What is LOLER?

LOLER stands for the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998.

Why Are LOLER Inspections Important?

LOLER inspections are vital to:

Detailed Examination of Lifting Equipment: A qualified engineer will assess all mechanical components, including ropes, pulleys, and load-bearing parts.
