LOLER Inspection Services

LOLER regulations require all lifting equipment to undergo regular thorough examinations. These apply to any organisation whose staff use lifting equipment, regardless of ownership. It is the legal responsibility of the lift owner or site manager to ensure inspections are carried out by a competent, qualified professional.

At Workplace Inspection Services Ltd, our accredited engineers provide comprehensive LOLER inspections to keep your business safe, compliant, and fully operational. We deliver clear reports, practical recommendations, and peace of mind that your equipment meets strict HSE standards.

Lift Inspection Regulations: LOLER

Under the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations (LOLER), all lifting equipment must undergo regular thorough examinations. These rules apply to every organisation where employees use lifting equipment, regardless of who owns it. The legal duty for arranging inspections falls on the lift owner or site manager, who must ensure checks are carried out by a competent, qualified inspector.

LOLER Thorough Examination (Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998)

By law, all lifts and lifting equipment must undergo a LOLER thorough examination to protect health and safety and prevent accidents caused by faulty or poorly maintained equipment.

Key requirements under LOLER include:

Duty holders must ensure that all lifts are inspected at the required statutory intervals.
Passenger lifts must be examined at least every 6 months, and goods-only lifts at least every 12 months.
All examinations must be carried out by a competent, qualified person.
Any defects identified must be repaired without delay.
Full inspection records must be maintained and made available when required.
