New research has revealed the UK’s toughest jobs – with firefighters topping the list.

The poll of 2,000 Brits found paramedics, farmers and armed forces personnel were also cited as those who deserve recognition for doing of the most physically and mentally draining work.

The study was commissioned by Samsung to launch their latest Rugged device range which is designed to thrive in harsh work environments and was judged according to criteria including physical demands, danger and risk, and work environment.

The findings, which also identified police officers (34%), fishermen (16%) and construction workers (15%) among the UK’s toughest workers, underscored a growing demand among workers and employers for tech that can withstand harsh, high-risk environments.

TOP 20 TOUGHEST JOBS

1. Firefighter (45%)
2. Paramedic (44%)
3. Surgeon (44%)
4. Nurse (37%)
5. Police Officer (34%)
6. Armed Forces Personnel (28%)
7. Care Worker (22%)
8. Farmer (20%)
9. Teacher (20%)
10. Social Worker (18%)
11. Fisherman (16%)
12. Construction Worker (15%)
13. Agricultural Labourer (11%)
14. Builder / Bricklayer (9%)
15. Underground Utility Worker (9%)
16. Scaffolder (6%)
17. Mechanic (6%)
18. Roofer (6%)
19. Refuse Collector (Bin Worker) (5%)
20. Train driver (5%)

The research also revealed that nine in 10 Brits value devices capable of withstanding harsh conditions, citing reducing physical strain through equipment (54%), alerting workers to risks more quickly (53%) and automating repetitive tasks (45%) as ways to ease pressure.

To emphasise the importance of durable technology in tough jobs, Samsung enlisted farmer and shepherdess Amanda Owen to give an insight into the realities of working life on a farm.

From mucking out and herding animals, to operating machinery and navigating unpredictable weather, Amanda showcases how physically demanding farm life can be, highlighting the need for technology that can keep up with resilient workers themselves.

Amanda Owen says: “Farming isn’t for the faint hearted – we’re up before dawn, battling the elements, and it takes real resilience out here. In this environment, our tech needs to be just as tough—anything that can’t handle water or a drop is a liability. We need something rugged on the outside and smart on the inside, that can keep up with the job.”

According to respondents, 63% of people believe for a job to be ‘tough’ it must take place in an extreme environment. 58% of jobs which can be considered challenging also involve working with dangerous equipment, with a further 55% fearing dangerous people.

Two thirds (62%) of Brits agree that tough jobs need more recognition in the UK saying that they play a vital role in keeping the country running (64%), often work long hours with little rest (46%) and face hazardous conditions daily (62%) as to why they deserve more recognition.

The Samsung Rugged range, which includes the Galaxy XCover7 Pro and Tab Active5 Pro, is designed to take on tough, rugged environments, offering water and dust resistance^[5], drop protection^[6], long battery life as well as replaceable batteries, and enhanced touch sensitivity for use in the rain^[7] or with gloves^[8]

Annika Bizon, Mobile Experience VP of Product & Marketing, Samsung UK&I says:“Tough roles demand robust support. Whether it’s maintaining connectivity in the field or ensuring mission-critical tasks aren’t interrupted, having the right tech in place is essential. The Rugged range has been engineered specifically for these environments — combining military-grade durability with the business tools workforces require.”

Almost half (46%) of Brits admitted they don’t feel like they have the resilience to take on a physically demanding role, a figure that dropped to 40% among men.

In contrast, 52% of women believe they have what it takes to handle roles that might require higher levels of emotional and mental capacity.

When it comes to younger generations, 61% of those aged 18–24 have considered taking up physically tough roles when exploring career options. This compares with just 11% of Boomers, who prefer to steer clear of jobs they’d deem tough.

Two in five (38%) agree there’s a misconception that physically demanding jobs don’t require robust technology.

From construction sites and emergency callouts to remote locations and extreme weather – where phone failure simply isn’t an option – Samsung’s Rugged range is built to go the distance with those who keep the country running.

Engineered for endurance, the devices offer military-grade protection, taking up to a 1.8 metre drop with the cover on^[9], ready for whatever the job throws at them.

