건설근로자들의 성별에 따른 주관적 피로와 스트레스의 원인 및 해결책 조사연구

Abstract

Purpose: Fatigue and stress are known to affect the safety of workers, and female workers are particularly vulnerable to fatigue and stress. In the construction industry, it is known construction workers are more tired and stressed than other industries for various reasons. In addition, the number of female workers has recently increased at construction sites. Accordingly, we tried to find the causes and solutions of subjective fatigue and stress according to gender of construction workers.
 Method: The causes, symptoms, and solutions of fatigue and stress felt by male and female workers in the construction industry were investigated using the Delphi-AHP technique. Delphi 1st found various causes, symptoms, and solutions of subjective fatigue and stress felt by construction workers through the open questionnaire. By summarizing these results, the Delphi 2nd closed questionnaire was developed and repeatedly questioned. In addition, the AHP technique was used to understand the reliability and relative priorities of the survey results.
 Results: The causes of fatigue and stress according to gender were different, and female workers responded sensitively to fatigue. In addition, among the causes of fatigue and stress, female workers showed higher conflict with colleagues than male workers. The evaluation of the effects of fatigue and stress on safety was found to be the same regardless of gender, but female workers responded that fatigue had a greater impact on safety than male workers.
 Conclusion: Female workers in the construction industry were found to be more vulnerable to fatigue and stress than male workers, and in particular, conflicts with colleagues related to human relationships were higher than those of men, so management of this is considered necessary for safety.
