abstract: 'This paper examines the association between US county occupational
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
structure, services availability, prevalence of risk factors, and
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
coronary mortality rates by sex and race, for 1984 1998. The 3137 US
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
counties were classified into five occupational structure categories;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
counties with the lowest percentages of the labor force in managerial,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
professional, and technical occupations were classified in category I
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(5-16\%), counties with the highest percentages were in category V
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(32-59\%). Directly age-adjusted coronary heart disease (CHD) mortality
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
rates, for aged 35-64 years, (from vital statistics and Census data),
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
per-capita services (County Business Patterns), and the prevalence of
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
CHD risk factors (Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance Surveys data) were
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
calculated for each occupational structure category. CHD mortality rates
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
and the prevalence of risk factors were inversely monotonically
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
associated with occupational structure categories for white men and
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
women but not among black men and women. Numbers of producer services
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
for banking, business credit, overall business services and
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
personnel/employment services were 2-12 times greater in category V
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
versus I counties. Consumer services such as fruit/vegetable markets,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
fitness facilities, doctor offices and social services were 1.6-3 times
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
greater in category V versus I counties. Residential racial segregation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
scores remained high in most areas despite declines during 1980-1990;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
occupational segregation by race and gender were shown indicating
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
continued institutional racism. An ecological model for conceptualizing
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
communities and health and the overall influence of state and national
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
occupational structure is discussed; intervention strategies such as
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
decreased wage disparities and `living wage'' standards and development
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
is discussed. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.'
