The purpose of this study was to investigate the incidence and distribution of workplace violence among female and male long-haul truck drivers and the effects of violence on their mental and physical health. The specific aims were to: (1) Identify the types of violence that women and men experience while working as long-haul truck drivers; (2) Identify risk factors that contribute to violence against truckers and between truckers; (3) Differentiate the risks of work-related stress among distinct socio-demographic groups of truckers as they relate to specific exposures experienced by long-haul truck drivers; (4) Determine the prevalence of domestic violence experienced by long-haul truck drivers when their driving partner is also their intimate partner; and (5) Identify work environment factors that place truck drivers' safety at risk.
