Abstract
Women farm workers are exposed to a multitude of biologic, chemical, physical, and mechanical hazards. High rates of machinery-related accidents and respiratory occupational illnesses are seen among agricultural workers. Many occupational diseases in women go undiagnosed if the "farmer's wife" is not asked what she does on the farm or if the physician is unfamiliar with occupational disease.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
