Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Sociology of Health
  • Health Policy Analysis

Background:

  • Health worker protests are a growing concern globally.
  • Understanding the drivers of these protests is crucial for policy development.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the quantity, distribution, and policy demands of health worker protests in Canada during 2021-2022.
  • To identify temporal trends and key issues driving health worker activism.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized data from the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data (ACLED) project.
  • Analyzed 157 health worker protest events across Canadian provinces.
  • Applied a taxonomy of policy demands to categorize protest motivations.

Main Results:

  • Protests occurred in all provinces, with Ontario having the highest frequency (~40%).
  • Primary concerns included working conditions and remuneration (57%), public policy (26%), and health services delivery (21%).
  • Specific demands focused on compensation (48 events), anti-vaccination mandates (38 events), and understaffing (19 events).

Conclusions:

  • Canadian health workers voiced concerns on diverse policy issues, including COVID-19 mitigation and health system underinvestment.
  • Addressing the identified drivers through inclusive engagement is vital for sustainable solutions.
  • Policy interventions should target specific demands like compensation and staffing to improve health worker satisfaction and retention.
