Quality Control programs for industrial hygiene laboratory have successfully been operated since the 1st round was initiated in April 1992. Three rounds have been completed. Overall analytical performance of participants was improved through a subsquent round. The first round had a large variation among analytical results of all participants, 26.34%~504.22% of coefficient of variation. But the variation of analytical performance in the 2nd and 3rd rounds decreased to 40.42%~52.55% and 10.74%~20.98%, respectively. The difference of analytical performance among participants was decreased by operation of subsquent round. By distribution of Running Performance Index (RPI), over 50% of participants belongs to Category 3 in the first round. The average percentage of participants assigned to Category 3 in the 2nd and 3rd round was decreased to 37.2%. A definite analytical performance improvement of participants seems to be obtained. "A" and "B" group have more participants assigned to Category 3 than those of "C" group through the distribution of RPI by group divided to similar participant. By the distribution of RPI all participants, the percent of participant being over 200 RPI in the 1st round was 43%~52%, but decreased to 9%~29% and 9%~27%, in the 2nd and 3rd round, respectively. These results mentioned above indicate that the analytical performance of all participants have been improved by subsquent Quality Control Program although newcomers joined and a few participants droped out. But, there are some participants with poor analytical performance. Industrial Health Research Institute (IHRI) will offer service such as education, communication and visitation to them, and improve quality of their analytical performance in the future.

The Korean government had introduced the industrial safety & hygiene consultant(ISHC) system to improve worksite health and safety level by providing specialized industrial safety & hygiene(S&H) services in 1996. Despite of initial hopeful expectation it has been said that this plan might fail to settled down and maintain its purpose. This study was designed to investigate operational issues and problems concerning the ISHC system, that would direct the way of change and future role. Questionnaire were sent to ISHC, professional engineer, agencies for occupational injury prevention, S&H specialist in the corporation nationwide and totally 256 people responded to in having 62.7% of response rate. The result of this study were as follows; 1. One hundred and forty two cases of safety assessment and 27 cases of process safety reports were the six years' results since 1996 the ISHC program had first been introduced. This results showed that injury prevention activities of ISHC had been stagnant. 2. The 78.8% of respondents had negative opinion about injury prevention activities of ISHC program. 3. The operational problems of ISHC were lack of understanding of company about ISHC, low systematization of work items, duty overlapping with agencies for occupational injury prevention, low support by government. in order. 4. It was suggested that abolition of ISHC and promotion of professional engineer system should be considered. 5.

This study was conducted to evaluate accuracy and precision of reference values used for quality control of the Korean industrial hygiene laboratory for three rounds. Factors affecting on accuracy and precision, including analytical procedures, were investigated. The results are summarized as follows. 1. Pooled relative standard deviation of reference values analyzed by reference laboratories was 2.01-5.91%, and that by both reference laboratories and participated laboratories was 3.18-6.63%. Better results were obtained when results of reference laboratories were employed. 2. Significant relationship was indicated between analytical precision and concentration of materials in samples. Variation increased by decreasing sample concentration. 3. Recoveries of lead and cadmium were about 98.6% and 99.8% respectively. There was a significant difference between lead values with and without recovery correction. 4. Organic solvent results corrected by desorption efficiency only and those corrected by Both internal standards and desorption efficiency were more accurate than those uncorrected. But, the latter was the best.

The government developed National Competency Standards and expands field friendly education for innovation of industrial field based education training. NCS is the national level of standards that the government systemized knowledge, skills and attitudes required to work in industrial fields by each industry and each level. This study was intended to research NCS education contents of an introduction of dental hygienics, which is a basic major subject among subjects of dental hygiene course, to present learning goals accordingly, and to be used as a basic resource of NCS field oriented classes of dental hygienists through the comparison before and after. In case of the dental hygiene course, dental hygienists are performing important core tasks as clinicians at dental offices. Therefore, such comprehensive and professional performance abilities as scaling, oral prophylaxis and oral health education are required at the fields. The education process and education contents for this should be researched continuously.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to investigate the oral health impact profile (OHIP) in the industrial accident injury patients, and the effect of subjective perception and attitude of oral health on the oral health-related quality of life in industrial injury patients. Methods : A self-reported questionnaire was filled out by 496 industrial accident injury patients from October 29 to November 30, 2013. Data were analyzed using SPSS ver 20.0 program for chi-square test, t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe test, and Pearson's correlation coefficient. Results : The OHIP-14 was higher oral health-related quality of life in young people, women, highly educated persons, and those having high income and frequent scaling service. The subjective perception and attitude of oral health was closely correlated to the OHIP-14. The factors influencing on the oral health-related quality of life were the subjective perception and attitude toward oral health. Conclusions : It is necessary to emphasize the oral health promotion program for industrial injury patients. The government should pay more attention to the policy for the improvement of the oral health of industrial accident injury patients in the future.

This study was designed to analyze the relationship between food hygiene cognition, food hygiene attitude and personal hygiene control of high school students using a structural equation model. For verification analysis, a total of 1,214 individuals (excluding un-collected and insufficient questionnaires) were analyzed by distributing 30 questionnaires per grade at 16 high schools in Chungcheongnam do from July 16 to October 15, 2015. The factorial capacities showed how well each measurement parameter reflected a potential variable (food hygiene cognition, food hygiene attitude and personal hygiene control) based on a significance of 0.001. This can be interpreted that each individual measurement variable reflects the potential. In addition, correlations among potential variables have all been shown to be static at a significance of 0.01. Evaluation of the pathway factors of the structural model from food hygiene cognition to food hygiene attitude (${\beta}=0.753$) and from food hygiene attitude to personal hygiene control (${\beta}=0.840$) revealed significant static effects. Overall, the results showed that food hygiene cognition affects food hygiene attitude, which subsequently affects personal hygiene control. The results of this study suggest that food hygiene cognition does not directly enhance personal hygiene control, but that it can improve food hygiene attitude, which can in turn increase personal hygiene control.
