The study has suggested a way to minimize safety accidents found in on-site firefighting activity by analyzing firefighters' [investigation report on accidents to on-sie workers]. The study result is described as follows. First, the result of [investigation report on on-site workers] shows that while accidents are found to most frequently have occurred to low-ranking firefighting officers such as Sobangsa and Sobanggyo and firefighting officers with career of less than 5 years, fire-extinguishing activity proved to be the most prone to accidents in the category of activity. Second, analysis performed to identify variance between injury extent and area based on cause of accident shows statistically significant variance. In addition, the result of verifying difference in cause of accident based on category of activity shows significant difference with 'falling over and sliding' being the highly likely cause of accident in fire containment and rescue activities and 'reckless move' being highly likely case of accident in emergency activities. Third, the result of verifying factors behind the extent of injury done to on-site workers shows that when accident is caused by 'incomplete behavior', it was found that the extent of injury is substantial. It was also found that rescue activity is accompanied by substantial extent of injury. As a solution to this, the study suggested ways to establish, extend and operate safety-specific curriculum for entrants, develop materials regarding risk prognosis training and explicate training-related regulations, set up safety management measure for a single squad team, upgrade performance of private protection equipment, institutionalize SOP by on-site activity stage, materialize and activate swift rescue team and increase objectivity and proficiency of safety accident investigation.

Domestic and foreign studies point to human factors as the main cause of unmanned aerial vehicle accidents, and HFACS is introduced as a technique to effectively analyze these human factors. Until now, domestic and foreign cases of analyzing the human factors of unmanned aerial vehicle accidents using HFACS were mainly targeted by military unmanned aerial vehicles, which can be used as an objective cause identification and similar accident prevention tool. In particular, identifying the focus of HFACS application considering the performance and operation conditions of domestic civilian unmanned aerial vehicles is expected to greatly help identify the cause and prevent recurrence in the event of an accident. Based on HFACS version 7.0, this study analyzed the accident investigation report data conducted by Korea Aviation and Railway Accident Investigation Board to identify the focus of HFACS application that can be used for domestic civilian unmanned aircraft accident investigations.

It is very important to evaluate the priority of prevention factors and strategies in order to minimize industrial accident. It provides decisive information for accident prevention and safety management. Therefore, this paper proposes evaluation method of the priority through statistic testing with prevention factors and strategies by the cause analysis of cause and effect models. Especially, this paper uses priority matrix criterion to justify application of rank and objectivity. This paper is based on the results of a questionnaire of workers and managers who are engaged by real manufacturing and construction industries with less than 300 workers in the central region of Korea, where most of the fatal accidents have happened. Finally, the result provides one way to implement safety management for industrial accident prevention.

The purpose of this study is to attempt a systems approach to press injuries using Fault Tree Analysis. Three major techniques were used: Industrial Accident Dynamics (IAD) by which accident analysis can be made, Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) by which quantification of accident analysis can be made, Computerized Algorithm by which minimal cut set to accident can be identified. A survey has been made of ninety two cases of press injuries from seven industrial firms. All cases of the accident are analyzed using the three techniques. According to the analysis, lack of safety knowledge and improper scaffold seem to be the primal cause of accident. Comparisons of the accident causes to actual accident reports (National Institute of Labor Science) demonstrates that the FTA is a powerful tool for industrial accident prevention. On the basis of this result, some countermeasures are discussed.

Natural gas is an explosive fluid and can cause severe human/material damage when buried high-pressure pipeline is failure, and there have been reported cases of considerable human life damage to actual buried pipeline failure. In domestic cases, the length and duration of pipeline operating are short due to rapid growth. Therefore, it is a fact that the establishment of effective accident data is insufficient for the cause of the accident. In order to systematically construct an accident database, the operation history of natural gas pipeline is longer than domestic, and the cause and frequency analysis of recent natural gas pipeline related accidents occurred in overseas major countries with a long pipeline network was conducted. Then, after grasping the trend of occurrence frequency by incident cause, we tried to establish the foundation for securing the stability of the domestic high-pressure gas transport pipeline network.
