In this study the main elements which can be commonly adopted to every kind of business are selected through the research, case-study, benchmarking common items of a direct or indirect loss cost. As a result of the development of a program for evaluating loss cost a case or accumulated data can be easily managed through estimating the direct and indirect loss cost as tell as the ratio between directs and indirect cost. The program is fit to case-study and we are compared direct cost with indirect cost. Automatically, this program showed ratio between directs and indirect cost for style, scale of accident The person in charge of safety and hygiene can have better chances to get into management also the owner or the CEO can recognize the importance of management of safety and hygiene. So this can guide the company to invest in a prevention of disaster and to adopt a safety and hygiene management promote the prevention activity of a company, and finally decrease the accident rate in the country.

Construction projects account for a significant proportion of workplace hazards globally. While construction cost reports typically emphasize direct accident costs such as treatment expenses, nursing care costs, or disability benefits, indirect factors like work interruption loss costs or consolation costs are frequently overlooked, because it is relatively difficult to estimate those factors in advance. Recognizing and accurately estimating the indirect costs factors associated with construction accidents would not only shed light on the monetary impact these incidents have on overall project costs but also would enable to estimate the total accident cost in advance. The current study seeks to identify factors influencing indirect costs, which ultimately govern the total accident cost, through a data mining approach. A survey was conducted in domestic construction companies, resulting in a dataset of 1038 accident records collected from construction sites. First, statistical analysis was performed to uncover characteristics and patterns of factors affecting construction accident costs from both direct and indirect perspectives. Later, this study proposes four distinct machine learning (ML) models, comparing their performances in predicting the total accident cost (including indirect costs) in advance. Additionally, this research sheds light on an important issue in construction data analysis, which is the scarcity of data in a particular class, by applying random oversampling and random undersampling techniques. The suggested framework can assist practitioners and management in estimating construction accident costs and identifying the relevant attributes that impact accidents at the construction site for future practices.

Estimation of accident cost is a sound and great safety indicator on determining accurate occupational safety and health prevention. Just like in Korea, Heinrich ratio analysis of (1:4) between direct and indirect costs has been become widely used in safety management because of its simplicity. In this study four major categories of uninsured (indirect) cost items and 18 sub-categories of uninsured (indirect) cost items were identified. To determine and validate the importance and necessity of the results of a literature review an expert or professional surveyed had been analyses using the SPSS 18.0, where in the participants whose expertize is in the field of compensation and safety. Based on the results of survey all participants all uninsured (indirect) cost items classified was important and necessary when accidents occurred. Despite recognition of expert on the classification of uninsured (indirect) cost items, it is quite difficult to make generalization for all kind of costs in occupational accident case due to different nature of business for each industry.

Estimation of accident costs would set a sound criterion on which invest judgement for work improvement would be decided. Unfortunately, however, the professional agency and most companies in Korea still adopt the conventional cost estimation method based on Heinrich's theory would not be applicable any more since it was developed about a century ago. This research was carried out to confirm the validity of conventional accident cost estimation method. With 110 accident cases occurred in an autoglass manufacturing plant for last 7 years, post-accident treatment procedure was simplified as a model with several phases, and practical costs were analyzed case by case. The results showed that, as expected, the company should the largest portion of loss due to accidents, and that mean indirect cost were 10.10(${\pm}20.70$) times as much as direct cost estimated by conventional method. Therefore, finally, accident types and items influenced much on accidents costs were analyzed and discussed.

Although prior researches have been investigated the impact of insured cost(direct cost) on employers and employees, little work has attempted to categorize the items of unsecured cost(indirect cost) by accidents. On this basis, the goal of this study was to achieve a better understanding of the nature of accident cost of unsecured cost. Specifically, this study aimed to categorize the unsecured cost items according to the domestic industry circumstances and use these results for a basis of other accident cost related studies. The results of this study are as follows: (1) accident development steps were categorized as twelve items for improved management according to each step of accident development (2) the points of occurrence and termination of the unsecured cost were identified for the improved management according to each step of accident development and (3) characteristics of each item in unsecured cost were studied and identified for a better control of accident costs. These results provide a basis for further researches on the unsecured cost.

