| description | Workers in the temporary staffing industry face hazardous working conditions and
have a high risk of occupational injury. This project brought together local
workers’ centers and university investigators to build a corps of Occupational
Health Promoters (OHPs) and to test a survey tool and recruitment methods to
identify hazards and raise awareness among workers employed by temporary
staffing companies. OHPs interviewed ninety-eight workers employed by
thirty-three temporary agencies and forty-nine client companies, working mainly
in shipping and packing, manufacturing, and warehousing sectors. Surveys
identified workplace hazards. OHPs reported two companies to OSHA, resulting in
several citations. Partners reported greater understanding of occupational
safety and health challenges for temporary workers and continue to engage in
training, peer education, and coalition building. |
