어린이전용수영장 시설 안전관리에 관한 법·제도적 고찰과 운영 실태

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the act and system and operational status on safety management of kids swimming pool facilities, which have rapidly grown into private sports facilities, and the actual conditions of facilities and operations. To achieve these research objectives, this study established four research problems and collected data through literature reviews, fact-finding surveys through quasi-participatory observations, and in-depth interviews to identify them. The results of the study are as follows. First, it was found that small private sport facilities such as kids swimming pools were very vulnerable to restrictions on application standards and regulations compared to public sport facilities. Second, the kids swimming pools are managed by establishing its own operating manual and system, while the relevant laws and regulations of the government and the departments are insufficient. Third, it was confirmed that there were no detailed laws, systems or regulations on facilities for safety management as a result of investigating the actual condition of facilities of the kids swimming pools. In terms of the management of facilities, it was confirmed that the kids swimming pools are self-organizing the relevant manual and that the facilities are also managed and maintained by themselves. Fourth, it is suggested that it needs to draw institutional attention of the government and local governments in order to supplement and improve legal and policy regulations on Facility and operational safety. It is necessary to establish an efficient management system for the kids swimming pools through the implementation of new systems such as evaluation and certification system.