In Korea, the method of assessing uninsured costs is not adopted in a direct way, but in an indirect way on the basis of the insured cost. From this method, the cost of accidents can be approximately calculated, but accurate calculation of uninsured costs is not easy. Therefore, a better method of assessing uninsured costs caused by industrial accidents is necessary. In this study, the system program and database for assessing uninsured costs from industrial accidents were developed on the basis of the results of previous studies. This program and database could quantitatively assess uninsured costs more accurately and quickly than other studies. This system would contribute to the efficient analysis of industrial accident costs.

Objectives : This study was conducted to estimate the socioeconomic cost of injuries in South Korea. Methods : We matched claims data from national health insurance, automobile insurance and industrial accident compensation insurance(IACI), and mortality data obtained from the national statistical office from 2001 to 2003 by patients unique identifier. Socioeconomic cost included both direct cost and indirect cost: the direct cost was injury-related medical expenditure and the indirect cost included loss of productivity due to healthcare utilization and premature death. Results : The socioeconomic cost of injuries in Korea was approximately 1.9% of the GDP from 2001 to 2003. That is, 12.1 trillion KRW(Korean Won) in 2001, 12.3 trillion KRW in 2002, and 13.7 trillion KRW in 2003. In 2003, direct medical costs were 24.6%(3.4 trillion KRW), the costs for loss of productivity by healthcare utilization were 13.0%(1.8 trillion KRW), and the costs for loss of productivity by premature death were 62.4%(8.6 trillion KRW). Conclusions : In this study, the socioeconomic cost of injuries in Korea between 2001 and 2003 was estimated by using not only health insurance claims data, but also automobile insurance, IACI claims and mortality data. We conclude that social efforts are required to reduce the socioeconomic cost of injuries in Korea, which represented approximately 1.9% of the GDP for the time period specified.

본 연구는 도로교통사고 비용의 추계에 있어 미국, 일본, 영국 등 일부선진국에서 추계항목에 포함된 고용주 비용(미국의 고용주 비용, 일본의 사업주체의 비용, 영국의 인간적 비용)의 도입 필요성을 검토하고, 이를 저감시키기 위한 대책마련을 진행하였다. 이를 위해, 교통사고 발생 시 상대적으로 관심권 밖에 위치한 교통사고 가해자의 PTSD (Posttraumatic Stress Disorder) 심각성과 현황을 파악하고, 개인별 특성이 반영된 PTSD 심각도 수준별 대책을 마련하였다. 그 결과를 정리하면, 첫째, 교통사고 가해자를 대상으로 추정만 해 오던 교통사고 PTSD 현황과 심각성을 설문조사를 통해 파악할 수 있었다. 둘째, PTSD 특성별 유 무에 따른 판별분석모형을 구축하였는바, 판별식의 변수로는 '사고로 인한 불면증', '사고 상황 또는 유사 상황에서 운전 중 심리적 위축'이 변수로 선정되었다. 셋째, PTSD의 심각도를 추정할 수 있는 순서형 프로빗 모형 구축 결과, 주요변수는 '최대피해자 심각도', '사고 상황 악몽', '불면증 경험', '운전 중 위축', '성별', '주요 운전 지역'으로 나타났으며, 실제 추정치가 실제 응답치에 근접함을 확인할 수 있었다. 넷째, 성별, 지역별 특성이 반영된 PTSD 심각도별로 선호하는 치료방법을 제시할 수 있었다. 이렇게 분석된 결과를 통해 교통사고 가해자의 사회 업무 복귀를 앞당기고 작업능률의 저하와 같은 피해를 최소한으로 저감 시킬 수 있는 방법을 제시할 수 있었으며, 이는 결국 이들 운전자들이 몸담고 있는 직장의 고용주에게 발생할 수 있는 직 간접적인 피해를 최소한으로 줄일 수 있을 것이라 사료된다.
