사업장의 안전보건교육 경험에 따른 불안전한 행동이 안전보건문화에 미치는 영향에 관한 연구

Abstract

Safety and health education at the workplace is an important way to prevent industrial accidents, and is a basic matter in which workers can participate, and is the employer's obligation. Although the importance of safety training in the workplace is recognized, there is much controversy about its effectiveness in improving on-site operability. Accordingly, this study aims to understand the actual status of safety and health education and determine the impact of unsafe behavior on safety and health culture according to safety and health education experience. It was conducted for the purpose of using basic data to verify and activate the effectiveness of safety and health education in the future. This study conducted a survey of workers at about 150 manufacturing plants from August to December 2022, and 300 people were selected for final analysis. The survey questions were designed to fit the study using questions used in the Occupational Safety and Health Trend Survey(2015) conducted by the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency and the risk assessment of safety management consulting organizations. The collected data were subjected to frequency analysis, factor analysis, and multiple regression analysis using SPSS 21.0 program. As a result, workers were aware of the obligation to provide safety and health education, and the experience of regular safety and health education was the highest among safety education. Those who experienced safety education showed that inappropriate management or supervision, negligence during work, unreasonable actions and movements, inappropriate use of equipment and tools, unsafe work performance, and unreasonable work influenced the perception of safety and health culture. For inexperienced people, inadequate management or supervision appeared to affect safety and health culture. Through this study, it was confirmed that awareness of unsafe behavior is formed through education and is a factor that influences safety and health culture. In the future, it will be necessary to provide an opportunity to form a safety and health culture by linking safety and health education to activation within the workplace and field operability. In addition, it seems that more management is needed to make safety and health education a reality and continuously implement it.
