Study Reveals High Safety Risks in U.S. Agricultural Work
A recent study by Dennis Hernandez Injury Attorneys has identified several U.S. states where agricultural work poses significant safety risks. The study analyzed injury data from 42 states, focusing on fatal and non-fatal workplace injuries. States like Wyoming, Alaska, Montana, Arkansas, and Iowa were found to have higher risks, particularly in agriculture, forestry, fishing, and hunting sectors. Wyoming recorded the highest risk score, largely due to high fatal injury rates in farming. The study emphasizes the need for improved safety measures in these industries.
