Abstract
Imagine if your job and workplace determined your health status. It may sound ridiculous, but studies show that in Korea, certain workers, such as women, older individuals, people with disabilities, and migrant workers, are more likely to have poor health compared to others. This is evident from Corona outbreaks, overworking-related deaths, and workplace accidents among subcontractors. This short video gives you the gist of a research that highlights the urgent need for monitoring and addressing health disparities among workers in Korea.
