America's Most Dangerous Jobs

America's Most Dangerous Jobs
Laura Morsch, CareerBuilder.com writer
For many of us, the most dangerous part of the workday is the commute -- followed closely by teetering on stiletto heels.
Nationwide, most employees have a miniscule chance of being killed at work. There were just four fatal occupational injuries per 100,000 workers in the United States in 2005, according to preliminary data from the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics.
That, of course, is just the average. For some workers -- soldiers in combat, for example -- every day is a life-threatening one. But on the domestic front, the most dangerous jobs are less obvious.
