The government separated and established the industrial safety and health law from the Labor Standard law since 1981 to promote the labor's working environment and to improve the conditions of laborers. The government made a lot of effort to discharge the industrial safety and health law by continuous revision of the law thereafter. it is, however, difficult to establish clear-cut lines of authority and responsibility due to the fact that the substantial application of the industrial safety and health law is adapted by enterprise's autonomous management. There are frequent industrial disasters on the small and medium enterprises which have financial difficulty and it means this causes much more social cost. Finally, for the improvement of laborer's safety, health and working environment in the small and medium enterprises we need to raise the effectiveness of the industrial safety and health law through enhancing a government-office's administration and surveillance with the changing mind of a business proprietor. On this paper, we research on the actual condition of the administration, inspection and regulation of safety and health by means of the industrial safety and health law. Thereafter we analyze how much the Korea Occupational Safety & Health Agency and vicarious businesses of safety & health management help. we used the survey method to gather data from 380 laborers directly and analysed the data by SPSS v17.0.

Electronic commerce is becoming a significant hub for sourcing products/services which helps organizations to connect with potential customers and gain competitive advantages, though little empirical work focuses on small businesses operating in developing countries to date. Increasingly, companies are looking to utilize social media to connect with stakeholders and pursue several benefits. This study aims to investigate the technological, organizational, and environmental (TOE) factors that influence small- and medium-sized enterprises' (SMEs) social media (SM) adoption in developing countries. This study used a closed-ended questionnaire to collect data from randomly-selected respondents (owners, executives, and managers) from SMEs in Pakistan. SMART PLS version 3.2.8 was used for path analysis of 316 responses and for structural equation modeling. The research findings include the direct influence of TOE factors (relative advantage, interactivity, visibility, top management support, and institutional pressure) on SMEs' SM adoption, and in turn SM adoption also has a positive influence on SMEs performance. Moreover, the coefficient of determination of the study showed that 77.7% of the variation in SM adoption occurs because of TOE factors and 29.8% variation in SMEs occurred because of SM adoption. This paper has implications for practitioners and scholars interested in exploring the SM adoption and usage by SMEs.

Increasing uncertainties in the technological innovation environment and increasing technology competition also present new challenges in terms of industrial technology security. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to identify the direction of policy change necessary for the improvement of related policies in the future by examining the importance and implementation of the government's industrial technology security support policies for small and medium-sized enterprises engaged in industrial technology innovation activities. As a result of the analysis, first of all, small and medium-sized enterprises that responded to the government's industrial technology security support policy were perceived to be less performing than the importance of the program. These results can be said to mean that selective budget expansion for related policy programs may be necessary, along with efforts to improve the quality of each program. Second, an analysis of the differences in group recognition between new technology certification firms and industrial technology verification(certification) companies showed that significant differences exist between groups for the program. These results suggest that more effective operation of the relevant policies may require policy enforcement in consideration of the level of security and will of each company in industrial technology, as much as the quantitative characteristics of the entity. This study is meaningful in providing the necessary policy directional basic information for the design and execution of more specific and effective industrial technology security policies by presenting empirical research results that domestic small and medium-sized enterprises are aware of about the government's industrial technology security policies.

In recent years, in response to rapid technological change, technology planning activities are important for companies to cope with technological competition. However, Small and Medium Enterprises(SMEs) lack the resources and competence to establish their own technology roadmaps. Therefore, government-led roadmaps for SMEs have been proposed to support the R&D direction and R&D capabilities of SMEs. However, SMEs R&D policies are still not well linked with technology roadmaps and R&D programs. In other words, the size of R&D for SMEs is determined according to demand of SMEs regardless of strategic technology roadmap. In this study, we propose a investment prioritization model based on a technology road map to unify R&D investment policy. Using the decision model designed to prioritize strategic technology investments in the SME strategy roadmap, we conduct empirical analysis of strategic technologies in the advanced convergence and green manufacturing. AHP analysis was conducted after questionnaires on the importance of strategic technology and the importance of influential factors to 46 experts such as expert of research institutes and support organizations.
