Purpose: To investigate the actual conditions of health care management in child day care centers and parents needs for a Center-based Child Care Health Program. Methods: Study design was cross-sectional descriptive study. 937 parents from 33 day care centers in Seoul completed a structured questionnaire. Results: 73.0% of the parents experienced sick events with their child at least once or more every 1-3months. These events resulted in 35.2% of the parents having to leave work early or to be absent from their jobs. 30.4% were asked to drive a sick child from the child day care centers to their home. Most parents (76.7%) agreed on the need for a Center-based Child Care Health Program (CCCHP), and expected general health & illness management, and growth & development evaluation from the CCCHP. Conclusion: These results show that there is a great demand for Center-based Child Care Health Program. They suggest that there is an urgent need to develop CCCHPs to promote children's health and to support parents. Also the results of this study can be utilized as a basis for the establishment of a childcare policy in Korea.

RBAC은 시스템 자원의 안전한 관리를 위한 접근 통제 메커니즘이며 네트워크에서 보안 관리를 위한 비용과 복잡성을 감소 시켜주기 때문에 특히 상업적인 분야에서 관심을 끌고 있는 기술이다. RBAC에 대한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있지만 그 중에서도 현재 가장 시급하게 대두되고 있는 부분은 역할 위임에 관한 문제이다. 실제 조직에서 직원의 휴가나 병가 또는 기타 이유로 한 사람의 역할을 다른 사람에게 위임해야 될 필요성이 존재한다. 그러나 현재 NIST의 RBAC 표준은 이러한 역할 위임에 관한 속성을 정의하고 있지 않다. 본 논문에서는 효율적인 접근통제를 위해 위임자가 역할과 권한의 일부를 피 위임자에게 위임할 수 있는 RBAC 모델을 제시하였다.

In commemoration of Vol. 30, Issue 1, our journal prepares four review articles and two original papers. The first review article provides guidelines for medical treatment for emergencies in an aircraft furing flight. This guideline addresses the resources and medical equipment available to physicians on board, common medical conditions, how to deal with them, including legal issues. The second review article covers historically meaningful animals that have contributed to aerospace research and the role of a veterinarian. The third one describes cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, and vestibular physiological effects of microgravity on the human body. As we are about to enter an aging society, the fourth review article introduces guidelines for safe overseas travel for senior passengers. The role of the aviation medical examiner is to maintain aircrew's health and to help them work long and healthy. In this regard, Choi et al. analyzed the physical examination data and sick leave data of an airline. Han et al. investigated the aerospace medical examination data of the Republic of Korea and suggested a solution to some common health problems of the crew.

Middle-ear barotrauma is a common problem reported by aircrew members and passengers. Studies have shown that 20~50% of passengers report ear complaints during the flight or after landing. Barotitis media is defined as an acute or chronic inflammation caused by a pressure differential between the tympanic cavity and the surrounding atmosphere. The Problems caused by otitis media or sinusitis of aircrew during landing and take-off can be a threat to aviation safety. Therefore, the aviation medical examiner should know about barotitis media of aircrews. In this paper, we aimed to learn what is barotitis media and how much it could affect aircrews. Also, we aimed to evaluate how barotitis media could make an impact on crews during flight, and how to manage these problems.

Background: Despite the lack of official COVID-19 statistics, various workplaces and occupations have been at the center of COVID-19 outbreaks. We aimed to compare legal measures and governance established for managing COVID-19 infection risks at workplaces in nine Asia and Pacific countries and to recommend key administrative measures. Methods: We collected information on legal measures and governance from both general citizens and workers regarding infection risks such as COVID-19 from industrial hygiene professionals in nine countries (Indonesia, India, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, Republic of the Philippines, Republic of Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand) using a structured questionnaire. Results: A governmental body overseeing public health and welfare was in charge of containing the spread and occurrence of infectious diseases under an infectious disease control and prevention act or another special act, although the name of the pertinent organizations and legislation vary among countries. Unlike in the case of other traditional hazards, there have been no specific articles or clauses describing the means of mitigating virus risk in the workplace that are legally required of employers, making it difficult to define the responsibilities of the employer. Each country maintains own legal systems regarding access to the duration, administration, and financing of paid sick leave. Many workers may not have access to paid sick leave even if it is legally guaranteed.

