산업안전보건법의 적용범위 확대와 대표이사에 대한 책임 강화

초록

The Occupational Health and Safety Act(OSHA) article 1 provides that the purpose of the Act is to maintain and promote the safety and health of employees through prevention of industrial accidents by establishing standards on industrial safety and health and clarifying where the responsibility lies, and through creation of a comfortable working environment. The main point of this purpose clause is that this act considers the health and safety issues on the employees who have employment contracts with the employers. But today’s way of supplying labours is not restricted to the employment related methods, which means OSHA should cover the different types of labour-supplies. This article shows some types of labour-supplies which should be taken care of, and the legislative method to protect them. In addition, this article also suggests new type of order for the CEOs to take health and safety lectures by way of an administrative order, because the effective enforcement of health and safety policy in the premises depends on the CEOs’ attitude toward the health and safety system.
