In industries where lifting equipment is integral to daily operations, ensuring safety and compliance is not just important — it’s essential. The Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 (LOLER) mandate regular inspections to safeguard workers and maintain operational efficiency. Specifically, for care organisations in Norfolk, our expert LOLER testing services provide peace of mind that goes beyond merely meeting legal standards.

What is LOLER Testing?

LOLER testing involves thorough examinations of lifting equipment to verify its safety and functionality. In particular, within the care industry, this includes assessing equipment such as hoists, slings, and other lifting accessories. Consistently conducting regular inspections helps identify potential issues before they become hazards, thereby ensuring a safe working environment for both staff and residents.
