1 Department of Environmental Health, School of Public Health, Seoul National University, Seoul, Korea. 2 Institute of Health and Environment, Seoul National University, Seoul, Korea. Abstract Thirty years ago, in 1988 of Korea, street demonstrations for the recognition of a 15-year-old boy's death as occupational mercury poisoning had shattered the taboo against occupational disease, and since then, the volume and contents of recognized diseases had changed a lot. Here we tried to ascertain and explain the changes from the system viewpoint. The system of risk management at work was analyzed in narrative terms of what, how, who, and why of the occupational disease managements, then and now, and we conclude the system of last 30 years was to manage the benevolent benefit to the victims for politico-economic purposes. Despite a big shift in outer appearance, the changes in the inner operation were small, and we propose to adopt newer approaches of more health and safety oriented together with human rights. Keywords: Occupational health system; benevolent benefit; health and safety feedback; narrative analysis. |
