What is LOLER?

LOLER refers to the Lifting Operation and Lifting Equipment regulations that came into force in 1998.

This regulation aims to reduce the risks to people’s health and safety from lifting equipment that is provided for use at work.

Lifting equipment is also subject to the requirements of the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998, known as PUWER. We cover PUWER in another course.

LOLER requires that lifting equipment that has been provided for your use at work is:

1. Strong and stable enough for the particular use and marked to indicate safe working loads

2. Positioned and installed to minimise any risks

3. Used safely - so the work must be planned, organised and performed by competent people, and subject to ongoing thorough examination and inspected by a competent person.

Who is this course for?

This course is for everyone who lifts at work or supervises those that do.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
