“…Including the report illustrated in Table 5, we reviewed 19 studies with data on gender and SES (Agaku, King, Dube, et al, 2014; CDC, 2003, 2004a, 2004b, 2005b, 2006c, 2007, 2008a, 2010c, 2011, 2012a, 2013b; Chae et al, 2006; de Castro et al, 2010; Jamal et al, 2014; Lee, LeBlanc, Fleming, Gómez-Marín, & Pitman, 2004; Schoenborn & Adams, 2010; Schoenborn et al, 2004; Syamlal et al, 2014). Eighteen reports showed prevalence differences by education and gender (all reports except Lee et al, 2004), 16 by poverty status and gender (Agaku, King, Dube, et al, 2014; CDC, 2003, 2004a, 2004b, 2005b, 2006c, 2007, 2008a, 2010c, 2011, 2012a, 2013b; Chae et al, 2006; Jamal et al, 2014; Schoenborn & Adams, 2010; Schoenborn et al, 2004), one by occupation and gender (Lee et al, 2004), three by disability and gender (Agaku, King, Dube, et al, 2014; CDC, 2012a; Jamal et al, 2014), and two by annual income and gender (de Castro et al, 2010; Syamlal et al, 2014).…”

All of these studies noted differences in smoking prevalence by levels of education, poverty, or disability status and gender differences within the different levels of SES.…”

This report describes results from a systematic literature review examining gender differences in U.S. prevalence rates of current use of tobacco and nicotine delivery products and how they intersect with other vulnerabilities to tobacco use. We searched PubMed on gender differences in tobacco use across the years 2004–2014. For inclusion, reports had to be in English, in a peer-reviewed journal or federal government report, report prevalence rates for current use of a tobacco product in males and females, and use a U.S. nationally representative sample. Prevalence rates were generally higher in males than females across all products. This pattern remained stable despite changes over time in overall prevalence rates. Gender differences generally were robust when intersecting with other vulnerabilities, although decreases in the magnitude of gender differences were noted among younger and older users, and among educational levels and race/ethnic groups associated with the highest or lowest prevalence rates. Overall, these results document a pervasive association of gender with vulnerability to tobacco use that acts additively with other vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities should be considered whenever formulating tobacco control and regulatory policies.

“…Resultados similares foram descritos para ambos os sexos 34 , assim como variações similares às mostradas pelos nossos resultados. Castro et al 35 identificaram diferença no gradiente social para o tabagismo entre homens e mulheres. No que se refere aos trabalhadores de menor qualificação e desempregados, em amostra representativa da população americana acima de 18 anos de idade, as prevalências foram mais elevadas no sexo masculino do que no feminino.…”

“…An additional four articles employed cross-sectional data from defined study populations to investigate occupational gradients in a variety of health-related outcomes, with virtually all finding that these gradients often varied by race/ ethnicity and gender [Buchanan et al, 2010;Davila et al, 2010;De Castro et al, 2010;Meyer et al, 2010]. For example, Buchanan et al [2010] found that among the underresearched but large population of non-supervisory hotel workers, injury rates among employees of five major US fullservice hotels were highest among housekeepers, who were disproportionately women of color and among whom Hispanic women were at highest risk.…”

Workers are people too: Societal aspects of occupational health disparities—an ecosocial perspective

Workers are people too. What else is new? This seemingly self-evident proposition, however, takes on new meaning when considering the challenging and deeply important issue of occupational health disparities--the topic that is the focus of 12 articles in this special issue of the American Journal of Industrial Medicine. In this commentary, I highlight some of the myriad ways that societal determinants of health intertwine with each and every aspect of occupation-related health inequities, as analyzed from an ecosocial perspective. The engagement extends from basic surveillance to etiologic research, from conceptualization and measurement of variables to analysis and interpretation of data, from causal inference to preventive action, and from the political economy of work to the political economy of health. A basic point is that who is employed (or not) in what kinds of jobs, with what kinds of exposures, what kinds of treatment, and what kinds of job stability, benefits, and pay-as well as what evidence exists about these conditions and what action is taken to address them-depends on societal context. At issue are diverse aspects of people's social location within their societies, in relation to their jointly experienced-and embodied-realities of socioeconomic position, race/ethnicity, nationality, nativity, immigration and citizen status, age, gender, and sexuality, among others. Reviewing the papers' findings, I discuss the scientific and real-world action challenges they pose. Recommendations include better conceptualization and measurement of socioeconomic position and race/ethnicity and also use of the health and human rights framework to further the public health mission of ensuring the conditions that enable people-including workers-to live healthy and dignified lives.
