The purpose of this study is to examine the commonalities and differences that appear across the types of perceptions toward job changes according to the Industrial 4.0. among job seekers and workers. For an approach to subjective beliefs, viewpoints and preferences, the data investigated using Q methodology, was analyzed using the QUANL program for PC. From the Q-methodology, the types of perception toward job changes due to Industrial 4.0 and their features were drawn. The perception types were classified as four types: negative perception type, neutral perception type, high evaluation about quality of jobs, and employment increase perception type. The results found that views toward job transition due to Industrial 4.0 are were diverse beyond the dichotomy and institutional and educational efforts should be required to mitigate job insecurity and cope with job changes caused by technological advance.

One of the most considerate phenomena of the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution is the use of digital devices. Digitalization is rapidly advancing through all areas of industry and life. Customer journey with digitalization is looking totally different from previous customer journey. The research targets were users of fashion, automobiles, cosmetics and online shopping malls. We analyzed 300 people for each valid questionnaire. The results of the study are as follows. First, it has been proven that digital experience affects positive (+) impact on purchasing intention and positive (+) impact on recommending intention and negative impact (-) on switching intent and subsequently affects positive impact (+) to purchase and incase of switching intent, negative impact (-) to purchase. Unlike traditional methods such as SPC(Service Profit Chain), the Digital experience to Purchase process Chain (DPC) has been identified to be suitable in the digital age. Second, the digital satisfied group (5 score-very satisfaction) has shown same result as above. However the digital neutral group (even though 4 score- satisfaction in five-point scale), specially in a highly competitive industry, has different from the satisfied group and 3 score-normal is same as dissatisfied group. It means that this group is that If there is a high level of attractiveness of substitute goods, there is a high possibility of switching them. It has supported Jones and Sasser [1995] that there have been two types of loyalty of true long-term loyalty and what we call false loyalty in the highly competitive industry zone which is commoditization or low differentiation, many substitutes, low cost of switching. Identifying true loyalty and false loyalty is crucial to establishing a customer experience strategy. it is necessary to actively utilize long-term digital experiences strategy to increase the total satisfaction of digital experience through all of customer purchasing journey in order to enhance the digital customer experience. It is difficult to see the effect as a one-time event. It should be scaled over the entire customer purchase process over a long period of time, which can positively affect purchase intention, recommendation intention, and conversion intention. This is also why it is difficult for second-runners to overtake first-runners in a short period.

Overseas advanced ports are promoting smartification, as well as full automation of the terminals surrounding container terminals. A smart port can be defined as a comprehensive concept that pursues increased operational efficiencies, maximization of profit, efficient use of energy, and construction of eco-friendly ports with the introduction of fourth-industrial-revolution technology, including port automation. However, Korea is making efforts to introduce fourth-industrial-revolution technology into ports, but indications are that they are somewhat insufficient compared to advanced ports abroad. Therefore, this study conducted a survey about operators and users of container terminals in Gwangyang Port by deriving the factors determining the introduction of smart ports, such as cost, service, time, safety, and environment, from previous studies. This study analyzed the factors determining the introduction of smart ports and moderating effects when the adjustment variables of operators and users were applied to the pros and cons. As a result of the analysis, it was found that port operators and users have a moderating effect on cost, time, safety, and environmental factors, but not on service factors. These results indicate that port operators try to reduce costs through efficient operation, time management, and by reducing safety accidents by building smart ports, but analysis showed that the negative effects of smart ports have affected port users. The results of this study were derived through a moderated regression analysis and suggested implications for introducing smart ports in the conclusion.

While the construction industry is striving to make changes suitable for the 4th industrial revolution era through the introduction of 4th industrial revolution technologies, such change is progressing more slowly than in other industries. Nevertheless, the recent digitization and digital transformation of the construction industry can provide a new paradigm to address and innovate the chronic problems faced by the construction industry. Therefore, in this study, a case study using a data hub and API for use of the data hub, which is essential for digitalization and digital transformation, was conducted, and the efficiency and feasibility of using the data hub and API were considered. When the API system was introduced, it was found that the average budget savings per person was about 23%, and the costbenefit ratio was about 4.4 times higher, indicating that the feasibility of the project was very high. The results and framework of this study can serve as fundamental research data for related research, and provide a worthy case study to promote the introduction of related technologies. This will ultimately contribute to digitalization and digital transformation for smartization of the construction industry.

As advances in artificial intelligence (AI) increasingly approach areas once relegated to the realm of science fiction, there is growing public interest in using these technologies for practical everyday tasks in both the home and the workplace. This paper explores the applications of and implications for of using ChatGPT, a conversational AI model based on GPT-3.5 and GPT-4.0, in the field of occupational health and safety. After gaining over one million users within five days of its launch, ChatGPT has shown promise in addressing issues ranging from emergency response to chemical exposure to recommending personal protective equipment. However, despite its potential usefulness, the integration of AI into scientific work and professional settings raises several concerns. These concerns include the ethical dimensions of recognizing AI as a co-author in academic publications, the limitations and biases inherent in the data used to train these models, legal responsibilities in professional contexts, and potential shifts in employment following technological advances. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive overview of these issues and to contribute to the ongoing dialogue on the responsible use of AI in occupational health and safety.

On a global level, the energy problem is a very important policy topic, particularly at a time when the nation relies on imports for more than 95% of its energy demand. The starting point of an energy policy should be in line with the international community's concern and cooperation regarding climate warming, and the logic of the new policy on renewable energy expansion in Korea, the pre-developed energy sector, and policy of deserting coal all support this aspect. In particular, to accommodate the rapid urbanization of mankind, the key words of the 4th Industrial Revolution are linking energy to IoT, artificial intelligence, block chain, cloud, and big data.
