And yet half of the top 10 most dangerous report transportation incidents as the .ost common cause of injury or death.

I worked so.ewhere where there were an unacceptable number of deaths too. And it wasn't that dangerous of a job either.

One, a guy got high on the job and startinf driving donuts with a forklift. He took somebody's head off.

One was either a suicide or a hear related event, nobody knows. What is known is that she was in an isolated part of the workplace, a supervisor was too busy harassing some workers to do his job and she laid on the floor for over 20 minutes before she was found. If it was a heart related event, she didn't necessarily have to die. If it was a suicide it could have gone either way I guess. Depends.

Last one was a heat event with an older worker. I heard a lot of shady stuff about that one, he was beinf taken off in an ambulance when I got in. He didn't make it.

Perhaps the reason the women don't last long in your industry has less to do with the difficulty of the work and more to do with it being a biy's club that's hostile to work on and/or the conditions being such that they have to choose the job or the family.
