The Korean military has sought to build an all-round military force against the national and international security environment and future asymmetric threats as well as the military threats it faces. However, while raising the need for timely electrification, there are few cases of quantitatively evaluating the loss when electrification is delayed, making it difficult for our military to provide a logical basis to support the importance of the electrification period. Therefore, through this study, we tried to analyze the index of loss cost that can support the need for timely electrification with logical and quantitative data and present it as a logical basis. To this end, the loss cost was calculated in terms of combat efficiency, equipment utilization rate, and maintenance requirements, which can be quantitatively calculated based on “combat readiness,” a general impact on the military in case of delayed timely electrification.

식중독에 의한 사회경제적 손실을 최소화하기 위해서는 식중독과 관련된 경제적 비용 손실을 추정하는 것이 중요하다. 하지만 자료의 부족과 다양한 비용 항목의 존재로 식중독과 관련된 사회경제적 손실비용을 정확하게 추정하기에 어려운 점 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내 식중독 발생에 의한 손실비용을 추정하기에 앞서 국외에서 사용되는 사회경제적 비용항목의 기반 자료 확보를 목적으로 수행되었다. 2009-2019년 국외 식중독과 관련된 사회경제적 손실비용 측정 연구의 사례 조사를 위해 문헌 조사를 실시하였다. 이 연구에서는 사회경제적 손실비용을 크게 의료 기간에 방문한 외래/입원환자 및 의료기관에 미방문한 경험환자로 구분하였다. 또한 이들의 직접비용 및 간접비용을 고려하였고, 더 나아가 기업비용 및 행정비용 항목으로 구분하여 조사하였다. 조사 결과 문헌별, 나라별 상이한 비용항목을 사용하여 손실비용을 추정하는 것으로 관찰되었다. 직접의료비의 경우 모든 연구에서 외래 또는 입원진료비를 선정하여 비용을 산출한 것으로 관찰되었기 때문에 나라별 의료서비스의 체제 및 비용에 따라 항목을 선정해야 한다. 직접비의료비의 경우 몇 몇의 연구에서 외래 방문에 소요된 교통비만을 고려하였기 때문에 간병비 고려 여부에 대해서는 더 논의가 필요할 것으로 사료된다. 간접비용 중 조기사망비용, 작업손실비용, 여가손실비용 및 삶의 질 저하/고통비용은 고려하였으나, 병문안 기회비용은 모든 연구에서 고려하지 않았다. 직접의료비와 마찬가지로 행정비용의 경우에도 국가별 정부 예산이 상이하기 때문에 각 나라에 맞는 항목을 고려해야할 것이다. 따라서 이러한 조사 결과를 바탕으로 국내 식중독 발생에 의한 사회경제적 손실비용 분석을 위해 어떠한 비용 항목을 고려해야 할 것인지에 대한 검증절차가 필요할 것이다. 본 연구는 국내 식중독 발생에 의한 사회경제적 손실비용 분석을 위한 기초적인 정보를 제공할 것이다.

Among the information technology and automation that have rapidly developed in the manufacturing industries recently, tens of thousands of quality variables are estimated and categorized in database every day. The former existing statistical methods, or variable selection and interpretation by experts, place limits on proper judgment. Accordingly, various data mining methods, including decision tree analysis, have been developed in recent years. Cart and C5.0 are representative algorithms for decision tree analysis, but these algorithms have limits in defining the tolerance of continuous explanatory variables. Also, target variables are restricted by the information that indicates only the quality of the products like the rate of defective products. Therefore it is essential to develop an algorithm that improves upon Cart and C5.0 and allows access to new quality information such as loss cost. In this study, a new algorithm was developed not only to find the major variables which minimize the target variable, loss cost, but also to overcome the limits of Cart and C5.0. The new algorithm is one that defines tolerance of variables systematically by adopting 3 categories of the continuous explanatory variables. The characteristics of larger-the-better was presumed in the environment of programming R to compare the performance among the new algorithm and existing ones, and 10 simulations were performed with 1,000 data sets for each variable. The performance of the new algorithm was verified through a mean test of loss cost. As a result of the verification show, the new algorithm found that the tolerance of continuous explanatory variables lowered loss cost more than existing ones in the larger is better characteristics. In a conclusion, the new algorithm could be used to find the tolerance of continuous explanatory variables to minimize the loss in the process taking into account the loss cost of the products.1)

With a view to analyzing the influential factors and their prioritization in association with the loss from construction disasters, this study has presented relative weighted value and importance for each category of loss by making a systematic classification of costs for non-insured categories (indirect costs) and conducting AHP analysis based on results of a survey of specialists. Through the study, first, I have divided the larger classification of loss factors into human loss factor, financial loss factor, special cost factor, and managerial loss factor, and, second, have presented prioritization of loss categories by allotting scores based on weighted values after calculating weighted value through pairwise comparison of loss levels. Based on these results of the study, we should be able to qualitatively calculate the loss costs that construction disasters inflict on business, promote rational decision-making and efficiency in spending related to a disaster, and compare it against safety investment designed to reduce disaster loss from the perspective of business strategy.

