概要

In this study, the data obtained by a questionnaire survey were analyzed to examine the difference with the type of occupation, consistency in each situation, the inductive and restraint factors of the risk-taking behavior in the forest work to elucidate the risk-taking behavior in forest work. The results showed that (1) the Kyushu Forest Cooperative Association's staff members underestimate the risk, but have a strong recognition of "law observance," (2) the supervisor or instructor has low consciousness of risk, (3) as the inductive factor of behavior, one's own benefit in the daily situation is given the highest priority, but risk is the most important factor in situations concerning forest work and forest machine operation and handling, irrespective of the accuracy of the risk evaluation, (4) as the restraint factor of behavior, although there is a difference in the risk evaluation whether large or small, risk is given priority by all workers, and (5) the dare probability of each risk-taking behavior is highly correlated with the risk evaluation of the behavior. Among others, low consciousness of the supervisor or instructor concerning safety management is pointed out as a main factor in worker's accidents, and reconsideration of the relationship between the supervisor or instructor and workers is necessary.
