초록

산업재해는 국가, 조직, 개인 차원 모두에서 큰 손실을 가져올 뿐만 아니라 근로자의 삶의 질을 저해하는 가장 중요한 요인 중 하나이다. 본 연구에서는 308명의 생산직 근로자들을 대상으로 설문지 기법을 통해 조직의 안전분위기를 결정짓는 주요 요인 중 하나인 조직의 안전실천에 대한 작업현장 근로자의 평가와 이들의 안전행동 사이의 관련성 및 이 두 가지 변인 사이의 관련성을 조절하는 직무관여의 효과를 상관분석과 위계적 회귀분석을 사용하여 분석하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 먼저, 연구 참여자들의 인구통계학적 특성과 다른 변인들의 상관관계 분석 결과, 연령이나 근속연수가 높을수록 조직의 안전실천에 대한 평가가 긍정적이고, 직무관여 수준이 높으며 안전행동 수준도 높았다. 둘째, 근로자들이 조직의 안전실천에 대해 긍정적으로 평가할수록, 그리고 직무관여 수준이 높을수록 안전행동을 수행하는 경향이 컸다. 셋째, 전반적으로 보면 안전실천에 대한 평가가 긍정적일수록 안전행동을 준수하는 경향이 유의하게 높았으나 이러한 경향은 직무관여 수준이 높을수록 더 뚜렷하였다. 이러한 결과는 조직에서 근로자의 안전행동을 유도하기 위해서는 안전규정을 포함한 안전실천의 효율적 시행이나 교육과 함께 근로자 직무관여를 높이는 방안이 동시에 모색되어져야 한다는 것을 시사한다.

Abstract

Industrial accidents can bring serious national, organizational, and personal loss. And it is one of a most influencing factors which can deteriorate individual’s well-being. This study investigated the relationship between employee’s subjective evaluation for organizations’s safety practice and safety behavior, and the moderating effect of job involvement on the relationship. Subjective rating scores for safety practice evaluation, safety behavior, and job involvement were collected from 308 in-field workers and analyzed by using correlation analysis and hierarchical regression. The results are as follows. First, the workers’ age and years of employment were positively correlated with positive evaluation for safety practice, job involvement, and safety behavior. Second, the participants showed higher score of safety behavior as they evaluated safety practice more positively and involved in their job. Third, most importantly, it was found that job involvement significantly moderated the relationship between safety practice and safety behavior. That is, this tendency was more prominent in higher job involvement condition than in lower job involvement condition. The results suggested that increasing job involvement in organization is very crucial to enhance worker’s safety behavior.
