The purpose of this study is to examine the awareness survey on the life and laboratory safety of the college students. For the research, data was collected from 442 students of health, engineering, fire fighting and food & cook department. Research tools were used SPSS win 19.0, the mean and standard deviation, t-test, Pearson's correlation coefficient was used. Comparing the life safety consciousness with laboratory safety consciousness, showed life safety awareness and safety laboratory has recognized the similarities (Pearson's correlation coefficient χ 2 = 296.456, p < 0.001). Results of awareness survey to safety management, the safety awareness are difference with the type of respondents major subjects.

“…The fatal accident rate and the death toll in construction field are the highest of all industrial fields, and similar accidents occur repeatedly [6,7]. Diverse ef- asters, a number of fatal accidents still occur in the construction field in Korea since a lack of safety consciousness among workers [7] and the inappropriateness of the safety management framework [8].…”

“…The gang-form related safety accidents occurred substantially at con-struction sites, and the potential for fatal accidents is high[ Figure 3 implies that the perception level of construction workers regarding safety was very low [7]. The cause of the frequent occurrence of construction disasters at a specific gang-form work stage is identified as the unsuccessful implementation of safety management, not only due to the absence of safety guidelines but also due to insufficient worker awareness of safety.…”

The gang-form widely used in apartment construction sites has advantages compared to scaffolding in preventing falling accidents. One problem, however, is that safety accidents associated with gang-form works repeatedly occur due to worker carelessness. In this study, hierarchical checking tables are provided to support safety management activities for the gang-form works at the sites. Through a survey of experts and analyses of case studies of construction accidents, 137 safety check items are classified by participant type based on a hierarchical safety check scheme. The applicability and effectiveness of the hierarchical checking tables was evaluated through interviews with experts. It was found that the hierarchical checking tables enabled each gang-form related participant to check his own safety management items, and provided a level-wise structure to site safety management systems.

“…Previous studies on the factors that may cause construction disasters at construction sites in Korea have examined the unsafe practices of individual construction laborers in Table 2 [1,9,10,11,12,13,14]. This implies that individual psychology and practice are important factors to be managed in construction disasters at construction sites.…”

Recently, the number of accidents reported involving foreign laborers has risen, and the need to prevent accidents at construction sites has become more urgent. It has been found that 90 percent of construction accidents are caused by unsafe work practices, and various studies have been conducted on these practices with the aim of preventing accidents at construction sites. However, the tendency with previous studies was to average the results of survey responses, and as a result it is impossible to consider the potential risk of how many foreign laborers feel unsafe in relation with the unsafe practices. Therefore, in this study, importance-performance analysis (IPA) was improved in order to assess the potential risk of the unsafe practices of foreign laborers at construction sites in Korea. To verify the applicability of the improved IPA, a survey was carried out, and then the results were compared with those of the IPA. Through the use of the improved IPA, unsafe practices that were not found in the previous IPA but have potential risk were identified. The method proposed in this study is expected to contribute to the prevention of construction accidents of foreign workers by enabling a more efficient management.
