Well, assuming that there is indeed more turbulence, that could also mean more vigilance against accidents, so that could even itself out as safety regulations get stricter than in the past. Also, this is mentioned in the conclusions:

> The report includes an important discussion of the risk to unrestrained occupants onboard aircraft, including flight attendants – who account for nearly 80% of those seriously injured in turbulence-related accidents. Key recommendations in the report are intended to help ensure better protections for flight attendants

... which makes me think of two more possibilities:

1 - I suspect any careless flight attendant involved in a turbulence-related accident would learn their lesson after the first time, and take better safety precautions. Perhaps that is a stabilizing factor on the number of accidents, since the number of flight attendants who need to learn that lesson the hard way is probably more a function of how many new flight attendants enter the field than it is a product of how much turbulence there is.

2 - Flight attendants under-report minor accidents so they don't get into trouble for not respecting safety rules

Of course, this is pure speculation (and assuming that the premise of there being more CAT incidents holds up), I'm sure the actual document goes into this kind of thing in more detail but I don't have the time to dig through 115 papers.

They are briefed, no need to learn their lessons after the first time. However, it's part of their job to walk around the plane (eg to serve food), and so they're less likely to be seated than pax. That is the (rather obvious) explanation for the fact that they constitute a very high proportion of victims, not "careless"ness.
