How far away is death? Roofing work
Roofing work was the fourth most dangerous profession in 2019, with the fatality rate at 48.6 and more than 100 lives lost.
According to Roof Revivers’ blog, “Why is Roofing so Dangerous”:
Why roofing is such a dangerous job
Roofers’ work is a job that almost everyone needs, but nobody understands the dangerous stigma that surrounds it. They think of the job as something that anyone could do, but realistically you have to be very tough and smart to be a full-time roofer. The job is physically demanding as well as intellectually demanding, which is why it was rated as one of the ten most dangerous jobs in the world. Most people don’t understand why roofing is so dangerous.
Always at risk to fall
When you’re up on the roof, whether the weather is perfect, or it’s raining, you have a chance of falling off of the roof and sustaining serious injuries. Even expert roofers have had near-death experiences with falling before. Thirty-four percent of falling injuries for roofers end up being fatalities due to the serious damage done by falling. Roofers also dealing with tons of equipment on the roof they can trip on when working as well.
