Abstract

We compared the representation of the four largest Latino subpopulation groups in the health workforce with that group's representation in the US workforce, using 2016-20 data. Mexican Americans were the most underrepresented subpopulation in professions requiring advanced degrees. All groups were overrepresented in occupations requiring less than a bachelor's degree. Among recent health professions graduates, overall Latino representation has been increasing over time.

摘要

我们比较了四大拉丁裔群体在卫生劳动力中的代表性与该群体在美国劳动力中的代表性，使用的是 2016-20 年的数据。在需要高级学位的专业中，墨西哥裔美国人是代表性最不足的群体。所有群体在需要不到学士学位的职业中都存在过度代表的情况。在最近的卫生专业毕业生中，拉丁裔的整体代表性随着时间的推移一直在增加。
