Pain in the (three letter word starting with A)
As stated the only pants/chaps are required by applicable standards. Heat casualties are a bigger problem then saw injury if you over protect.
This is from the OSHA site
Notice that the legs are near 7.5 times more likely to get injured then the lower legs.
Older data group the arm with the body and have the hand seperatly. That data made it 5 times more likely to get the leg then the upper body. The 1989 data had over 1000 injuries to the left hand. Requiring a left glove would make more sense then a jacket.
Here is a leg injury, too nasty to show on the page. It was the only pic I found with three IMG searches. Though it's only a thumnial pic.
