Dear Colleagues,

I am looking for the  below information related to Forklift accidents from any published documents/sites, irrespective of the sector or region:

1. Forklift incident rate.(in operating manhours)

2. Forklift accident costs (total loss without LTI & total loss with LTI) - This could be very relative. Even if I get it for any kind of FLT or human injury, it will help me in a broad assessment

Hope someone will be able to help.

Regards,

P

Pretty sure that they stopped drilling down into statistics relating to this level of request a number of years ago (it is all a lot more generic/basic these days unfortunately). If you don't mind something a bit more historical take a look at https://www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/sir60.pdf which might give you some decent info.

You might try the Fork Lift Truck Association.

The HSE did stop publishing this information a few years ago.

The FLTA and BITA joined together last year and are now called UKMHA.

I sit on various accrediting bodies for the lift truck industry and also work for a lift truck training company and it does take a long time, research, phone calls and meetings to try and establish even basic numbers.

There is nothing published on LTI'S.

Also during COVID, with a number of sites either being furloughed or reduced hours, doesn' really give a full picture.

A good source maybe to look at the 4 members of the ABA, AITT, RTITB, NPORS,ITSSAR and LANTRA as they may have statistics for their bodies.

Hope this helps

Andy
