摘要

本文探讨了由女性医护人员领导的国际服务业雇员联盟(SEIU)的一系列防止针刺伤害的运动,从20世纪80年代艾滋病毒/艾滋病流行之初,到1992年OSHA关于血液传播病原体的标准和2000年《针针安全和预防法》的斗争。我们认为,这些运动是为了应对“有管理的护理”时代女性医护人员日益增长的身体不稳定而发展起来的,这是由于医护人员的强化和灵活性,以及职业安全与健康管理局和疾病预防控制中心的放松管制和资金不足造成的。我们展示了女性工人如何通过SEIU等工会以及妇女、同性恋权利和公共卫生组织,挑战雇主、OSHA和民选联邦官员,以解决工作场所的健康危害。更广泛地说,我们认为,保健工作者的职业危害是20世纪末和21世纪初工作场所研究和女工历史的一个关键但未得到充分探索的方面。

The Precarious Work of Care
This article examines a series of Service Employees’ International Union (SEIU) campaigns for protection from needlestick injuries, led by women health-care workers, from the dawn of the HIV/AIDS epidemic in the 1980s through battles over the 1992 OSHA standard on blood-borne pathogens and the Needlestick Safety and Prevention Act of 2000. We argue that these campaigns developed in response to the growing physical precarity of women health-care workers in the era of “managed care,” caused by the intensification and flexibilization of health-care labor and the deregulation and underfunding of OSHA and the CDC. We show how women workers challenged employers, OSHA, and elected federal officials to address workplace health hazards, through unions like SEIU and women’s, gay rights, and public health organizations. More broadly, we argue that the occupational hazards of health-care workers are a crucial but underexplored facet of workplace studies and the history of women workers in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.
