Many of us with great reluctance go to work every day, perceiving it as an inevitable evil. However, it is worth considering that there are people who regularly and voluntarily risk their lives at work.

Today we offer a closer look at the Top 10 most dangerous professions. It is compiled on the basis of statistical data on the number of accidents, morbidity and mortality of workers in various industries.

10. Oil Driller

The most common drilling incidents are fires. But hard physical work of 12 hours in not very comfortable conditions negatively affects health. In the oil industry, more than half of workers by the retirement age have a history of diseases of the musculoskeletal system.

9. Firefighter

The number of accidents with firefighters during forest fires is especially high. In addition, fire brigades are often at the epicenter of such emergencies as earthquakes, terrorist attacks, etc.

8. Skyscraper window washer

In megacities, this profession is not so rare, while the number of accidents is about 70 per 100 thousand workers. Often unpleasant incidents happen with those washers who did not undergo special training.

7. Lumberjack

In this work, both huge tree trunks and forestry equipment are dangerous. For 100 thousand lumberjacks per year, there are about a hundred accidents.

6. The welder

This profession is one of the most dangerous according to Russian statistics. However, in the United States, she was not included in the top ten. The thing is that Russian welders are much more frivolous about personal protective equipment and safety precautions.

5. High-rise installer

In this work, the number of injuries exceeds 80 cases per 100 thousand workers annually. About a quarter of these incidents are fatal. Of particular danger is the installation of high voltage lines.

4. The driver

This profession leads the rating of the most risky in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Krasnodar, Yekaterinburg and many other large cities. Due to the huge number of accidents, those who spend most of their time driving are more at risk.

3. Fishing boat sailor

According to American statistics, for every 100 thousand people working in this area, there are 118 deaths. Despite the danger, the salary of the fisherman, as a rule, is 2 - 2.5 times lower than the national average.

2. Journalist

Of course, this is not about the leading fashion column in a glossy magazine, but about those who work in hot spots, unwind political scandals and conduct independent investigations. In addition to high-profile cases of reprisals against journalists, life in conditions of constant stress should be noted.

1. Miner

Coal mining is undoubtedly the leader in the number of accidents. In Russia, China and Ukraine, for every million tons of coal mined, one dead miner is accounted for. In addition, daily diving in the depths and hard physical work adversely affect the health and longevity of miners.
