Most workers risks their lives for their job. Factory and refinery workers die at a much higher rate than astronauts. More astronauts have died in plane crashes and car accidents than have died in space. While being an astronaut seems more dangerous than most jobs, there are countless safety factors built into the spacecraft and the flight plan that don't exist in most other earthly workplaces. There's obviously a risk to space travel, but NASA and the astronauts make sure their vehicle is as safe as possible to minimize those risks as much as is humanly possible.
