dc.description.abstract | This study was conducted to investigate the causes and consequences of the vulnerability of occupational health and safety (OHS) regulations to deregulation during a period of economic crisis in the Republic of Korea. Analysis of Korea's national regulation database revealed that the vulnerability of OHS regulations to deregulation was related to the fact that OHS policy included many regulations without direct deregulatory impacts on workers. The most affected victim of this characteristic was information regulation that provided a legal basis for government's monitoring and inspection of OHS activities. The massive relaxation of information regulation has the potential to weaken government oversight and to tempt businesses to hide industrial accidents. Since changes in regulations without direct deregulatory impacts are not easily identifiable by workers, careful monitoring of deregulation is necessary to prevent policy impacts harmful to workers' health and safety. | - |
