| Summary: | Although there is ample international research on occupational health and safety (OHS) of workers in the manufacturing sector, little is known regarding the OHS of migrant and ethnic minority workers in the New Zealand (NZ) manufacturing sector and there is even less research on the OHS of Pacific workers in the food manufacturing sector. While government statistics have shown that most workers employed in the manufacturing sector are Pacific workers, there is little understanding of the OHS issues they face. This study aimed to undertake a review of the literature to determine the working experiences of Pacific workers in the food manufacturing sector, with particular attention to the main OHS risks in their workplaces. As a result, the research showed OHS risks significantly negatively impact Pacific workers, their families, and friends, particularly Pacific workers in the food manufacturing sector. |
