Why you really need to know about LOLER
And I don’t mean the showgirl, either.
If you are using a vehicle with a tail-lift as part of your business you need to be aware of the fact that this tail-lift falls under LOLER. LOLER is The Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 and covers equipment used to lift or lower a load.
Personnel lifts require a thorough examination at least every 6 months and non-personnel lifts require a thorough examination at least every 12 months.
A Tail-lift requires that the operative is stood on the platform during operation, so this makes it a personnel lift and that means it needs to have a thorough inspection every six months. The inspection needs to be done by a competent person or company, Fleet Risk Consultants can help you find a suitable company to do the inspection for you. If you want us to help locate a company to do your inspections please contact us.
