What is LOLER Training?
LOLER training reduces the chances of danger in a workplace lift. LOLER training courses are a form of awareness training. Learn more about it here.
LOLER Regulations and Training Highlights
The HSE is very strict about the regulations on their website, but they can be quite broad and will change substantially depending on the application of your lifting equipment. This is because there is no point in having training on a piece of heavy industrial machinery when you will only be using a basic catering lift.
When you go through the LOLER training course that’s relevant to your specific field, you will learn the following:
LOLER Training Costs
LOLER training courses vary in cost. However, the more accredited and detailed courses, such as those in the heavy machinery and construction trade, are more expensive. The likelihood is that most professionals will have additional training requirements, with LOLER training being just a small part and a foundation for a complete trade qualification, so overall costs can be a lot higher.
Make Sure Your Lifts Are LOLER Certified
LOLER regulations are enforced by the Health and Safety Executive, an official UK government body. As a result, there is the potential for severe financial penalties in your business if you use lifting equipment that does not meet the LOLER standards or has untrained personnel.
