Abstract
Background: Essential non-healthcare workers experienced higher rates of SARS-CoV-2 infection compared to non-essential workers.
Objective: Identify characteristics associated with SARS-CoV-2 testing, infection and vaccine uptake among essential non-healthcare workers in Montréal, Québec.
Methods: Secondary, cross-sectional analysis of data collected from participants prospectively recruited in two observational studies (first study, Onsite Testing Study, January-March 2021; second study, Self-Testing Study, July-October 2021) of essential non-healthcare workers in 2021. Logistic regression with generalized linear mixed models was used to explore characteristics associated with our outcomes (previous SARS-CoV-2 testing, exposure and vaccination).
Results: Overall, 2,755 participants were included (first study, Onsite Testing Study, n=2,128; and second study, Self-Testing Study, n=627). A higher proportion of participants identified as male (n=1,601; 58%), non-White (n=1,527; 55%) and worked in the manufacturing/supplier sector (n=1,706; 62%). Relative to the first study, Onsite Testing Study, participants in the second study, Self-Testing Study, had higher odds (78% vs. 46%; aOR 4.1, 95% CI: 3.2-5.2) of previous SARS-CoV-2 testing and of testing positive prior to study enrolment (6.2% vs. 4.3%; aOR 1.7, 95% CI: 1.1-2.6). Individuals reporting recent SARS-CoV-2 exposure had higher odds of previous SARS-CoV-2 testing (aOR 4.0, 95% CI: 3.0-5.4), while older age (aOR 0.98, 95% CI: 0.98-0.99 per one-year increase) and being male (aOR 0.6, 95% CI: 0.5-0.7) were associated with lower odds of previous testing. Results were similar in stratified analyses. Participants from businesses with more than 50 employees had higher odds of having received a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (91% vs. 80%; aOR 2.6, 95% CI: 1.4-4.8).
Conclusion: Consideration of individual and business characteristics associated with testing and vaccination programs for SARS-CoV-2 could improve equity, uptake and impact.
