Being a Logger – How Dangerous is it?
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.
