Migrant and seasonal farmworkers are largely Latinx men, women, and
children. They work in crop, dairy, and livestock production, and
are essential to the U.S. agricultural economy-one of the most
hazardous and least regulated industries in the United States.
Latinx migrant and seasonal farmworkers in the eastern United
States experience high rates of illness, injury, and death,
indicating widespread occupational injustice. This second edition
takes a social justice stance and integrates the past ten years of
research and intervention to address health, safety, and justice
issues for farmworkers. Contributors cover all major areas of
health and safety research for migrant and seasonal farmworkers and
their families, explore the factors that affect the health and
safety of farmworkers and their families, and suggest approaches
for further research and educational and policy intervention needed
to improve the health and safety of Latinx farmworkers and their
families. Among the chapter topics are: Occupational injury and
illness in Latinx farmworkers in the eastern United States Mental
health among Latinx farmworkers in the eastern United States The
health of women farmworkers and women in farmworker families in the
eastern United States The health of children in the Latinx
farmworker community in the eastern United States Community-based
participatory research with Latinx farmworker communities in the
eastern United States Farm labor and the struggle for justice in
the eastern United States Accessibly written and comprehensive in
its scope, this second edition of Latinx Farmworkers in the Eastern
United States: Health, Safety, and Justice will find an engaged
audience among researchers, students, and practitioners in public
health, occupational health, public policy, and social and
behavioral sciences, as well as labor advocates and healthcare
providers.
