摘要
移民在美国(美国)医疗保健工作人员面临挑战的工作条件。本研究旨在比较不同移民身分的医护人员的工作条件。利用2015年全国健康访谈调查(NHIS)的数据,我们比较了374名非美国雇员的社会人口特征和工作条件。1986年美国出生的医疗工作者多变量逻辑回归用于检验移民身份与所选工作条件之间的关联。调查发现,非美国。出生和美国出生的卫生保健工作者在社会人口统计学和职业特征上存在差异。在对社会人口学协变量进行调整后,非美国。出生的卫生保健工作者获得非永久性合同工作的几率更高(aOR: 1.87, 95% CI [1.25, 2.79], p <;0.01)和较低的工作场所骚扰几率(aOR: 0.51, 95% CI [0.31, 0.83], p <;0.01),与美国出生的医护人员相比。应进一步探索移民卫生工作者的职业经验,以改善组织和心理社会工作条件。
Comparison of Working Conditions Between Immigrant and Non-immigrant Healthcare Workers in the United States: Evidence From the National Health Interview Survey
Immigrants in the United States (U.S.) healthcare workforce face challenging working conditions. This study aimed to compare the working conditions of healthcare workers based on immigration status. Using National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) 2015 data, we compared the sociodemographic characteristics and working conditions between 374 non-U.S. born and 1,986 U.S. born healthcare workers. Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine associations between immigration status and selected working conditions. It was found that non-U.S. born and U.S. born healthcare workers differed in sociodemographic and occupational characteristics. After adjusting for sociodemographic covariates, non-U.S. born healthcare workers had higher odds of non-permanent contract work (aOR: 1.87, 95% CI [1.25, 2.79], p < 0.01) and lower odds of workplace harassment (aOR: 0.51, 95% CI [0.31, 0.83], p < 0.01), compared to U.S. born healthcare workers. Immigrant healthcare workers' occupational experiences should be further explored to improve organizational and psychosocial working conditions.
期刊介绍:
Safety and Health at Work (SH@W) is an international, peer-reviewed, interdisciplinary journal published quarterly in English beginning in 2010. The journal is aimed at providing grounds for the exchange of ideas and data developed through research experience in the broad field of occupational health and safety. Articles may deal with scientific research to improve workers'' health and safety by eliminating occupational accidents and diseases, pursuing a better working life, and creating a safe and comfortable working environment. The journal focuses primarily on original articles across the whole scope of occupational health and safety, but also welcomes up-to-date review papers and short communications and commentaries on urgent issues and case studies on unique epidemiological survey, methods of accident investigation, and analysis. High priority will be given to articles on occupational epidemiology, medicine, hygiene, toxicology, nursing and health services, work safety, ergonomics, work organization, engineering of safety (mechanical, electrical, chemical, and construction), safety management and policy, and studies related to economic evaluation and its social policy and organizational aspects. Its abbreviated title is Saf Health Work.
