Objectives: To investigate the trends of industrial injuries among long-term health care workers in Korea Methods: T7866 injuries were selected from the total industrial injuries approved by the Industrial Accident Compensation Insurance Act(Occupational Safety and Health Act) among long-term health care workers between 2007 and 2016 in Korea. We analyzied the trends of industrial injuries according to work process, occurrence type, and causes. Results: The industrial injuries among long-term health care workers increased since 2012. The mostly occurred area for industrial injuries were low back areas, which is related that the most serious industrial injuries occurred when the one long-term healthcare worker lift manually the recipient, from bed(ondol, Korean floor heating system) to a wheelchair, bed to bath bed, and wheelchair to bath chair. In addition to this, lack of workforce, increased work intensity due to overwork contributed the increasing of occupational injury. Conclusions: This study suggests that the main causes of industrial injuries were Lack of facilities and equipment for small private long-term care institutions, The physical load that goes into lifting the recipient directly, work intensity such as excessive workload and increased work speed. We suggest that the social publicization of long-term care service for the elderly, avoiding ways to lift recipients directly, introducing lifting machines as well as improving working methods, and reducing the workload of caregivers are required.

The total number of Korean restaurants using delivery applications has substantially increased from 7.6% in 2018 to 11.2% in 2019. In 2020, the gross sales in the food delivery service market reached approximately 17 trillion won; this amount is virtually six times that in 2017 (i.e., 2 trillion won). Meanwhile, the annual average death toll of motorcycle riders increased by 3.5%, whereas the number of deaths due to other traffic accidents decreased by 8.2%. Consequently, the foregoing has become a critical social problem. Despite the continuing increase in the number of delivery riders due to the rapid expansion of the delivery industry, no appropriate safety management system has been established. Moreover, the government is experiencing difficulties in assessing the exact situation because of the absence of competent authority. In this study, fundamental data on the characteristics of delivery work and motorcycle accidents were collected through surveys and interviews; then, the influencing factors of traffic accidents were analyzed. Different influencing factors were identified: work experience as a rider; number of deliveries; whether to accept delivery requests in transit; manner of accepting delivery requests; and traffic law violations, such as speeding (for faster delivery) and running a red light. Because the motorcycle delivery industry has a relatively low job-entry barrier (i.e., special qualifications are not required), the riding skills of riders must be improved, and delivery companies must be technically developed to achieve a safe working environment. The results of this study can be utilized as fundamental data for system development or structural improvement of the delivery industry.

자동차의 충돌해석은 다양한 형태로 구성되며, 충돌 중 차량에 작용되는 속도변화는 차량 간의 충돌정도나 차량 내에 탑승한 승객의 안전도를 평가하는 매우 중요한 요소로 활용된다. 이로 인해 충돌해석 시뮬레이션 프로그램을 활용한 속도변화의 결과치를 해석하는 방법들이 필요하게 된다. 그러나 다양한 충돌해석 시뮬레이션이 보급됨으로 인해 각 프로그램에 대한 신뢰성 평가가 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 전혀 다른 물리적 접근방식을 채택하는 충돌해석 프로그램인 EDSMAC과 PC-CRASH프로그램을 활용하여 초기 입력조건 중 차량의 무게, 무게중심, 구름저항, 강성계수, 제동력 등 여러 충돌인자들을 일정한 범위 내에서 값을 변화시키면서 1차원 정면 및 2차원 측면직각충돌 실험을 수행하였다. 그리고 충돌인자들이 출력결과 값인 충돌 중 속도변화에 미치는 영향에 대해 알아보았다. 본 연구 결과, 두 시뮬레이션 프로그램 모두 차량의 무게, 무게중심, 제동력에 대해 동일한 속도변화의 패턴을 보였다. 차량의 강성계수는 EDSMAC에만 반응하였으며, 구름저항계수는 속도변화에 별다른 영향을 미치지 못하였다. 그러나 속도변화의 값에 대해서는 다소 상대적인 차이를 나타내었는데, 이는 각 시뮬레이션 프로그램에 고정된 물성치 값이 그대로 적용됨으로 인한 반응의 결과로 해석된다. 따라서 시뮬레이션 프로그램의 고정 값을 고려한 속도분석으로 교통사고 충돌해석에 대한 신뢰성을 향상시켜야 할 것이다.

Artificial Neural Networks that enabled Artificial Intelligence are being used in many fields. However, the application to mechanical structures has several problems and research is incomplete. One of the problems is that it is difficult to secure a large amount of data necessary for learning Artificial Neural Networks. In particular, it is important to detect and recognize external forces and forces for safety working and accident prevention of mechanical structures. This study examined the possibility by applying the Current Neural Network of Artificial Neural Networks to detect and recognize the load on the machine. Tens of thousands of data are required for general learning of Recurrent Neural Networks, and to secure large amounts of data, this paper derives load data from ANSYS structural analysis results and applies a stacked auto-encoder technique to secure the amount of data that can be learned. The usefulness of Stacked Auto-Encoder data was examined by comparing Stacked Auto-Encoder data and ANSYS data. In addition, in order to improve the accuracy of detection and recognition of load data with a Recurrent Neural Network, the optimal conditions are proposed by investigating the effects of related functions.

The purpose of this paper was to review the problems relating to Korea's occupational health services and suggest ways to improve them. Korea can be classified as a welfare state type of conservative corporatism partially interwoven with liberalism. While experiencing compressed economic growth, the economic sectors of developed (excess areas) and developing (deficient areas) countries are interwoven. Therefore, it is necessary to perfect conservative corporatism along with a complementary reinforcement of liberal contents and to apply a multilayered approach focusing on complementing the deficient areas. It is essential to form a national representative indicator related to occupational health, and a strategy for selection and concentration is needed. The proposed central indicator is the occupational health coverage rate (OHCR), which is the number of workers who have applied for mandatory occupational health services under the Occupational Safety and Health Act in the numerator with the total working population in the denominator. This paper proposes ways to raise the OHCR, which is currently at the level of 25%-40%, to 70%-80%, which is the level of Japan, Germany, and France. To achieve this target, it is necessary to focus on small businesses and vulnerable workers. This is an area of market failure and requires the active input of community-oriented public resources. For access to larger workplaces, the marketability of services should be strengthened and personal intervention using digital health resources should be actively attempted. Taking a national perspective, work environment improvement committees with tripartite (labor, management, and government) participation for improvement of the working environment need to be established at the center and in the regions. Through this, prevention funds linked to industrial accident compensation and prevention could be used efficiently. A national chemical substance management system must be established to monitor the health of workers and the general public.
