Across all contexts, women, young people, racial minorities, and less-educated workers were hit hardest, especially those employed in sectors requiring face-to-face interaction such as hospitality, retail, and education. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Please see the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/epub\/10.1177\/17579139241231910\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":38124,"template":"","news-cat":[],"news_tag":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.4 -
