Definitely it can be dangerous because i think that the office job and sales staff jobs are on there due to the high stress a lot of the time involved with them, not the actual injuries, but being stressed out can weaken the immune system allowing a person to become sick.

Two of these occupational categories involve routine contact with disease vectors.
Janitorial/housekeeping–my occupation, incidentally, and a common one for blacklisted employees and the disfigured–has major risks of hepatitis infection and chemical toxicity from methamphetamine residue cleanup. Pink-collar office ghetto is a category where you can get replaced by a temp for actually taking your sick leave, and where mommies unintentionally bring toddler colds and flu bugs to work with them.

Yeah A’Llyn, watch those files. One little cut can lead to some freakish infection and then wham-o!

Kidding. But you have to admit that seeing Office Workers near the top of that list is a tad shocking, no?

Wow…I’m an office/administrative worker. I had no idea I took my life in my hands coming in to work every day.

Maybe it’s all the filing? I get some nasty paper cuts from time to time.