As workplace incidents has been being declining in Korea, there is criticism of the effectiveness of occupational safety policy implementation. It is unknown that which policy target group needs to be targeted to yield effective injuries prevention. The purpose of this paper is to analyze and reveal the policy intervention group with a high priority in terms of industrial incident prevention and the related investment cost. A Policy Priority Model(PPM) is composed of 6 indicators regarding influences of both the incident reduction and the cost reduction. Z-score analyses are used to confirm the high policy priority area or policy target group. Overall, workplace with worker below 50 persons, construction site with the sales of more than a hundred million won, workplace with relatively small percentage of female employees and relatively higher percentage of older worker should be prioritized to reduce workplace injuries. This paper provides an analytic way that can be used to decide the policy priority workplace in order not only to reduce work-related injuries&illnesses and the related investment cost but to further lessen the related societal costs.

We gathered exposure data on indoor air pollution, and investigated the dose-response slope factor for indoor air pollutants, such as volatile organic compounds, aldehydes and radon. Population cancer risks (that is the theoretical cancer deaths) were estimated from exposure to the pollutants. In addition, the damage costs, due to their risks, were estimated using WTP (willingness to pay) and VSL (value of a statistical life), which were investigated by a dichotomous contingent valuation method (DCVM). As a priority for human health risks and damage costs, management strategies are required for both radon and formaldehyde as indoor air pollutants. When the numeric results of human risks and damage costs are applied for other purposes, some assumptions and uncertainties have to be considered to use the results as useful screening tools for the administration of practical risk-based priorities.

The existent system of management for Measurement of Safety Cost are not effective because of the data loss and time loss and occurrence of errors through manual calculation. Therefore, tile development of the software for measurement of safety cost can solve the problem through the systematic calculation for safety cost and converting the related data to database, and also can build the strategy of the investment of Safety cost through analysing and comparing with the past data in the database. As a part of development of the software of Measurement of Safety Cost which is appropriate for the domestic environment, this study is developing a software based on Noguji method, which is one of the methods of Measurement of Safety Cost, and to appraise the efficiency of the management of Measurement of Safety Cost we will implement and improve the software in the case of the domestic enterprises.

기업의 성장과 더불어 일반적으로 산업재해로 인한 손실비용이 증가하는 추세이며, 이는 기업이나 국가적으로 그 만큼의 이익분에 대한 손실로 발생되어진다. 영국의 경우 재해로 인한 손실비율이 기업이익의 5∼10%를 차지하고 있는 것으로 최근 조사되고 있다. 따라서 기업의 경쟁력 향상을 위하여 재해로 인한 경제적 손실비용의 정확한 파악과 분석이 요구되어지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 재해손실 비용의 파악과 그 분석 기법의 체계적 비교 조사 하였다.

loom 1993 to 1996, 1,500 cases of foodborne disease was reported annually in Korea. Salmonellosis were 55.1% of the reported bacterial fordborne disease cases. However, in general, it is estimated that the reported incidence of salmonellosis represents less than the real incidence. This study showed that salmonellosis estimates 177,000 cases (about 150 times of reported cases) costing 5.9 billion won in Korea. Only medical costs and productivity losses were included in the estimate of costs of the 177,000 cases estimated to occur in 1996. This estimates were considerably difference to U.S.A. in cases and costs, but not significantly difference in cases/population (%), expense/GDP (%). Understanding the social economic costs of foodborne disease will be endorsed risk assessment as a necessary method for evaluation and improving food safety regulatory programs in Korea.

Among the costs composing the life-cycle cost of nuclear containment, the expected loss due to leakage of radioactive material is usually exorbitant, and it takes large amount in the evaluation of life-cycle cost. This study presents a process to determine optimal target reliability for nuclear containments, mainly focuses on its expected loss. It is estimated considering the surrounding environment of nuclear containment. Target reliability of containments having different lifespan can be determined by revising the expected loss estimated from the 20, 40 and 60 years of operation.

시설물의안전관리에관한특별법이 1995년 제정된 이후 정밀점검 및 정밀안전진단을 실시하여 국가의 주요시설물의 안전 확보에 기여해 왔다. 그러나 관리주체의 안전등급 판정 개입, 안전진단전문기관의 저가수주, 진단기술력 부족 등으로 점검․진단의 실효성에 관한 의문이 꾸준히 제기되어 왔다. 이에 평가제도가 도입되어 부실 점검․진단 방지로서 역할과 기능을 하고 있지만, 앞으로 부실 점검․진단비율을 더 이상 낮아지기 힘들다는 의견이 대두되고 있다. 따라서 현행 평가제도와 부실 점검․진단비율에 대한 현황 분석을 실시하고, 부실 점검․진단으로 인한 국가적 손실비용을 추정함으로서 현행 평가제도 개선의 필요성과 당위성을 제시하고자 하였다.
