Abstract
The purpose of this study is to analyze the problem of migration of risks related to migrant workers, which is increasing again in industrial sites entering the post-COVID-19 era, and explore ways to improve it. While the experiences experienced during the coronavirus pandemic have catalyzed raising awareness of safety and health in society as a whole, it is expected that the migration of risks due to the shortage of production workers will be revitalized in industrial sites beyond the outsourcing of risks through subcontracting. As the safety and health issues related to migrant workers are important in the global society under the International Labour Organization (ILO), I tried to examine the problems and ways to improve them. As a research method, I used a literature review and news trends, and keyword analysis. First, I analyzed previous studies on the migration of risks to identify issues and then conducted a trend analysis and keyword analysis of domestic articles on the migration of risks for the past five years, including the coronavirus period. Until April 2023, there was only one previous study on the migration of risks found through the RISS search, and the search term analysis of domestic newspaper articles for the last five years (April 2018-March 2023) found a total of 16 articles, and the main keywords were employment permit system, worker, employer, and work permit system. It is expected that addressing the migration of risks will be challenging unless there is a substantial improvement in societal perceptions of migrant workers, such as low awareness, hatred, and supremacism, and the results of this study can be used to provide suggestions for policy improvement.
