This study aims is to analyze of existing concepts of gender stereotypes and gender differences in wages, defining of gender pay gap determinants, and to evaluate the level of discrimination against women in Kazakhstan. This paper begins by reviewing trends in gender stereotypes and gender segregation during the past several decades. In this research, authors propose the methodological tools for presenting a standard form of evaluation of gender pay gap. The developed methodological tools will allow providing authentic and formal analysis on gender pay gap and identifying the main determinants of gender pay differences. Further, the obtained results showed the distribution of wage gap in Kazakhstan's regions and the Duncan's dissimilation index allows us to trace the dynamics of changes in the professional structure between men and women. According to the results, gender pay gap is narrowing with the reduction of the job level and discrimination is related to differences in human capital and education. Wages in the industrial sector are higher for men than for women, because men's professions are characterized by severe and unhealthy working conditions. In addition, employers prefer male managers, but if they take woman managers, they give them salary 3 times less.

Incorporation of CuO nanoparticles during the polymerization of aniline in the presence of ammonium peroxydisulphate as an oxidizing agent and sodium salt of dodecylbenzene sulphonic acid as dopant as well as surfactant yielded water soluble CuO-PANI composite. Comparison of recorded spectra like FTIR, XRD and SEM with reported one confirm the formation of the composite. Analysis by gravimetric method exposes that the synthesized composite is having resistivity against corrosion, with slight variation in efficiency on extending the time duration up to eight hours in strong acidic condition. OCP measurement, potentiodynamic polarization and EIS studies also confirms the suppression ability of composite against corrosion. Riskless working environment could be provided by the synthesized composite during industrial cleaning process.

이 연구는 근로빈곤층의 특성에 맞는 개념정의의 방법을 제안하고, 그러한 개념정의에 따를 때 근로빈곤층의 실태가 어떠한가를 규명하고자 하였다. 이는 근로빈곤층에 대한 개념정의의 방식에 따라 근로빈곤층의 특성은 상이하게 나타날 뿐 아니라, 근로빈곤층을 초점으로 하는 빈곤정책의 방향 또한 달라질 수 있다는 인식 때문이다. 이 연구에서 제안하는 개념정의에 따르면, 근로빈곤층은 '빈곤한 가구의 가구원 중 조사시점에서 지난 6개월 이내에 노동시장에서 일하거나, 구직활동을 수행한 경험이 있는 사람'이다. 이러한 개념정의는 비록 근로능력이 있지만 아동 양육 등의 활동 때문에 비경제활동인구로 존재하는 사람들을 제외시킬 수 있고, 비정규직 임금근로자나 영세자영자 등 다양한 경제활동을 하고 있는 사람들을 배제하지 않을 수 있으며, 불안정한 노동시장 지위로 인해 경제활동인구와 비경제활동인구를 넘나드는 사람들을 포함할 수 있다. 이 연구의 개념정의 방식을 따를 때, 근로빈곤층은 일반적인 생각과는 달리 남성이 여성보다 약간 더 많고, 30세$\sim$60세까지의 사람들이 60% 정도를 차지한다. 하지만 중졸 이하의 학력을 가진 사람들이 절반 가까이 된다는 점은 선행 연구들의 보고와 유사한 것이다. 근로빈곤층의 절대 다수는 어떠한 형태로든 일을 하고 있는 것으로 나타났다는 점 또한 주목할 필요가 있다. 경제활동상태별로 보면 상용직과 자영자의 비중이, 직종별로 보면 판매서비스직과 농어업직의 비중이, 산업별로는 기타서비스업과 농림수산업의 비중이 높았다. 하지만, 보다 장기적인 시점에서 파악한 근로빈곤층의 경제활동상태별 분포에서는 일용직의 비중이 상용직의 비중보다 높았다. 또한 근로빈곤층의 고용상태는 외환위기 이후 지속적으로 악화되어 왔음을 확인할 수 있었다.

The purpose of this research is to investigate the actual wearing conditions of working uniform and identify problems for the aircraft mechanic. For this study, questionnaire surveys were conducted dividing according to styles of clothing; one-piece and two-piece styles. Subjects were 343 men working in flight line. Questionnaire of 159 two-piece styles and 184 one-piece ones were used in analysis. The results of the study are as follows; The result about wearing each type of working uniform showed that the two-piece one is always as the air force uniform, whereas the one-piece one is worn only a few times. They felt inconvenience during all operations except in the sitting position, crawling position, and positions in which they were using tools. Accordingly, the result of the functionality reported dissatisfaction on all question items. Therefore, uniform of two-piece style achieved better results on all questions related to motional flexibility and functionality. Questions on changes to finishing methods showed that each airline employed different methods for both two-pieced and one-pieced uniforms. The answers about the unstitched or worn-out parts of the two-piece garments showed that pants were unstitched on the inner seam of the trouser leg and hip regions, but the upper one was not. In case of the one-pieced uniform, the parts of wearing out is the seam of hip and the unstitched parts are knee region and hem line of pants. Questions concerning their satisfaction with the material of uniforms indicated a high rate of dissatisfaction, particularly in its ventilation and absorbency. Questions concerning the preferred design of working uniform indicated a preference for two-piece uniform rather than one-piece ones.

The increasing prevalence of inactivity and obesity, along with aging, has implications on work capacity of labor force. This study reports the relationships between activity level and BMI by age with objectively measured physical workload. Data were examined from a sample of 19 481 Finnish employees using an estimate of minute-to-minute oxygen consumption based on R-R interval recordings. The mean estimated %VO₂max during the working day was 12.1 (±3.6) and 15.1 (±4.5)% for men and women, respectively. Based on a linear model, the mean %VO₂max increased by 1.5%-unit per 10-year increase in age, by 2.1%-unit per 5 kg/㎡ increase in BMI, and decreased by 1.6%-unit if improving physical activity class by two (p < 0.001 for all). Overweight and obesity, together with inactivity, notably increases workload throughout the career, even though at young adulthood, the daily workload is almost the same for each person regardless of the BMI, activity level, or gender. This study highlights the importance of regular physical activity and normal weight in protecting the worker from excessive physical (cardiovascular) workload during the whole working career.

Objectives: The proportion of those working beyond 53 hours a week in 2018 has reached 16.8% of the total number of workers in the Republic of Korea (Statistics Korea, 2018). Although there are many studies that have dealt with the correlation of long working hours and increasing risk of work-related health problems, studies dealing with the factors impacting work-related health problems of workers according to their working hours are few. This study aims to ascertain factors impacting work-related health problems of workers based on their working hours through thorough research on their work environment. Methods: Necessary factors for this study were extracted from 'the 4th Korean Working Conditions Survey to analyze details on normal characteristics and work environments used for the study analysis, work hours, and health problems related to work. Results: The results are as follows: First, men showed a greater probability of exposure to work-related health problems than did women, especially in the 50s age group, which showed the highest potential for health problems from work among age groups. Second, service providers and sales professionals showed a higher probability of work-related health problems. Third, for the work environment, health problems at work related to vibration, noise, chemical and poison exposure, exhaustion, pain, standing position, and repeated motion showed a higher probability if the work hours are long. Conclusions: This study suggests that the minimization of overtime labor would prevent work-related health problems and diseases, improve the well-being of workers, and decrease the negative impact on workers in the subject area.
