With a rate of workplace fatalities 30 times higher than the national average, logging is the most dangerous profession in the U.S., including the military. This is reflected in the costs of insurance; loggers in Washington State pay premiums that range between $6.51 and $26.94 per hour. But for all the dangers of traumatic or lethal injury, there is something that is not so much a risk as a given outcome. Almost 100% of all long-term loggers sustain such severe musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) that they result in a career change before the age of 50. By a wide margin, MSDs represent the largest percentage of compensable occupational claims in the logging industry.
