Abstract

BACKGROUND

Although there are many studies on working adolescents, information on youth who simultaneously hold jobs on both a farm and in other sectors of the economy is lacking.

METHODS

Six high schools in rural Minnesota were evaluated for adolescent work practices and injury incidence. A 20-page self-administered survey was administered to students.

RESULTS

A total of 2,250 students completed the survey, representing 92% of the student body. Students that simultaneously hold both farm and non-farm jobs have a significantly higher proportion of injuries. However, annual injury rates are highest for those working in non-farm only (26.7/100 full-time equivalents, FTEs) or farm only (25.9/100 FTEs) employment when compared with those working simultaneously in farm and non-farm jobs (21.9/100 FTEs).

CONCLUSIONS

Many rural students employed simultaneously on farm and non-farm jobs work long hours and are at significant risk of work-related injury. The annual injury rates we estimated are higher than those reported in previous studies.

摘要

背景

尽管有许多关于打工青少年的研究，但缺乏关于同时在农场和经济其他部门工作的青少年的信息。

方法

对明尼苏达州农村的六所高中的青少年工作实践和受伤发生率进行了评估。对学生进行了一项20页的自我管理调查。

结果

共有2250名学生完成了调查，占学生总数的92%。同时从事农场和非农场工作的学生受伤比例明显更高。然而，与同时从事农场和非农场工作的学生（每100个全时当量中有21.9人受伤）相比，仅从事非农场工作（每100个全时当量中有26.7人受伤）或仅从事农场工作（每100个全时当量中有25.9人受伤）的学生年受伤率最高。
