Risk Assessment, a basis of health and safety management system, is an calamity prevention activity which regularly measure the level of a risk to passively improve potential hazard. A problem, the assessment not being improved to be applied to the construction work site where requires diversity and complexity, causes the assessment to be inefficient to bring quality results. A study on the investigates and compares the surveyed degree of recognitions of workers who works in companies executing the risk assessment By the investigation and comparison, it is expected to bring the better solution for early and efficient application for those companies which are not taking the risk assessment.

This study examines the dietary, exercise, and other daily habits of Daegu residents and how these relate to the residents’ perception of their own health status, and comparatively analyzes the lifestyles and daily habits of those who perceive themselves to be healthy and those who do not. This research study used Inbody 230(Body composition analysis, Biospace, Korea) to make body and health measurements such as body composition and obesity index. Also, included in this study was a survey on the lifestyle patterns of the residents. The data from this survey was analyzed with SPSS. The results show that among the residents of Daegu, those who perceive themselves to be healthy have lower body fat and are less obese on average. With respect to dietary habits, those who believe themselves to be healthy have more regular dietary habits such as rarely skipping a meal than those who do not believe themselves to be healthy. In addition those who say they are healthy exercise more frequently and for a longer duration than those who say they are not healthy. As for daily habits, those who report they are healthy show greater satisfaction with life and suffer less from stress than those who report themselves to be unhealthy. This study demonstrates that in order to improve people’s health in Korea, good dietary, exercise and daily habits need to be emphasized. Additionally, health education and health awareness programs need to be established in each region. Follow-up studies should be conducted afterwards.

The purpose of this study is to grasp foreign worker's industrial safety and health state, which find out the improvement to secure the basic safety net for foreign workers. We have investigated 2,050 workers through direct interviews during the period from April 12, 2010 to May 31, 2010. And the result of analysis, foreign worker's daily average working time is 10.6 hours(40.8% workers in total work 10~12 hours), the extent of exposure to harmful and dangerous working environment is 'the position which cause pain in neck, waist, hands, shoulders, legs'(69.3%), 'repetitive hands and arms movement'(66.1%). It showed 'experience of accident damage or disease related work'(27.3%), 'never apply for industrial accident compensation' is revealed high at 73%. As a result of completing a safety health education for a year, it showed 'never educated'(40.2%), 'the institute that foreign workers have used for help and advice is the foreign worker's support center'(61.9%) Thus, hiring foreign workers in the company are small in site, the environment is too harmful and dangerous. In addition, no safety and health managers, legally blind spot located in the health and safety, because it is an urgent meet for these measures to improve.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the health risk and management of childhood exposure to indoor aldehydes in elementary-schools and academies. The samples were collected at children's facilities (50 elementary-schools and 46 academies) in summer (Aug ~ Sept, 2008), winter (Dec 2008 ~ Feb, 2009) and Spring (Mar ~ Apr, 2009) periods. The overall mean concentration of formaldehyde was 68.3 ㎍ /m³ and 27.2% of exceeded the 100 ㎍/m³ by the school health guideline. The concentration ratio of Indoor air and outdoor air (I/O) of aldehydes exceeds 1.0. The level of indoor air contamination did appear to be high, and 24.6% of the academies evaluated had exceeded the formaldehyde level specified by the public health act (120㎍ /m³). We estimated the lifetime excess cancer risks (ECRs) of formaldehyde, and the hazard quotients (HQs) of non-carcinogens (acetaldehyde and benzaldehyde). In addition, for carcinogens, the excess cancer risk (ECR) was calculated by considering the process of deciding cancer potency factor (CPF) and age dependent adjust Factor (ADAF) of the data of adults. The average ECRs of formaldehyde for young children were 1×10^-6~1×10^-5 level in all facilities. HQs of formaldehyde did exceed 0.1 for all subjects in elementary school.

본 연구는 마음챙김에 기초한 인지치료(Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy: MBCT) 프로그램이 수형자의 정신건강과 분노행동에 미치는 효과를 탐색하고자 수행되었다. 연구대상은 P 교도소 수형자 20명이었으며, MBCT 프로그램은 Segal 등(2002/2006)의 MBCT 프로그램을 수형자들의 정신건강 향상에 초점을 두어 수정보완한 것이었다. 회기당 120분(휴식 10분 포함), 8회기로 구성되었으며 주 4회씩 2주간 진행되었다. 프로그램의 효과검증을 위해 켄터키 마음챙김기술척도와 SCL-90-R(간이정신진단검사), 분노행동척도를 사용하였다. 그 결과 참여자들의 마음챙김수용이 사전에 비해 향상되었고, 간이정신진단 검사의 하위요인인 강박증, 불안, 적대감, 편집증, 정신증이 감소했으며, 분노행동의 분노직접표출이 감소하고 자기표현이 향상된 것으로 나타났다. 이 결과는 마음챙김에 기초한 인지치료가 수형자들의 정신건강의 향상과 분노행동 감소에 효과적으로 적용될 수 있음을 의미하고, 마음챙김훈련이 수형자들의 적응적인 수형생활과 사회적응 및 재범률 감소에 긍정적으로 활용될 수 있음을 시사한다.

