What slaughterhouse workers' attitudes and knowledge reveal about human-pig relationships during pre-slaughter operations: A profile-based approach 2023 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted Slaughterhouse workers are strategic capital for the meat industry in terms of operational and animal welfare issues; however, information about the attitudes of workers toward the human-animal relationship is limited. The main aim of our study was to identify the profiles of workers based on their attitudes toward pigs, occupational satisfaction, sociodemographics, and animal handling. The survey included 171 workers in 12 Colombian pig slaughterhouses. A factor analysis and a hierarchical cluster analysis identified four segments or worker profiles. The first comprised workers who relate to animals and their work in a mechanical way, the second comprised professional workers who are emotionally close to animals, the third comprised those committed to animals and their work, and the fourth comprised workers who are apathetic toward animals and work activity. The human-animal relationship at the slaughterhouse level is multifaceted, but is influenced by dependent on work satisfaction and sympathy toward the animals. info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by-nc-nd http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ 5.7 2023 FOOD SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY 22 / 173 = 0.127 2023 Q1 T1 1.367 2023 Food Science 2023 Q1 13.0 2023 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Estévez-Moreno, Laura X.
