Posted By Charley Farley-Trelawney I am preparing a paper on which of our current industries (military and highways excluded) carries the highest casualty factor. It would be to include fatalities. I am keen to calculate %'s. whilst I accept construction is going to be up there, I wish to get further into specifics of trades. From Insurance stats I am of the understanding window cleaners once upon a time took the title in the insurable league tables, this is now almost certainly not the case due to the advent of 'reach and wash' from ground level, hmmm WRULD's & RSI spring up now. Traffic management as a job would be helpful. Any information that could be provided would be most welcome, and in advance I thank you for your time; this is a not for profit exercise. Many thanks in anticipation. CFT
