农业是美国职业伤害和疾病发生率和数量最高的行业。农业中的伤害和疾病是由事故、福尔斯、过热、反复运动和接触有害农药造成的。从事农业工作的妇女与从事农业工作的男子一样，面临同样的危害和风险，但她们的生殖健康可能面临更多的不利影响。然而，很少有职业风险评估研究考虑到女性农场工人的生殖健康。这项以社区为基础的参与性研究的目的是进行一项回顾性、横断面调查，收集佛罗里达中部女性托儿所和蕨类植物农场工人样本中有关工作场所条件和行为以及孕产妇、妊娠和婴儿健康结果的信息。调查结果显示，托儿所工作人员在怀孕期间比蕨类植物工人更有可能报告健康症状。我们还观察到，母亲在蕨类植物园工作的婴儿在出生后第一年患呼吸道疾病的风险增加。我们的研究结果证实，农业工作对育龄妇女具有潜在的生殖危害。
The agricultural industry has some of the highest incidence rates and numbers of occupational injuries and illnesses in the United States. Injuries and illnesses in agriculture result from accidents, falls, excessive heat, repetitive motion and adverse pesticide exposure. Women working in agriculture are exposed to the same hazards and risks as their male counterparts, but can face additional adverse impacts on their reproductive health. Yet, few occupational risk assessment studies have considered the reproductive health of female farmworkers. The objective of this community-based participatory research study was to conduct a retrospective, cross-sectional survey to collect information on workplace conditions and behaviors and maternal, pregnancy and infant health outcomes among a sample of female nursery and fernery farmworkers in Central Florida. Survey results showed that nursery workers were more likely to report health symptoms during their pregnancy than fernery workers. We also observed a self-reported increased risk of respiratory illness in the first year of life for infants whose mothers worked in ferneries. Our findings confirm that agricultural work presents potential reproductive hazards for women of childbearing age.
