Identifying the Occupational Health Needs of Migrant Workers
Author: Hawkes, Lynae
Date Published: 2007
Report that examines the initial stages of a community project to identify the occupational health needs of migrant workers. The study assesses the measurable progress and the observations of project staff and project evaluators. These assessments document both the successful creation of an effective work team and the team’s completion of its initial objectives. The assessments also note issues with irregular attendance by some team members, difficulties with some of the essential tasks designated for the team, and imbalance of power among members of the team. Approaches to dealing with similar issues in future projects are suggested.
