Atlanta, GA -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/26/2016 -- Darwin Johnson, one of Athens, GA's best-known work comp lawyers, sees clients from all walks of life and career paths. Some of them emerge from fields with statistically high injury rates, and others do not. According to Johnson, anyone can become seriously hurt as a result of a workplace mishap, regardless of the field in which it occurred. With that said, not all jobs are created equally when it comes to the potential for getting hurt, so Johnson offered his readers with an article about some of the safer jobs in the United States.
In the write-up, Johnson cited academia, investment and financial services and other business sector areas as the fields in which employees are least likely to suffer from injuries. "Anyone who wants to really capitalize on a low risk job should join the financial sector," Johnson said, joking that the industry is very safe to work in "unless you consider heart attack rates when the stock market crashes." The financial sector contributed a miniscule 0.1 percent of overall injuries while on the job in the United States last year.
Academia and other business sector fields are not far behind in their low numbers. For example, patent and trademark leasing services were responsible for merely 0.2 percent of all workplace injuries last year, said Johnson in the article, citing Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) statistics.
Nevertheless, Johnson, a workers' compensation lawyer serving Athens, GA and nearby areas, reminded readers that low statistics do not equal a zero percent chance of getting hurt, cautioning them that "accidents happen to anyone."
