According to CDC's Occupational suicide list, data from 17 states was put together in 2012, revealing that out of every 100,000 manual laborers, 85 commit suicide in United States. These people are the ones who work in isolation and include fishermen, farm workers, agricultural and forestry employees and lumberjacks.

Employees that work in healthcare support, cleaning, maintenance, social service, real estate and food service have the low risk of suicide. However, workers with lowest suicide risk are the ones who work in personal care, child care, animal care and barber shops.

Suicide is the leading cause of death in U.S., according to Suicide Awareness Voices of Education, or SAVE. As many as 43,000 deaths were recorded in 2014 that were caused due to suicide. It is also more common in men than it is in women.

This report also highlighted that the suicide risk did not always stem from occupational-related seclusion and demands. It could also happen due to poor work-life balance, stressful conditions at work and poor access to health care facilities. Other factors include low education levels, less salary, high exposure to fatal chemicals, and socioeconomic inequality.

According to a study published by journal JAMA Psychiatry, people who go to church and attend religious services are less likely to cause self-harm or undergo depression. It was also pointed out that women who are religious once or more than once a week are five times less likely to commit suicide.

Research authors explained that by participating in religious services, women can get meaningful social participation that prevents them from feeling isolated or lonely. The Catholic church also teaches people that killing yourself is a sin.
