I live near a sawmill, someone there died after a fork truck dropped about 2 tonne of wood on his head.
We also have a lot of forestry round here, which is obviously reasonably accident prone. The forestry get round this by taking everyone on as self employed sub contractors rather than employees, so no sick pay or compensation if you chop your arm off. Lovely people.
