Female doctors are calling for safer and more equal workplaces for the benefit of the workforce and patients<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

TIME\u2019S UP Healthcare<\/a> launches today with a mission to ensure that our healthcare workplaces are safe, equitable, and dignified. It is launching at unique time in history. In 2017, the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) <\/span>reported that<\/span><\/a> there are more women entering US medical schools than men for the first time ever. A year later, the National Academies of Science, Engineering and Medicine (NASEM)<\/span> published a report on the culture of sexual harassment in academic institutions. [1] This report that found that sexual harassment is extremely common across all scientific fields, with the highest prevalence in medicine.<\/span>\u00a0[2] Nearly 50% of medical students experience gender harassment before they even started their careers as physicians. [3]<\/span> In addition, over a quarter of nurses have experienced sexual harassment, over a third have been physically assaulted in the workplace, and almost two thirds have experienced verbal abuse. [4]<\/span><\/p>\n

TIME\u2019S UP Healthcare has been founded by 50 women and over a dozen advisors. It includes a diverse group of women in leadership roles throughout US medicine, nursing, pharmacy, research and healthcare administration. It is affiliated with TIME\u2019S UP, an organization with partners across various industries all committed to working within their areas to drive change and promote equity. TIME\u2019S UP Healthcare\u2019s diversity extends beyond job titles to include representation across race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and gender identity. The primary goal is to raise awareness about gender inequalities and sexual harassment across healthcare workplaces, and to create a call to action for organizations\u2014and key leadership within these organizations\u2014to address these systemic problems. [3 – 5]<\/span><\/p>\n

TIME\u2019S UP Healthcare focuses not only on sexual harassment, but also on gender discrimination in healthcare workplaces. [6,7]<\/span> Since unequal power dynamics are at the root of both harassment and discrimination, these problems are even worse for women from<\/span> ethnic minorities<\/span> or for those women belonging to other marginalized groups. One of the clearest manifestations of gender discrimination is compensation. On average, female physicians earn less than men, even after controlling for education, experience and productivity.<\/span>\u00a0[8] This is true across healthcare professions. For example, although almost 90% of registered nurses are women, the average salary of male nurses is $5,000 higher than female\u00a0nurses<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0[9]<\/span><\/p>\n

It is important to note that TIME\u2019S UP Healthcare differs from other TIME\u2019S UP initiatives in three key ways. Firstly, healthcare workers are at risk of harassment not only from colleagues or supervisors, but also from patients. In a recent survey of 790 physicians, the perpetrators of harassment were often reported to be patients (32%) or relatives of patients (11%). [2]<\/span>\u00a0This creates the inevitable tension of balancing healthcare providers professional role in caring for patients, with their personal need for safety. The potential downstream impact of this tension on the mental health of healthcare professionals, burnout rates, and career satisfaction warrants further study. [10,11]<\/span><\/p>\n

Secondly, many healthcare workers specialize in provision of direct physical and mental health care to people who have suffered from sexual harassment or assault. This makes them knowledgeable about the resources available and support systems. \u00a0As experts in evidence-based treatment, we are uniquely positioned to add to the dialog and work on systemic solutions to address sexual harassment in our own workplaces, and beyond.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thirdly, solving the problems of gender inequity and harassment in the healthcare workplace has potential downstream benefits not just for the individual women affected, but also for the healthcare system and the patients served. \u00a0Diversity in the workforce has been shown\u2014again and again\u2014to benefit creative pursuits in research and patient care. Having women as equal partners in this healthcare setting will mean that the providers more accurately reflect their patient population, and delivery of innovative, high quality, and patient-centered care will improve. TIME\u2019S UP Healthcare is not only an opportunity to support working women in healthcare settings, but also ultimately strives to improve the care their patients receive.<\/span><\/p>\n

Today\u2019s launch of TIME\u2019S UP Healthcare will no doubt raise awareness about the challenges that women working in healthcare face. But awareness is not enough. It is time for systemic solutions to address gender disparities in the healthcare workforce. \u00a0The time is now. We owe it to our patients, to our colleagues, and to our profession as a whole.<\/span><\/p>\n
