When it comes to analysis of job hazards, death is perhaps the penultimate risk, but to ignore the vast breadth of other job hazards that law enforcement officers are exposed to is an analytical failure.
Further compounding the issue is that law enforcement is not the job that the police are often tasked with. Some of the job hazards they are exposed to are due to making inappropriate demands of law enforcement officials.

- ShroudedNight 5y agoI've tried navigating that document, it's not clear to me where your ordering came from. FWIW 'penultimate' means second from last, suggesting that there is an 'ultimate' risk even more feared than death. I believe that's what GP was asking about.
- 9wzYQbTYsAIc 5y agoAh, sorry for not expounding further. I did understand what the GP was conveying, but I’m just saying: It is common to consider some situations as being worse than death. I suspect that most reasonable readers of that classification manual would be able to identify a selection of situations that could lead to being considered worse than death.
