The study was conducted to investigate the influences of food service employees' job burnout, job engagement, and workplace safety perception on their job satisfaction. A survey was administered on 589 school food service employees in Gyeongbuk from December 5, 2005 to February 18, 2006. The final response rate was 71% (N= 416); the data were analyzed using SPSS Windows (ver. 12.0). A majority of the respondents were females (99.0%) and 40 years old or older (75.3%); 84% were temporary contact-based or irregular workers. Among the job burnout dimensions, exhaustion ($2.98{\pm}0.59$) was rated higher than cynicism ($2.33{\pm}0.54$), while professional efficacy level ($3.61{\pm}0.47$) was relatively high. In terms of job engagement, the means of absorption ($3.67{\pm}0.49$) and dedication ($3.65{\pm}0.52$) were higher than that of vigor ($3.22{\pm}0.46$). A systematic environmental level ($3.15{\pm}0.58$) was lower than safety knowledge level ($3.63{\pm}0.49$) among the workplace safety statistics, whereas the anxiety level ($3.25{\pm}0.74$) was relatively high. The food service staff were more satisfied with 'supervisors' and 'co-workers' than with 'pay' and 'promotion'. A hierarchial regression analysis revealed that dedication, absorption, systematic environment, and safety knowledge were significant factors to increase job satisfaction and exhaustion which significantly decreased their job satisfaction.

본 연구에서는 학교급식에서 친환경 급식의 날을 운영하는 초등학교와 중학교, 운영하지 않는 초등학교와 중학교 학생의 친환경 농산물에 대한 인식과 학교급식 만족도를 조사하여 친환경 급식의 날 운영 특성과 문제점을 파악하고 학교급식의 질과 만족도 향상에 기여할 수 있는 기초자료를 제시하고자 실시하였다. 친환경 급식의 날을 운영하는 초 중학생의 친환경 농산물에 대한 인식에서 운영교 학생은 친환경 농산물이란 유기농산물이라고 답한 비율이 높은 반면, 비운영교 학생은 무농약 농산물이라고 답한 비율이 높았다. 친환경 농산물을 선택하는 방법은 초 중학생 모두 품질인증 표시를 보고 구분한다는 응답이 가장 높았다. 가정에서 친환경 농산물을 사용하는 빈도는 초등학생의 경우 친환경 급식의 날 운영교에서 매일 사용한다는 응답이 42.1%로 비운영교의 25.0%보다 유의하게 높았다(p<0.01). 학생의 친환경 급식의 날 운영에 따른 급식만족도는 친환경 급식의 날을 운영하는 초등학교와 중학교가 운영하지 않는 학교에 비해 유의적으로 높게 나타났다(p<0.05). 이상의 연구결과를 종합할 때 친환경 급식의 날을 정기적으로 운영하는 초등학교와 중학교의 학생들의 학교급식 만족도가 비운영교의 학생에 비하여 높았다. 앞으로 학교급식에서 학생들의 기호를 고려한 메뉴 개발 및 조리법의 다양화 등으로 우수하고 안전한 친환경 농산물의 사용을 보다 폭넓게 확대하는 방안에 대한 노력이 이루어져야 할 것이다.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to compare student consumption of school meals by school level, to identify the influencing factors of school meal consumption, and to assess improvement needs of school food service among students. SUBJECTS/METHODS: A total of 1,441 elementary, middle, and high school students attending 58 schools in Gyeonggi-do, South Korea participated in the survey in 2015. A questionnaire and informed consent forms for students and legal guardians were sent home and completed responses were returned to the researcher. RESULTS: Approximately 58% of the students perceived the portion sizes of school meals as appropriate and 76.1% consumed almost all or all of the meals served. More elementary and middle school students than high school students consumed almost all or all of the meals (P < 0.001). A regression analysis revealed that the students with a higher dietary behavior score (P < 0.001), higher satisfaction with food service (P < 0.001), a higher environmental protection practice score (P < 0.05), and more positive attitudes toward school meals (P < 0.01) consumed significantly more meals. The provision of foods that taste good and reflecting student opinions on menus were the most important factors for increasing school meal consumption. CONCLUSIONS: To increase consumption of school meals, food service staff should provide students with quality meals and engage students in school food service. Nutrition education that emphasizes healthy eating behaviors and cafeteria environment modification that applies strategies based on behavioral economics can encourage students to consume more school meals.
