This study examines the effect of cosmetic certification marks on consumer behavior. The underlying objectives of this study are threefold. First, it explores whether the certification mark inserted into the cosmetic package—such as marks denoting quality assurances, ethical practices (specifically, pertaining to animal testing), and recycling packaging—affects consumer responses. Second, it investigates whether a higher number of certification marks leads to heightened positive consumer responses. Third, it analyzes the potential moderating effect of consumers’ certification mark knowledge on the relationship between certification marks and consumer responses. In the pretest, certification marks with higher recognition were selected as stimuli, and a survey involving a total of 550 male and female consumers was conducted. The collected data were analyzed through ANOVA and post-hoc tests. The findings of this study confirm a significant difference in consumer responses to products based on the certification marks inserted in the cosmetic packaging. Compared to clusters without a certification mark, groups with two or more certifications (recycling certification + ethics certification, recycling certification + quality certification, recycling certification + ethics certification + quality certification) exhibit significant consumer responses. Second, more certification marks did not result in an increase in positive consumer responses. Third, a moderating effect of consumers’ cosmetic certification knowledge on the certification mark-consumer response relationship was not found. The findings of this study have implications for developing product promotion strategies that leverage cosmetic certification marks as a marketing tool.

This study analyzed that the infant carrier standard affects the satisfaction of certification. Baby Carrier Safety requirements in the Republic of Korea is enforceable by court duty certification. Therefore, a test was conducted to compare with the safety requirements of the United States and Europe and the survey was conducted to know how much manufacturers and importers are satisfied with the certification. According to the test result, there is a difference between domestic and foreign safety requirements about flame retardancy. As a result of the survey, The satisfaction of the certification is proportionate to the one of product standard.

본 연구는 227개의 국내 중소기업들을 대상으로 기업의 활용적(exploratory) 혁신활동 및 탐색적(exploitative) 혁신활동이 경영성과에 미치는 영향을 분석하였고, 이러한 영향이 혁신형 기업의 경우에는 어떻게 달라지는지 또한 기술환경 및 소비자환경에 따라 어떻게 달라지는지를 분석하였다.최근에 새로운 역량을 개발하는 탐색과 기존 역량을 바탕으로 하는 활용이 적절한 균형을 이루는 것이 매우 중요해졌다. 두 가지 유형의 혁신활동이 경영성과에 어떠한 영향을 미칠 것이라는 본 연구의 핵심질문은 대부분의 기업이 당면하고 있는 상충적인 전략적 요구에 대한 인식에서 비롯되었다.실증연구 결과, 활용적 혁신활동과 탐색적 혁신활동은 모두 경영성과에 정의 영향을 미치고 있었다. 기술혁신성과인 K마크인증, 신제품(NEP)인증 등 제품임의인증을 취득한 혁신형 기업의 경우 탐색적 혁신활동은 재무적 성과에 정의 영향을 미치고 있는 반면, 활용적 혁신활동은 재무적 성과에 유의한 영향을 미치고 있지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 한편 기술환경 및 소비자환경과 같은 환경요인들은 두 가지 유형의 혁신활동과 경영성과의 관계에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper introduces determination rules for specifications of quality characteristics and dependability requirements. This study also presents guidelines for various inclusions in standards such as environmental aspects, safety aspects, third-party certification systems, medical devices, and the needs of older persons and persons with disabilities.

HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) has been receiving a worldwide recognition as a scientific andsystemic sanitary management technology in the food safety. At present, mandatory HACCP for dairy products is appliedin dairy processing plants and milk collection stage, while it is not applied in dairy farm and transportation. Therefore, it isrequired to establish HACCP application in all dairy industrial areas. The purpose of this study is to suggest an effectiveapproach to implement HACCP chain system in domestic dairy products. Most lactic acid bacteria has been useful toimprove gastrointestinal disorders such as diarrhea, constipation and reduce colon cancer risk and hydrocholesterol inKorea. The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety has increasingly applied the HACCP-chain system to secure the safety oflivestock products. Therefore, we suggest for the introduction of HACCP chain system in the dairy industry as follows.First, the system needs political support to activate. Second, the enterprise needs to recognize that it is essential system inan era of a consumer. Third, it should be utilized as an effective tool to enhance a brand value in the market. If there areobstacles in the implementation process for dairy products, governments, academia and relevant institutions should resolvea dispute together, which might enhance the level of livestock processing industry and hygiene safety management.

1994년 성수대교 붕괴사고 이후 강구조물의 품질 관리를 위해 철강구조물제작공장 인증제도가 건설기술관리법에 도입되어 법정임의 인증제도로 운영되고 있다. 그러나 콘크리트 부재의 공장 생산 방식인 PC (Precast Concrete)에 대해 국가적인 품질인증 체계는 마련되어있지 않다. 이에 건축 구조용 PC를 대상으로 적절한 품질인증제도 도입을 위해 북미, 유럽, 일본 등의 PC 품질인증제도를 조사하였다. 북미에서 PC 공장인증제도를 운영하고 있는 곳은 PCI, NPCA, CPCI 등이 있다. 유럽에서 PC 제품을 판매하기 위해서는 CPR 305/2011을따르도록 법으로 정해져 PC 제품을 포함한 모든 건설 제품은 2013년 7월부터 CE 마크를 의무적으로 부착해야 한다. 일본의 경우 토목용PC 제품은 제품인증인 JIS 마크 인증을 받도록 되어 있고 건축 구조용 PC를 생산하는 공장은 일본 프리패브협회의 심사를 받고 있다. 이런 조사 결과에 근거하여 국내 인증 체계에 부합될 수 있도록 건축 구조용 PC 제품의 인증제도의 도입 방향을 이 논문에 제시하였다.
