EU의 표준화정책과 기준·인증제도에 관한 연구

Abstract

Purpose: This paper presents implications determined by analyzing the process in which the EU standardization system has been formed, and by analyzing the characteristics and problems of the EU’s standards and certification system. Research design, data, and methodology: Preceding studies of the EU standardization policy and the standards and certification system were analyzed. Results: T he EU’s s tandardization r egulations s ubmitted t o t he W TO a re s tandards a nd certification rules that check whether environmental requirements are met in relation to the manufacture, use, and disposal of chemicals, automobiles, and electronic products, as well as for food safety and labeling, automobile safety and formal approval, and household goods. Conclusions: From Korea’s perspective, it is first necessary to clearly understand international standards, the EU’s standards, and its certification system for each item exported to the EU, and to have an overall support system in place to respond immediately to changes in the EU market by paying close attention to changes in related rules. Second, it is necessary to respond quickly to changes in the UK’s standardization policy. Third, government support should be strengthened to revitalize the private industry standardization system and to harmonize it with national standards. Finally, we need to develop high-tech, next-generation international standards to strengthen manufacturing industries that meet global standards, and to preemptively respond to new trade environments.
