There is a terrifying phenomenon happening all across the world on farms that most people

don't know about.

Workers show up in the morning, get to work in a particular area, something happens,

a third just behind logging workers and commercial fishing and hunting, and it's not hard to see why.

life or death situation. And in fact, roofing is one of only four professions where the fatality rate tops 50 deaths per 100,000

full-time workers each year. From 2003 to 2013 alone, more than 3,500 construction workers,

a category that includes roofers, died from falls, and most in them were preventable.
