AB  - In  the  United  States,  women  are  46%  of  the  paid  workforce1  and  have  one-third  of  the  compensated  occupational  health  and  safety  problems,  resulting  in  81%  of  claims  on  a  per  hour  basis.2  Although  employed  women  live  longer  than  unemployed  women  and  housewives,3  risk  factors  present  in  some  jobs  may  adversely  affect  women's  health.  Action  to  improve  women's  occupational  health  has  been  slowed  by  a  notion  that  women's  jobs  are  safe2  and  that  any  health  problems  identified  among  women  workers  can  be  attributed  to  unfitness  for  the  job,  hormonal  factors,  or  unnecessary  complaining.
