Yes, when we focus on the employed population, it is known that certain professional groups have higher suicide rates than others . In Spain, the professions with the highest suicide rates are those related to law enforcement and healthcare professionals.

A large-scale study conducted by Milner and colleagues found that professions with lower professional training requirements had a higher risk of completed suicide than other professions (such as cleaning staff or construction workers). Higher suicide rates were also found among farmers, military personnel, law enforcement officers, firefighters, and healthcare professionals. Among the latter, physicians, veterinarians, nurses, and dentists are known to have an increased risk, as are emergency medical technicians and ambulance workers.
