What regulations affect lifting and work equipment supply?
The Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 (LOLER) apply specifically to lifting equipment and lifting accessories. LOLER requires lifting equipment to be strong, stable and suitable for the intended lifting operation, and to be clearly marked, properly maintained and subject to thorough examination.
-
Equipment must be suitable for the task: The correct lifting equipment should be selected based on working load limit, lifting method and operating environment
-
Equipment must be safe and compliant: Products should be manufactured to recognised standards and supplied with the appropriate certification and traceability
Equipment must be used correctly: Operators should understand load limits, connection methods, inspection requirements and safe lifting practices
-
Risks must be controlled: The use of compliant chain hoists, shackles, lifting points and slings helps reduce risk during lifting operations
For lifting accessories such as shackles, lifting slings and lifting points, compliance with relevant product standards is essential. Depending on the product, this may include standards such as BS EN 13889 for shackles, EN 1492-1 for webbing slings and BS EN 13155 for non-fixed load lifting attachments.
The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (PUWER) underpin these requirements by ensuring that all work equipment is suitable for its intended use, maintained in a safe condition and operated by trained personnel.
The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) provides guidance on lifting equipment compliance and safe use https://www.hse.gov.uk/work-equipment-machinery/thorough-examinations-lifting-equipment.htm.
