직업복귀 산업재해근로자의 일자리만족 영향요인에 대한 연구

This research was conducted to analyze the influence of factors affecting job satisfaction among industrial workers that had experienced a lost-time, work-related accident and subsequently returned to work with the aim of improving job satisfaction in this population. Data were obtained from the third year of the second cohort of the industrial accident insurance panel provided by the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service, and the data of 1,780 individuals who returned to their original jobs or were re-employed after an industrial accident were analyzed. Multiple regression analysis was performed by gender and classifying survey subjects into returnee and reemployment groups. Variables influencing job satisfaction, such as thoughts regarding current work, life satisfaction, consideration received from co-workers, and relationships with co-workers, were common among these groups, though the relative influences of variables that affect job satisfaction differed. The study presents ideas for policies and panel surveys for improving job satisfaction among industrial workers that have experienced a serious accident, details study limitations, and suggests directions for future research.
