The purpose of this study was to look for not only the actual condition of industrial injuries and diseases caused by occupations such as a nurse servicer, but also the strategic prevention measures of such injuries and diseases.
The past studies of occupational injury have been focused on regular workers' status, but the atypical employment status has been considered in this research context.
This study researched nurse servicer as a part of the independent contractors.
According to the research results, the most common cause of infection for nurse servicers was the infection from the patients.
The patterns of industrial disasters were analyzed according to work types, and their countermeasures were mapped out on the basis of the results of the study. In conclusion, it was judged that industrial disasters will be effectively prevented by three measures.
First, industrial accident compensation insurance should be preferentially applied rather than preventive measures. Second, the education of industrial safety should be provided to the nurse servicers, although it is an administrative problem. Third, medical checkup should be periodically performed. Also, the number of medical institutions for the medical checkoffs should be increased so that the nurse servicers may easily receive the checkups.
