Workshop on Research Translation with Vulnerable Worker Populations
The United States' workforce is becoming increasingly diverse,
particularly in terms of race, culture, ethnicity, gender, sexual
orientation, socio-economic status, age, and physical
abilities. Workplace demographic changes have been
accompanied by significant disparities in occupational safety and
health among some working populations. A commonality across
all these vulnerable groups is the difficulty public health
professionals experience when targeting them for occupational
safety and health interventions. Some of the barriers to
effectively reaching these vulnerable groups include:
differences in language and culture, documentation status, part
time and/or contingent worker status, and employment in small
businesses.
The purpose of this workshop is to bring together thirteen leading
academics/researchers specialized in research translation (or other
terms such as diffusion, dissemination, research to practice, etc.)
and/or vulnerable worker population to provide hand-on workshops
with a focus on occupational safety and health. During the
2-day workshop, symposia and presentations submitted by researchers
and practitioners will also be held.
Held June 7-8, 2012 at Colorado State University. Click here for more information.
