10 Most Unsafe Places For Workers
7. Afghanistan:
Afghanistan comes up in the list of the world’s most dangerous countries to work in. Even with thousands of private security and army personnel deployed in the country, certain parts of the country, like the areas bordering Pakistan are hotspots of violence. People in those regions are believed to own some sort of automatic weapon for security purpose. According to the data released by United Nations officials, relief workers are the most targeted ones by the militants operating in the country. The number of aid workers killed in Afghanistan has more than tripled in 2013.
6. Somalia:
In Somalia, as the security situation continues to deteriorate, many organizations are finding it increasingly difficult to accomplish the desired results. Working conditions for organizations in this country are particularly harsh, as compared to those in other developing countries. The humanitarian context is one of the worst in the world. Many workers have encountered risks in terms of financial resources, the possibility of corruption, security concerns, and the threats to humanitarian principles. On top of this, the country has long been defined by terrorism, famine, and piracy.
