What Do We Know About Agricultural Workers' Social Determinants of Health?
Presenter: Susan Gabbard This webinar will focus on agricultural-worker demographic and employment characteristics that may be important social determinants of the health of agricultural workers and their families by drawing on data from 1989-2014 collected by the Department of Labor's National Agricultural Workers Survey (NAWS). With the collaboration of the Health Resources Services Administration and other Federal agencies, the survey collects data across the U.S. on up to 3,000 migratory and seasonal crop workers each year. The presentation will review NAWS findings on social determinants that can either positively or negatively affect agricultural worker health including agricultural worker household composition, language fluency, housing and access to transportation, income and poverty status as well as access to social services, access to education and training, as well as some occupational risk factors and safety concerns. The presentation will discuss how groups of agricultural workers face different social determinants of health as well as how health insurance coverage, health care utilization and disease burden differ among these groups.
