About
Dr. Hayoung Jung is a leading researcher in occupational and environmental health, with a primary focus on respiratory protection and human factors engineering. Her most notable contribution is the development of Korean representative headforms for testing filtering facepiece respirators (FFRs), addressing a critical gap in workplace safety. Recognizing that standard headforms do not reflect Korean facial characteristics, Dr. Jung conducted direct measurements of 5,110 individuals and 3D scans of 2,044 subjects to create anatomically accurate models. This work, published in 2023, has already garnered 2 citations and is foundational for improving total inward leakage testing, ensuring FFRs provide effective protection for Korean workers. Her research bridges anthropometry and industrial hygiene, directly impacting respirator design and certification standards. Dr. Jung’s achievements highlight her commitment to evidence-based safety solutions that account for population diversity, making her a pivotal figure in advancing personalized protective equipment and reducing occupational respiratory risks.
