Workplace stressors and their association with hair cortisol concentrations among ready‐made garment workers in Bangladesh: A cross‐sectional study
Abstract
Psychosocial working conditions of ready‐made garment (RMG) workers have been associated with poorer self‐reported health outcomes. However, no such research has been done with respect to physiological markers that are considered to reflect stress. We consequently aimed to investigate associations of psychosocial working conditions with such a marker, that is, hair cortisol, among RMG workers in Bangladesh.
