The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics most current statistical information* (2008) shows a continued decline in U.S. forklift fatalities:

Fatality by Source - Forklift:

2005 - 94
2006 - 81
2007 - 78
2008 - 67

*BLS statistical data is usually two years behind the current year because of the time interval needed for data collection and data analysis.
