背景人们普遍认为工作组织是职业安全和健康的重要组成部分，但工作组织的许多方面对健康的影响可能因工作部门和地区的不同而有很大差异。方法我们研究了与美国劳动力中农业、林业和渔业 (AgFF) 部门的移民工人特别相关的现有就业政策和工作组织相关研究，在可能的情况下重点关注 美国东南部。结果已经描述了 AgFF 子部门内工作组织的许多具体方面，但大多数文献存在于职业健康的范围之外。很少有研究直接考察与 AgFF 部门相关的工作组织属性如何影响工人（更不用说移民工人）的职业健康暴露和结果。结论与更广泛的文献相比，将 AgFF 部门的职业健康结果与工作组织联系起来的研究是有限且薄弱的。需要制定系统的研究和干预计划来制定策略，消除或大幅减轻职业暴露对健康的有害影响，而职业暴露的根源可能在于 AgFF 工作的组织。是。 J.工业医学。 56:925–939, 2013。© 2013 Wiley periodicals, Inc.
BackgroundThere is widespread agreement that work organization is an important element of occupational safety and health, but the health effects of many aspects of work organization are likely to vary considerably across different sectors of work and geographies.MethodsWe examined existing employment policies and work organization‐related research relevant specifically to immigrant workers in the Agriculture, Forestry, and Fishing (AgFF) Sector of the US workforce focusing, when possible, on the southeastern US.ResultsA number of specific aspects of work organization within AgFF subsectors have been described, but most of this literature exists outside the purview of occupational health. There are few studies that directly examine how attributes of work organization relevant to the AgFF Sector affect workers', much less immigrant workers', occupational health exposures and outcomes.ConclusionsIn contrast to the broader literature, research linking occupational health outcomes to work organization in the AgFF Sector is limited and weak. A systematic program of research and intervention is needed to develop strategies that eliminate or substantially mitigate the deleterious health effects of occupational exposures whose origins likely lie in the organization of AgFF work.
