Project Overview

The Cattle Feedyard Worker Health Study has four primary aims:

Aim 1

Examine the interrelations among stress, occupational injuries, physical and psychosocial health, and social well-being outcomes.

Aim 2

Investigate whether risk and protective factors mediate or moderate the links among stress, occupational injuries, physical and psychosocial health, and social well-being outcomes. 

Aim 3

Explore whether changes in severe, perceived, and physiological stress across time are linked to changes in occupational injuries, physical and psychosocial health, and social well-being outcomes.

Aim 4

Develop, pilot, and disseminate evidence-based bilingual health and safety materials for cattle feedyard workers, industry, and partners.
