New BioScience Paper Calls for Social Field Safety to Become a Standard Part of Fieldwork Preparation - Field Inclusive, Inc.
Contact: Murry Burgess; mlb1016@msstate.edu
A new paper published in BioScience is calling on the natural sciences to broaden how the field defines and prepares for safety in fieldwork.
In “Addressing social field safety as a proponent of the natural sciences workplace,” authors Murry L. Burgess, Lauren D. Pharr, and Kayla A. Stukes examine an often-overlooked dimension of fieldwork: the social and psychological risks researchers may encounter while working outdoors and away from traditional workplaces.
The authors define social field safety (SFS) as the prevention, protocols, and resources used to protect fieldworkers from discrimination, prejudice, microaggressions, and mentally or physically unsafe encounters with other people while conducting fieldwork. These concerns can include interactions with law enforcement or hostile property owners, discriminatory language or symbols, inaccessible field environments, sexual harassment or assault, and misconduct involving colleagues, supervisors, collaborators, or members of the public.
Field researchers are routinely trained to prepare for environmental hazards such as severe weather, difficult terrain, wildlife, disease exposure, and emergencies. The authors argue that preparation for interpersonal and socially driven risks has not been incorporated into field safety with the same consistency.
