519 Designing Field Safety Resources within an Intersectional Framework Lens
The morning session of this workshop will invite participants to engage in a confidential, respectful environment to learn about how safety in the field can change based on an individual’s identity and experiences. This training will teach participants how to analyze safety within an intersectional framework to better prepare and support us and our colleagues. At the end of the workshop, participants will have designed and completed a risk assessment analysis of an individually selected field site. The training will also provide resources and strategies to empower participants to be better prepared before, during, and after a fieldwork experience. The afternoon session of the course will focus on developing a code of conduct that can be used for fieldwork settings. The foundation of a positive work climate is professionalism. Professionalism refers to the attitudes and behaviors that affect interpersonal relations of all types in the workplace. A lack of professionalism and norms can contribute to hostile work climates in the field and reduce productivity, research, and education outcomes. Ultimately, issues related to hostile work climates can affect program success. Participants will work to develop a framework of their code of conduct that is proactive, preventative, and promotes cultural change in the field setting.
