Abstract

Korea's long-term care insurance system has dramatically expanded the elderly care industry infrastructure. On the other hand, side effects such as lack of professionalism of caregivers and unstable employment and treatment have emerged. Due to the rapid aging of the elderly, the long-term care insurance system was designed as an alternative to social filial piety and social care due to the explosive increase in the elderly population with needs and desires for care and the limitations of traditional family support. In addition, in preparation for the reduction of the economically active population due to low birth rates, the purpose is to promote women's participation in economic activities at home and to create care jobs suitable for women on a large scale. This study empirically analyzed the effects on care ethics and job satisfaction by raising the human rights awareness of caregivers. The summary of the study is as follows. The test results of Hypothesis 1 are as follows. First, human rights awareness had a significant effect on basic work ethics. Second, human rights awareness had a significant effect on work ethics for clients. Third, human rights awareness had a significant effect on work ethics for colleagues. Fourth, human rights awareness had a significant effect on the work ethic of the facility. The test results of Hypothesis 2 are as follows. Fifth, basic ethics had no significant effect on job satisfaction. Sixth, the elderly ethics had no significant effect on job satisfaction. Seventh, work ethic about coworkers had a significant effect on job satisfaction. Eighth, occupational ethics of facilities had a significant effect on job satisfaction.
