The answer:

-> When the forklift raises an object, it is doing positive work. This is because electrical energy is converted in to kinetic energy that is required for the forklift to raise the object.

-> However the resultant force of the object reacts on to the forklift, causing force of drag. This slightly weighs the forklift downwards due to how much mass the object weighs.
