LOLER Thorough Examinations

Compliance and LOLER Thorough Examinations

Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 (LOLER) covers Thorough Examinations required by law to reduce the risk of accidents and improve all-around health and safety for lift users.

Duty holders are responsible for ensuring lifts are examined to LOLER standards every six months (or 12 months for good lifts.) This applies irrespective of whether the lifting equipment is owned by the organisation or not. It is the duty of employers to ensure staff and public safety is the utmost priority at all time, that’s why LOLER is in place for all UK businesses.
