초록/요약

Objectives: The study aims to investigate the direct/indirect effects of individual's psychological characteristics regarding chemical substances, risk identification, and safety and health management activities within organization on the hazard and risk awareness by applying the ‘NIOSH risk communication model’ to the managers and workers of the workplaces handling chemical substances in Korea. Methods: Regarding the variables that affect the risk awareness of managers and workers handling chemical substances in Korea, the individual's psychological characteristics(attitudes and beliefs), the safety and health management activities within organization, the risk identification, and the communication within organization were investigated. As the chemical substances for hazard and risk awareness survey, 10 chemical substances were selected including 5 chemical substances which have the highest production and usage in Korea, and 5 chemical substances which have induced occupational diseases for the last 10 years. As the workplaces for measuring the risk awareness, 2,654 workplaces which use the 10 chemical substances, identified by the working environment survey data, were examined, and 600 workplaces were finally selected considering the type of business and scale. For the selected 600 workplaces, 1 manager and 1 worker were selected from each workplace, and a survey was conducted for total 1,200 persons. Results: The response result for the research subjects indicated that 690 persons out of total 1,200 persons responded the survey, which were 388 managers(56.2%) and 302 workers(43.8%). In the case of asbestos, the path analysis on the risk communication process of chemical substance for the managers and workers showed that the risk identification has a positive(+) effect on the risk awareness for both groups. For the managers, the risk identification had statistically significant indirect effects on the controllability(β=0.129) and the degree that the known extent of the hazard(β=0.172) when the communication within organization is an intervening variable. However, for the workers, it had an indirect effect only on the degree that the known extent of the hazard(β=0.110). In the case of trichloroethylene, the path analysis for the managers showed that the safety and health management activities within organization has a direct effect(β=0.111, p<0.05) on the increase of risk awareness. However, the path analysis for the workers showed that the safety and health management activities within organization does not have an effect on the risk awareness. Conclusions: In this study, the NIOSH risk communication model was tested for the managers and workers of the workplaces handling chemical substances. The result of this study is important in that it suggests the possibility of applying the NIOSH model to the development of chemical substance risk communication model which is suitable for the situation in Korea and the effect of hazard and risk awareness on risk behaviors in the future research. The result of this study is expected to be a useful basic data for the prevention of chemical substance-related accidents through the development of risk communication model for the workplaces handling chemical substances in Korea, the establishment of hazard and risk awareness improvement strategy, the communication of chemical substances, and studies on the participation of the press(media).
