This study aims to improve the family friendly certification system by analyzing the actual experience of family friendly certified companies with the certification's incentives and their demand for new incentives. We analyzed 2018 survey data of family friendly certified company incentives and interviewed representatives from 9 family friendly certified companies. First, the use of incentives differs according to the level of corporate classification, number of employees, industry, certification continuation training, and incentive impact. Current family friendly certification incentives indicate that the utilization rate of incentives is high when small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) with less than 300 employees have newly received family friendly certification. Second, the use of the certification mark significantly differs by industry, certification duration, and incentive impact. Interviews with the companies' family friendly certification managers revealed that the incentives that companies use mainly are the Public Procurement Service bid points and priority immigration service. Large corporations hope for strong incentives, such as the National Tax Service's deferred tax investigation, interest rate cuts for bank loans, and corporate tax cuts. Lastly, the family friendly certification mark is a representative incentive used by 60% of family friendly certified companies. For the qualitative growth and stabilization of the family friendly certification system, the family friendly certification mark should be improved to become a more attractive incentive.

A law facilitating a family-friendly social environment was legislated in December 2007. According to the law, projects for facilitating a family-friendly social environment consisted of a family-friendly working environment, a community environment, and the promotion of a family-friendly culture. There has been much progress in developing a family-friendly working environment through projects such as those advocating for flexible work hours, an employee support system, and child care and a family care support system. However, in terms of a family-friendly community environment project, there was no noticeable advancement. Hence, this study was conducted to find ways to vitalize the family-friendly village project in terms of the family-friendly community environment project. The major findings of this study were as follows: A family-friendly village could be structured on the three axes of time, space, and relation. The model of the family-friendly village project consists of the following three steps: motivation, systematization, and participating & practicing. In the motivation step, integration, community, and sustainability were needed as basic ideologies for a family-friendly village. In the systematization step, providing systematic educational systems for residents taking on leadership and activist roles was stressed. In the participating & practicing step, many ways to facilitate residents' social relationships were suggested: starting the project from matters of common interests, making the resolution of families' problems a communal task of the residents, accepting the opinions of various groups associated with the matter, and taking a differentiated project process according to the geographic, socio-economic, and demographic characteristics of the groups. It is strongly suggested that the family-friendly village should be taken as a common functional scheme in everyone of eight livable village models because a key factor in a family-friendly village, family care, serves an essential function in any livable village model.

This study was carried out to explore the actual condition of family-friendly education of corporations and organizations supporting them for the purpose of activating the family-friendly certification system. The researches on the family-friendly education of corporations or related organizations have not become an object of attention, although the policies of family-friendly corporations have been the major concern of researchers who have conducted studies on the balancing between work and family. For the first time, this study investigated the family-friendly education programs of corporations and organizations supporting them. In addition to this work, interviews with laborers were performed to learn the actual participation in the education. The results showed that even corporations selected as excellent corporations by the government scarcely provided family-friendly educations and few laborers participated in them. The most educations provided by corporations were for the improvement of work ability or job training. Education for family concentrated only on the role of the father. The focus of educations supporting corporations was biased to the view of corporation or family, not balanced between the two. So it was suggested that researchers should pay attention to developing diverse education programs encompassing the whole stages of life cycle and the balancing between corporation and family.

본 연구는 중소규모 기업이 밀집해 있는 지역에 소재한 중소규모 기업 대표 및 인사담당자를 대상으로 가족친화경영 및 가족친화인증에 대한 인식을 탐색하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 2017년 10월부터 11월까지 기업 대표 및 인사담당자 6인을 대상으로 초점집단면접을 실시하였다. 본 연구결과 연구참여자들이 속한 기업 중 가족친화인증을 받은 기업은 없었으나, 모든 기업에서 출산전후휴가, 육아휴직, 근로시간 단축 등 다양한 가족친화제도를 운영하고 있었다. 또한 중소규모 기업에서도 가족친화경영의 필요성을 인식하고 있었으나 소규모 기업의 특수성, 제도 확대에 따른 부담, 제도 도입의 복잡성 등과 같은 가족친화경영 및 가족친화제도 도입에 따른 어려움을 경험하고 있었다. 각 기업의 상황에 따라 가족친화 인증 참여 의지는 다르게 나타났으나, 연구참여자들은 가족친화경영의 필요성을 인지함에 따라 CEO 교육 확대, 가족친화제도 도입에 대한 사회적 분위기 조성, 홍보 확대 및 제도의 간소화 등을 중소규모 기업의 가족친화경영 및 가족친화인증 참여 확대 방안으로 이야기하였다. 본 연구 결과는 향후 중소규모 기업의 가족친화경영 및 가족친화인증 참여를 확산하기 위한 정책 마련에 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
