美国警察在工作中面临巨大风险的想法进行了审查。研究发现，他们被谋杀的风险实际上低于同龄和同性别的其他人。然而，美国警察的意外死亡风险略高于其他工人。一个四方程模型，包括供应，需求，事故风险，杀人风险，估计发现，警察能够影响他们所面临的事故和杀人风险，并影响这些风险，在响应收到的工资。
The idea that US police are at great risk in their jobs is examined. It is found that their risk of being murdered is actually less than for other people of the same age and sex. US police are, however, at modestly higher risk of accidental death than are other workers. A four equation model, including supply, demand, accident risk, and homicide risk, is estimated and it is found that police are able to influence the accident and homicide risks they face and do affect these risks in response to salary received.
