Descrição do livro

IntroductionLogging Hazards

Danger in logging is ancient. In the Middle Ages, according to a history of housing, when a Chinese emperor demanded wood for building from a forested province, the peasants “wept with despair until they choked.” For every thousand people who went into the mountains in search of wood, the people said, five hundred came back.

Today, the fatality rate for loggers is far less than 50 percent. Heavy machinery and rigging systems help control the massive forces involved in moving logs from the woods; yet trees and logs, machines and rigging, still impose a heavy cost. Combining the frequency and rate of lives lost, direct logging occupations are the most hazardous work in Oregon.
