Being a Logger – How Dangerous is it?

Written by: Chris Caldwell. Posted in: Blog, Workers Compensation

Did you know that being a logger is one of the most dangerous jobs in America? According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), loggers face greater risks than all other professions. In fact, the three most dangerous jobs involve “man vs. nature.” Loggers are 30 times greater than the average worker of not walking away from the job at the end of the day. In spite of the important and dangerous work that loggers do, their median pay is $33,630.00.

At Caldwell Law Group, for over 20 years, we have represented loggers and others who have been unable to return to work, or have some limitations, because they were hurt on the job. Often, without the help of a knowledgeable workers compensation lawyer, loggers and others don’t receive all of the benefits to which they are entitled under workers compensation. The expert advise of Caldwell Law Group is only a phone call away. Call us or email us now to discuss your rights under workers compensation law in Idaho. The consultation is free.