The programmable hot key allows you to set up shortcuts for frequently used apps, you can transform your device into a walkie-talkie, torch, scanner, payment terminal or whatever you need it to be.

But it’s not just the hardware that’s built for resilience. With the ability to set up Knox Suite^[10] swiftly with QuickStart Go, teams can be up and running with business-ready devices in no time, while Samsung Knox security keeps data protected against malware or threats.

And with 3-year warranty, up to 8- years of security maintenance releases and eight generations of operating system updates^[11], plus next-business-day doorstep exchange^[12], Rugged users get the reassurance and support they need, long after deployment.

The Samsung Rugged devices are available to purchase now. For more information, visit https://www.samsung.com/uk/business/mobile/rugged/.

London, UK, 29th July 2020 – Samsung Electronics UK Ltd. has today revealed the results of a multi-industry research study into the use of rugged technology, looking at key benefits such as productivity and cost saving, resulting in nine out of ten who have experienced these first-hand, keen to invest in more.

The results showcased that rugged tech will form a pivotal role in the future of business, with 81% of users believing that tougher devices will be essential in their workplace over the next two years. Feedback from those currently using rugged tech was resoundingly positive, with over four in five (86%) claiming that the devices are beneficial to their job.

The research^[1] looked at employees and decision-makers across Construction, Manufacturing, Transport & Logistics, Health, Retail, Emergency Services, Utilities, and Automotive sectors to reveal current attitudes towards rugged technology. Rugged refers to hardware – including smartphones, tablets, laptops and wearables – designed to operate in extremely harsh environments and conditions, such as the award-winning Samsung Galaxy XCover Pro and the Galaxy Tab Active Pro.

Within the industries highlighted, Samsung uncovered an array of key insights into the benefits and attitudes towards the wider adoption of rugged tech, with those already using or deploying it in their workplace saying the following:

• Financial efficiency: More than nine out of ten (91%) have said investing in rugged tech has reduced their long-term company costs, with half claiming the reduced need for repairs and replacements is the major economic benefit.
• Lower the risk: Over 40% workers currently use their personal device for work, raising serious concerns around data security and associated business risks. By equipping employees with rugged devices, a third of users claimed that the standard of security improved.
• Productivity boost: Nearly half (45%) said that the improved level of productivity experienced when using the devices was a key benefit. With UK productivity currently 30% lower than the US, according to PwC, results suggest rugged tech could be a valuable tool to give businesses a boost.
• Tough tech: Over half (58%) said that its durability was the primary benefit, with 84% stating that their performance improved when not having to worry about the device breaking.

“At Samsung, we are committed to listening to the opinions and challenges faced by our customers and it is excellent to see that rugged tech is making a difference for its users and their businesses,” says Joe Walsh, Director of B2B at Samsung UK & Ireland.

“These results highlight a clear enthusiasm and demands for the growth of the rugged tech market, and it is encouraging to see how many users want to continue to invest in the future. As more businesses adopt this technology, we only anticipate the appreciation for its financial and performance-based benefits to rise. At Samsung, our unyielding passion for excellence ensures we always enable our customers to thrive with innovative devices that balance their needs by being easy to use and hard to break.”

While over two-thirds (68%) of rugged users claim that they cannot imagine work life without rugged technology, the survey also revealed a strong will from non-users to deploy it in the future.

• Over two-thirds (67%) of those that don’t currently deploy rugged tech would like to incorporate it into their workplace in the future.
• Over half (52%) non-users believe their company would perform better with rugged tech, supported by 81% of current users who say they have already seen an improvement.
• Nearly three-quarters (73%) of businesses not using rugged tech have never considered the financial benefits, but more than nine out of ten current users say that it has already reduced their costs.

Looking forward, the results suggest that rugged tech will form a pivotal part of digital transformation projects across many industries. Almost two-thirds (60%) of respondents believe that rugged tech will become imperative for their industry in the next two years, with 61% users stating that tougher devices will form a vital part of the 5G revolution.
