Rated 5 stars by our clients on Google
What is LOLER?
LOLER stands for the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998. It’s UK legislation designed to ensure that all lifting equipment used at work is:
- Strong and stable enough for the intended load
- Positioned and installed correctly
- Clearly marked with safe working loads
- Subject to regular thorough examinations by a competent person
LOLER applies to all businesses and organisations whose employees use lifting equipment. This includes everything from builders using hoists to warehouses operating forklifts. At Fox Engineering Safety and Compliance, we work with businesses across Leicester and the wider Midlands area to help them meet their LOLER 1998 obligations with ease, clarity, and complete peace of mind.
