Occupational Characteristics Are Missing from Heat Vulnerability Indices: A study in New York and New Jersey

2025-11-14

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Heat vulnerability indices and maps are widely used by government agencies to guide heat-prevention strategies and prioritize resources for at-risk communities. However, these tools typically exclude the occupational characteristics of the population, a salient source of heat exposure. Methods To examine how occupation might enrich these tools, we developed a method to genera...
