LOLER Certification

What is LOLER?

The Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations (LOLER) aim to reduce the health and safety risks from using lifting equipment in the workplace.

What does LOLER do?

The LOLER regulations require that lifting equipment provided for use at work is:

Strong and stable enough for the particular use and marked to indicate safe working loads

Positioned and installed to minimise any risks

Used safely - i.e. the work is planned, organised and performed by competent people

Subject to ongoing thorough examination and, where appropriate, inspected by competent people