본 연구는 노동자가 업무 이외의 이유로 아프게 되면, 노동시장에서 어떻게 고용 불안정성을 경험하고 또 빈곤화를 경험하는지 분석한다. 특히 아픈 노동자에 대한 한국 사회보장제의 소득보장 기능을 분석하고, 상병수당이 부재한 한국 복지국가의 특수성이 아픈 노동자의 빈곤화에 미치는 영향에 주의를 기울이며 사례 연구를 실시했다. 연구 결과, 아픈 노동자들은 상병으로 고통을 경험해도 일단 '아파도 참는다'. 특히 불안정 노동을 하는 비정규직 노동자들은 아프면 몸을 회복할 수 있는 휴직을 누릴 수 있는 여지가 없이 실직을 경험하게 된다. 그리고 아파서 실직을 경험하게 되어도 소득 감소분을 채우기 위해 더 불안정한 노동이라도 지속하는 경향이 있었다. 그 과정에서 가족 등 주변 사회적 자원이 무너지는 양상도 보이면서, 빈곤화의 경로를 밟는 것이 관찰됐다. 상병과 실업이라는 복합적인 위기에 처한 노동자를 위한 사회보장제도에도 사각지대가 확인됐다. 산재를 겪은 노동자들은 산업재해 신고를 기피하는 사업주 탓에 제도의 혜택에서 벗어나기도 하였고 또 상병으로 실직한 노동자를 고용주가 '자발적 실업'으로 신고하여 실업수당에도 배제됐다. 본 연구는 노동자의 상병으로 인한 일자리 불안정화와 빈곤화 과정을 구체적으로 확인하는 연구로 의의가 있다. 또한 상병수당의 부재와 아픈 노동자의 관계가, 상병수당을 포함하여 한국 소득보장제에 어떠한 학술적, 정책적 함의를 가지는지 고찰했다.

Purpose: This study was to examine the influences of working conditions and health status on absence due to sickness in health and medical related workers. Methods: Data from the Third Korean Working Condition Survey was used. Study participants included 929 workers who have been working in the medical and healthcare fields. Descriptive analysis, independent t-test, ${\chi}^2$ test, Fisher's exact test and logistic regression analyses were performed using SPSS 21.0 statistical program. Results: Absence due to sickness was found in 7.8% of health and medical related workers. Absence due to sickness differed significantly depending on monthly income, company size, work-related musculoskeletal risk factors, job control, physical health problems and subjective health status would be important factors affecting absence. Conclusion: This study provides evidences that predictors of absence due to sickness in workers of medical and healthcare fields are identified. Therefore, we need the active support for health care service promotion and prevention for predictors of absence due to sickness.

Background: Agriculture ranks among the most dangerous trades worldwide. There is, however, still a lack of knowledge on nonfatal injuries in agriculture. The aim of this study was to describe the nature and occurrence of nonfatal injuries in farmers in two counties in central Norway. Methods: A questionnaire was sent to 7,004 farmers in Norway. We asked for information about the respondents and the farm, whether the farmer had had work-related injuries on the farm during the past 12 months, and details about the incidence and seriousness of the injury. Results: A total of 2,699 respondents gave a response rate of 42%. Of the respondents, 249 (9.2%) reported one or more work-related injuries. The most usual cause of injury involved an animal, and >75% of these happened inside the outbuilding. Among these, 17.5% had a consequence of sick leave or a more serious result. When all the accidents were analyzed by stepwise logistic regression, only the variables: works alone, has >3,500 stipulated working hours at the farm, and the type of production were statistical significant explanatory variables for having an injury. Conclusion: Incorporating safety aspects to a greater extend in the design and construction of outbuildings would make a substantial contribution to injury prevention in agriculture.
