Fisherman and individuals employed in the fishing industry are in an employment sector
that is the most dangerous in the nation. However, as a nation, the workplace is

Last year, there were 4,547 (revised upward) from 4340 died on the job last year.
The following 10 jobs call had fatal injuries rates at least 5 times greater than
average and there are changes from last year’s list.
TEN MOST DANGEROUS JOBS IN THE NATION
1. Fisherman
2. Loggers
3. Aircraft Pilots
4. Farmers & Ranchers
5. Mining Machine Operators
6. Roofers

Not on this year’s list is iron workers and construction laborers. Given the economy,
maybe this is a sign of the time.
