This study was a secondary analysis of cross-sectional data extracted from the 2011-2012 California Health Interview Survey. Data from 8,931 full-time (i.e., 21 hours or more per week) women workers aged 18 to 85 years were analyzed to examine the nature and prevalence of immigrant female workers' work hours, overtime, and related factors in the United States compared to U.S.-born female workers. Results showed that foreign-born female workers did not work longer hours than U.S.-born female workers. Foreign-born female workers who reported poor health worked longer hours than did their U.S.-born counterparts. Foreign-born female workers who were self-employed or worked in family businesses tended to work longer hours than did those women who worked for private companies or nonprofit organizations.
本研究是对从2011 - 2012年加利福尼亚健康访谈调查中提取的横断面数据进行的二次分析。分析了8931名年龄在18至85岁的全职（即每周工作21小时或更多）职业女性的数据，以考察与美国本土出生的女性工人相比，美国移民女性工人的工作时长、加班情况及相关因素的性质和普遍性。结果显示，外国出生的女性工人工作时长并不比美国本土出生的女性工人长。报告健康状况不佳的外国出生女性工人比美国本土出生的同行工作时长更长。自营职业或在家族企业工作的外国出生女性工人往往比在私人公司或非营利组织工作的女性工作时长更长。
