Abstract
En 中文
Workplace violence against health care workers is a global phenomenon has serious consequences for individuals involved, and for health care systems. Though this phenomenon has been widely studied, rates of violence remain high. Many studies tend to characterize workplace violence as a problem between individuals, largely failing to examine underlying social structures, including gendered power imbalances, that put some health care workers at greater risk of violence, both from recipients of care (patients and relatives/visitors) and from other health care workers. Intersectionality provides a useful framework to understand how overlapping social identities (e.g., gender, race) contribute to experiences of workplace violence. Our goal was to undertake a comprehensive review of the evidence on how gender and race, and their intersection, influence nurses' and nursing assistants' experiences of workplace violence and to identify gaps in the evidence to guide future research.