This study was to assess the lifetime cancer and non-cancer risk on exposure to volatile organic compounds This study was assessed the lifetime cancer and non-cancer risk of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) exposure in young children at elementary-schools and academies in Korea. The samples were collected at children's facilities (50 elementary-schools and 42 academies) in summer (Aug ~ Sept, 2008), winter (Dec 2008 ~ Feb, 2009) and Spring (Mar ~ Apr, 2009) periods, and analyzed by GC-MSD. We estimated the lifetime excess cancer risks (ECRs) of benzene and the hazard quotients (HQs) of non-carcinogens toluene, ethylbenzene, xylene and styrene. In addition, for carcinogens, the excess cancer risk (ECR) was calculated by considering the process of deciding cancer potency factor (CPF) and age dependent adjust Factor (ADAF) from the data in adults. The average ECRs of benzene for young children were 1×10^-7~1×10^-9 level in all facilities. HQs of four non-carcinogens did not exceed 1.0 for all subjects in all facilities.

Korea enacted the occupational safety and health law in order to prevent industrial accidents in 1981. Led by ministry of labor, occupational safety and health support services policy has been built through government-affiliated organizations, research institutions and academic research. Korea's accident rate has remained at 0.7% for last 10 years despite continuous efforts over the last 30 years. These results means that the occupational safety and health support services policy conducted by the government have reached their limits. Therefore, the necessity of assessment about occupational safety and health support services policy is proposed. The main objective of this study, through the IPA analysis, is to grasp the point of worker's needs about occupational safety and health support services policy and to help formulate the efficient policy.

Probiotics는 살아있는 미생물로서 섭취했을 때 숙주에게 건강증진효과를 나타내는 미생물이다. 식품 및 제약에서 가장 많이 사용되는 probiotics로는 Lactobacillus와 Bifidobacterium 균주가 있다. 이 유산균들은 장내 정상균총의 유지, 설사 예방 및 개선, 항암, 항대장염, 면역조절, 항고지혈, 항당뇨 효과 등 많은 건강증진 효과를 나타낸다. 최근에 장내 미생물이 에너지 대사, 특히 지방 대사에 영향을 주어 체중을 조절하는데 있어 중요한 역할을 한다는 것이 알려졌다. 이와 더불어 몇몇 probiotic Lactobacillus가 비만 실험동물 뿐만 아니라 비만인에서도 체지방을 조절하는 것으로 나타나 당뇨 및 비만 등과 같은 대사성질환의 예방 및 치료에 있어 유산균의 사용 가능성이 점쳐지고 있다. 그러나 유산균의 항비만 효과 그리고 그에 관한 기전에 대해서는 많은 연구들이 수행되지 않았다. 따라서 유산균의 항비만 효과를 검증하기 위해서는 앞으로 이에 관한 기전에 대해 더 많은 연구들이 진행되어야 하고 궁극적으로 사람에서 그 효과가 검증되어야할 것이다.

This study was to assess the lifetime cancer and non-cancer risk on exposure to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and formaldehyde of worker and user at public facilities in Korea. We measured the concentrations of formaldehyde and VOCs in indoor air at 160 public buildings that 5 kinds of public facilities (30 hotel, 30 fitness center, 25 gosiwon, 30 reading-room and 45 video-room) all over the country. There were estimated the human exposure dose and risks with averages of the using-time and frequency for facility users and office workers, respectively. Carcinogens (benzene and formaldehyde) were estimated the lifetime excess cancer risks (ECRs). Non-carcinogens (toluene, ethylbenzene, xylene, and styrene) were estimated the hazard quotients (HQs). HQs of four non-carcinogens did not exceed 1.0 for all subjects in all facilities. Higher HQs of toluene were observed at the reading-room. The average ECRs of formaldehyde and benzene for facility worker and user were 1×10^-4~1×10^-6 level in all facilities. The estimated ECRs for reading-room were the highest and the fitness center and gosiwon were the next higher facilities. Because lifetime ECRs of carcinogens exceeded 1×10^-4 for facility worker in the most facilities, risk management of formaldehyde and benzene in the facilities was necessary. IAQ guidelines should be determined strictly to prevent occurrence of disease caused by poor IAQ beforehand.

This study was performed to investigate health-related behaviors and dietary attitudes among workers, using questionnaires with 338 workers in October 2005 who were employed by 5 industrial companies at the Gumi industrial complex. The result is summarized as follows. The subjects' interest in health was shown to be slightly higher than usual. An increase in their interest was observed with advancing age (p<0.05) and the level of interest was higher in females than males(p<0.05). Regarding a understanding of their health status, 57.4% of the total subjects considered their health status to be poor although there was no any known disease, while only 29.6% considered to be good. The subjects' dietary attitudes showed that the average of the each items was 2.88±0.82, and the average of the total items was 58.7±0.00. The average of their diet satisfaction was shown to be 2.88±0.82, and There was a significant difference in their diet satisfaction between residential building types(p<0.01) and work types(p<0.01). 66.8% of the total subjects answered that the main purpose of their meals was to fill an empty stomach. Their health-related behaviors, dietary attitudes and diet satisfaction showed that daily exercise, suitable diet and intake of health supplements were closely correlated with their dietary attitudes. It was also shown that there were the close correlations between the suitable diet and their dietary attitudes and diet satisfaction, between their refraining from drinking coffee and sufficient rest, between their refraining from drinking alcohol and sufficient rest, and between their feeling comfortable and drinking water as much as possible, respectively.
