Charting Danger: America's Top-Risk Professions Revealed
A recent analysis suggests that working in occupations such as farming πΎ, forestry π², fishing π£, and hunting π¦ is at risk in the United States. It has come to the public's attention from some reporters that working in these professions can be dangerous.
These industries have the highest employee mortality rates as 18.6 are obese per 100,000 workers based on labor data for 2022 (the latest year available). That's because the data comes from an AFL-CIO study showing that other highly dangerous jobs include mining, quarrying, and oil extraction (16.6 deaths per 100,000 workers); Transportation and storage (14.1); and construction (9.6).
According to the union, about 5500 workers died during work in America in 2022, which is more than 5190 last year, therefore it is becoming very important to be conscious about the safety and health of workers because it is also important for humanity. It is also necessary so that we can create a good society in which safety and health for all should come first.
AFL-CIO President Liz Shuler said in a statement that worker deaths are rising because some workers fear potential retaliation for exposing dangerous conditions in their jobs. They are not coming forward with the courage to expose the situations. And as a result, many employees are working in a safe environment today. This is the current situation. There must be a safe environment for the workers.
And according to some reports, according to the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration, drug overdoses by employees at work, lethal violence against co-workers, and suicides have also contributed to the increase in workplace deaths. Have contributed a lot because this situation is happening with the workers even today, hence it is very important to build a good society by fulfilling the responsibility of the safety and health of the workers where the workers can get a healthy environment to work.
Agriculture has long been a risky job for many workers because farmers and farm workers are exposed to lung-damaging dust, while animal feces also contain mold or bacteria, according to federal health data. Falls from ladders, farm machinery and grain bins continue to pose another risk. There must be a good environment for the health and safety of workers. This is why farming is the riskiest job for workers.
Workers Meanwhile, miners often work in confined underground spaces where toxic or explosive gases such as hydrogen sulphide or methane can be released, and also face the risk of collapse, which has led to much of the current focus on safety for workers. should give.
This is not surprising because according to the AFL-CIO, states with large numbers of agricultural and extractive industry workers had the highest death rates, with Wyoming topping the list with 12.7 deaths for every 100,000 workers. This figure is rapidly bringing the attention of all of us towards the safety of workers for humanity. The list included North Dakota (9.8 deaths); Mississippi (6.9); New Mexico and West Virginia (6.8); and Louisiana (6.4).
The AFL-CIO analysis also found that worker fatality rates among workers of color were higher than other workers.
Here are the results: The death rate for Latino workers in 2022 was 4.6 for every 100,000 workers, compared to 3.7 for all workers. The union said the death rate among black workers was 4.2 per 100,000 workers, its highest level in nearly 15 years.
And right here, AFL-CIO researchers wrote, "The recent tragedy of the bridge collapse in Baltimore was responsible for the deaths of six Latino immigrant workers who were doing road work at the time of the bridge collapse."
This incident also highlights the dangerous work that immigrants do every day caring for people in the United States and the impact it can have on their families and communities when workplaces are not safe. Humanity calls us again and again that we all must create a healthy environment for the health and safety of the workers. A healthy environment is very important for a worker.
This type of safe option must be there for the workers because if the workers remain safe then they will be able to do their work with more efficiency and it is very important for humanity and nature to make complete arrangements for the safety of the workers. It is very important for the welfare of all humanity.
