They can be made of wood, thermoset plastic, or other insulating materials to prevent burning the user's hand.
However some pan handles are made of hollow metal tubes. These pans can be used in the oven without damaging their handles (as would happen with a wood or plastic handle). While their handles do conduct heat and are hotter to the touch in normal use than insulating handles, the air filled hole down the center permits airflow that carries off heat and usually keeps the part of the handle the user holds cool enough to prevent burns.

Why are saucepans handles usually made from wood or plastic?
Saucepan handles are usually made from wood or plastic because these materials have low thermal conductivity and are less likely to get hot when the pan is placed on high heat. This prevents burns or discomfort while handling the pan. Additionally, wood and plastic handles are easier to grip and more comfortable to hold compared to metal handles.

Apple wood is often used for firmer chisel handles. Socket chisel handles for heavy work are often made from hickory.ANS 2 -Many of my favorite wood chisels have handles made from 'easy to grip' rubberised composite materials. Most of these have the tang of the steel carried right through to the end of the grip. This enables the user to hammer if he really needs to ( on the odd occasion I do that, I always use a 'dead-blow' hammer.)
Why are the handles on frying pans not made of metal?
Since metal is a conductor of heat, if you touch a metal handle, it would burn you. Imagine the handle of a frying pan was wood. That wood is a terrible conductor of heat therefore the heat will not go on the wood and you won't get burnt.
