A report by the Bureau of Labor Statistics that appeared in Forbes, says that 4,383 Americans died on the job last year, led by loggers, fishermen, and pilots. Military personnel did not show up in the top ten, which leads me to believe they were not included in the report.

The top ten deadliest jobs in the US last year were:

  1. Loggers.
  2. Fishermen.
  3. Pilots and flight engineers.
  4. Roofers.
  5. Structural iron and steel workers.
  6. Garbage and recycling collectors.
  7. Power line installers and repairers.
  8. Truck drivers.
  9. Farmers and ranchers.
  10. Construction workers.

Let's be careful out there.
