Forklift Accidents Cause Over 35,000 Serious Injuries
And Hundreds of Deaths Each Year!

Forklifts are a powerful workhorse when handled properly, but they can also be a deadly weapon when they are not. The risk is high for anyone in manufacturing, wholesale and retail trades, transportation and public utilities, and construction industries (Source: National Safety Council, Injury).

Forklift overturns are the leading cause of fatalities involving forklifts and they represent about 25% of all forklift-related deaths. The case studies examined by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) indicate that the forklift, the factory environment, and actions of the operator can all contribute to fatal incidents involving forklifts.

In addition, these fatalities indicate that many employees and employers are not using or may be unaware of safety procedures and the proper use of forklifts to reduce the risk of injury and death. (Source: OSHA)

For additional information on this fatality data, see Preventing Injuries and Deaths of Workers Who Operate or Work Near Forklifts. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) Publication No. 2001-109, (2001, June).

Forklift Accidents Cost You Time & Money

Each year, tens of thousands of injuries related to forklifts occur in US workplaces. Many employees are injured when forklifts are inadvertently driven off loading docks or fall between docks and an unsecured trailer.   Many people are also injured when they are struck by a forklift or when they fall while on elevated pallets and tines.

In addition to subjecting your facility to costly OSHA citations and lost productivity from employees, most forklift accidents also involve property damage to overhead sprinklers, racking, pipes, walls, and machinery to name only a few.

Most Accidents Are Avoidable With Simple Training

Unfortunately, most employee injuries and property damage are attributed to not following safe operating procedures, lack of safety-rule enforcement, and insufficient or inadequate training. The good news is that you can get excellent quality forklift safety training at a great price from The Training Network.
