Safety, security, hygiene, and privacy in migrant farmworker housing have not previously been documented, yet these attributes are important for farmworker quality of life and dignity. This analysis describes the safety, security, hygiene, and privacy of migrant farmworker housing and delineates camp characteristics that are associated with these attributes, using data collected in 183 eastern North Carolina migrant farmworker camps in 2010. Migrant farmworker housing is deficient. For example, 73.8 percent of housing had structural damage and 52.7 percent had indoor temperatures that were not safe. Farmworkers in 83.5 percent of the housing reported that they did not feel they or their possessions were secure. Bathing or toileting privacy was absent in 46.2 percent of the housing. Camps with residents having H-2A visas or North Carolina Department of Labor certificates of inspection posted had better safety, security, and hygiene. Regulations addressing the quality of migrant farmworker housing are needed.
此前，尚未有关于流动农业工人住房的安全、安保、卫生和隐私方面的记录，但这些属性对农业工人的生活质量和尊严至关重要。本分析利用2010年在北卡罗来纳州东部183个流动农业工人营地收集的数据，描述了流动农业工人住房的安全、安保、卫生和隐私情况，并勾勒出与这些属性相关的营地特征。流动农业工人的住房存在缺陷。例如，73.8%的住房有结构损坏，52.7%的住房室内温度不安全。83.5%的住房中的农业工人表示，他们觉得自己或其财物不安全。46.2%的住房没有沐浴或如厕隐私。有持H-2A签证居民或张贴有北卡罗来纳州劳工部检查证书的营地，其安全、安保和卫生状况更好。需要制定有关流动农业工人住房质量的法规。
