How often do people get hurt on forklifts, really?
Very often! In fact, of all the workplace injuries reported every year in the U.S. to the Department of Labor, one in six is forklift related – that’s over 95,000 injuries!. Over 100 people die each year on or because of forklifts in the U.S. alone. And the majority of the injuries and deaths are people who are not operating the forklifts, meaning that awareness of pedestrians and other workers is seriously lacking in many businesses.
