职业健康方面的种族/族裔差异程度尚未得到充分研究。作者回顾了有关有色人种工人和职业伤害和疾病的证据。根据教育,性别和种族/民族,讨论了美国劳动力的就业模式,以及这些模式如何导致不成比例的暴露,从而导致预防性疾病和伤害。探讨了阻碍职业健康差异研究的方法论问题,并确定了未来的研究需求。
The extent of racial/ethnic disparities in occupational health have not been well studied. The author reviews the evidence about workers of color and occupational injuries and disease.Patterns of employment in the U.S. workforce according to education, gender, and race/ethnicity are discussed, and how these patterns might cause disproportionate exposure leading to disproportion-ate disease and injury.,Methodological issues are explored that have hampered research about occupational health disparities, and future research needs are identified.
