Description
Summary:"Although there is a lot of research on migration and health, as well as on work environment and health, the relation between health and work has seldom been studied taking into consideration if the employees have a background as migrants. Moving can imply being exposed to health-related factors in several work environments and other situations, but the encounter with new circumstances can also directly or indirectly lead to health risks. The report contains an overview of the complex of problems, a literature survey as well as a theoretic approach and proposals for research activities."
