What is LOLER Compliance?
LOLER (Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998) governs the examination of lifting equipment used for work purposes in the UK. Compliance is a legal requirement for any organisation using MEWPs, cranes, hoists, or other lifting devices—whether owned, leased, or hired.
The goal of LOLER is simple: to ensure that all lifting operations are carried out safely and that all equipment is strong, stable, and properly maintained. Failure to comply can result in fines, downtime, or serious safety risks to employees.
Why Regular LOLER Inspections Matter
Under UK regulations, all lifting equipment must undergo periodic examinations to remain compliant. These inspection services are designed to identify any defects or weaknesses that could compromise safety during operation.
A LOLER inspection typically involves:
- A full examination of lifting equipment by a qualified competent person
- Structural checks for cracks, corrosion, or wear
- Testing of hydraulic and mechanical systems
- Verification of safe working loads and load-bearing components
- Review of maintenance records and documentation
Depending on the equipment type, inspections are usually required every 6 to 12 months. This ensures your machinery is always ready for safe and efficient use.
