The Risks Of Public Service

According to statistics compiled by the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics, civil servants run a significantly higher risk of job-related injuries than private employees. 1.85% of public employees require time away from the job due to workplace-related injuries and/or illnesses, as compared to 1.06% for private firms.



The occupations with the highest occurrence of workplace-related injuries and/or illnesses are:

• Transit and intercity bus drivers



• Law enforcement officers



• Emergency response workers, such as firefighters



• Nursing aides and orderlies

Understandable, given the natures of said professions.



Yet another reminder of why CSE serves the people who serve the people.



They deserve it.
