Purpose: It is intended to prevent similar and similar disasters in advance by classifying the types of industrial accidents by type of distribution center and establishing countermeasures. Method: Development of improvement measures by analyzing in detail the types of occurrences of each type of 5 years in the distribution center. Result: Through the analysis of industrial accidents that occurred in the distribution center, it was possible to find ways to reduce disasters. Conclusion: It is expected to help reduce the disaster rate of the distriution center by presenting a disaster reduction plan through the analysis of industrial accidents in the distribution center.

  • This paper aims to find out characteristics of railroad weather-related accidents and incidents and to proposes the plan of railroad disaster prevention according to the precipitation. For this, we make the database about the railroad weather-related accidents and incidents and analysis the relationship between the hourly and cumulative precipitation and railroad accidents. The results are as follows; The weather events that have the most occurrence frequency of railroad weather-related accidents and incidents is a rainfall of the precipitation and then the cause of that was the falling rocks and the collapsed roadbed. The rainfall patterns of collapsed roadbed were classified into 4 groups. When the variation of hourly rainfall is 10/15 mm/hr over, we need to consider the caution/stop of train operation and a speed limit, respectively.

  • As the size of construction projects has become larger in recent years, the nature of the disaster safety factors along with the progress of construction is also becoming more complex and diversified. Accordingly, the introduction of computerized construction, new technologies, and new construction methods has resulted in a variety of risk factors in the process and operations, and many new safety construction methods are being tried. Since the construction industry has variable working environments and constantly changes working methods and components depending on the rate of progress, workers at construction sites are always exposed to risk depending on the specific circumstances of the construction industry. This study attempts to collect and analyze major accident cases generated by major accident construction projects as a result of progress in construction work, and to derive the major causes and causes for each safety management activity that affect safety accidents.

  • Purpose: The construction industry is a complex mechanism in which multiple processes are carried out at the same time, and the frequency and severity of accidents account for a higher proportion than other industries, and the accident fatality rate also accounts for more than 50% of all industries. In order to reduce such accidents, the government's disaster investigation method analyzes the limitations from the system safety point of view and proposes improvement plans. Method: The main contents of the government's serious accident investigation were identified, and the effectiveness/adequacy was analyzed from the system safety point of view. Result: Disaster investigation and analysis techniques tailored to violations and compliance were limited in providing fundamental solutions, and alternatives for accident prevention were possible for each component of the system when safety constraints, controls, and hierarchical interactions were combined. Conclusion: When combining the disaster investigation and analysis method from the current accident analysis method from the perspective of system safety, it is possible to identify the problems of interaction by class and communication process, so it is possible to suggest alternatives to prevent accidents from an integrated perspective.

  • Since the hydrofluoric acid spill accident in Gumi in 2012, the current situation has continued to suffer from makeshift responses or feeble national system maintenance in preparing real countermeasures against chemical accidents, regardless of their repeated occurrence and seriousness. Industrial chemical accidents have an enormous ripple effect on the whole country and society. The purpose of this study is to propose ways of establishing directions for the national disaster management system against repeated occurrence of chemical accidents. To achieve this goal, the present study proposed improvement measures of response system for industrial chemical accident through the analysis of the current response system and structural causes of disaster control failure for chemical accidents.
