目的：这项研究探讨了工作场所，种族骚扰或歧视是否调解了种族或民族与工作相关的疾病，伤害或攻击之间的关系。方法.在两个时间点（WI：2003-2004年; W2：2004-2005年）对黑人、西班牙裔和非西班牙裔白色工人进行了全国随机数字拨号电话调查。作为调查的一部分，受访者表示他们在过去12个月内遭受过种族骚扰或歧视，以及职业病，伤害或攻击。结果如下：西班牙裔受访者比白人更有可能经历与工作有关的疾病，伤害或攻击，这些协会是由种族骚扰或歧视的经验调解。结论：减少工作场所骚扰和歧视的干预可能有助于降低西班牙裔工人与工作相关的疾病、伤害或袭击的风险。（J Occup Environ Med.2009;51：441-448）
Objective: This study examines whether workplace, racial harassment or discrimination mediates the relationship between race or ethnicity and work-related illness, injury, or assault across time. Methods. A national random digit dial phone survey was conducted at two points in time, (WI: 2003-2004; W2: 2004-2005) among a sample of Black, Hispanic and non-Hispanic white workers. As part of the survey, respondents indicated their experiences with racial harassment or discrimination, and occupational illness, injury, or assault in the past 12 months. Results: Hispanic respondents were more likely than whites to experience work-related illness, injury or assault, and these associations were mediated by experiences of racial harassment or discrimination. Conclusion: Intervention to reduce workplace harassment and discrimination may help decrease risk for work-related illness, injury, or assault among Hispanic workers.
