Frequently Asked Questions
What does LOLER stand for?
LOLER stands for Lifting Operations & Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998. These regulations require lifting equipment such as lighting bars, hoists and winches, to undergo a thorough examination every six months if used for lifting people and accessories, or 12 months for general operations. These examinations include visual, load and function tests carried out by a competent, accredited inspector. It’s mandatory to keep detailed records of inspections, defects, and corrective actions.
What does PUWER stand for?
PUWER stands for The Provision & Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998. These regulations require work equipment to be safe, suitable for its intended purpose and properly maintained. PUWER Regulation 6 does not specify how often to examine equipment, however it should be inspected after installation and at suitable intervals, based on its exposure to conditions causing deterioration and any exceptional circumstances. Keeping detailed records of inspections and repairs is mandatory.
