The Context: A Rapidly Changing Picture
Source: U.S. Census Bureau
Trend: An increasing racially and ethnically diverse national population.
Thus: A racially and ethnically more diverse workforce
Likely Short-term Effect (or longer): A less healthy workforce because of well documented racial and ethnic health disparities.
