Inspection questions, answered.
What’s the difference between LOLER and PUWER?
LOLER concerns lifting equipment and lifting operations. PUWER concerns work equipment more broadly. A machine may fall under both, so the inspection scope depends on its use and equipment type.

Is a condition inspection the same as a LOLER examination?
No. A condition inspection supports decisions about a machine’s condition. A LOLER thorough examination has a specific safety and reporting purpose. Request the service you need so the correct scope can be agreed.
How often does my equipment need inspecting?
The interval depends on the equipment, its use and the applicable requirements. LOLER examinations may follow specified intervals or an examination scheme. PUWER inspection needs depend on risks and deterioration. Share your equipment details and previous reports when making an enquiry.
HSE: thorough examinations and inspectionsCan several machines be inspected during one visit?
Include the quantity and equipment list in your enquiry. The visit can then be planned around location, access, machine availability and the agreed scope.
What should I prepare for a visit?
Have equipment identification, previous reports and relevant records available. Agree a suitable inspection area, safe access and any operator assistance or testing arrangements in advance.
