What is “Thorough Examination”?

A thorough examination is a statutory inspection required under the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 (LOLER).

It is a safety check to identify if your lifting equipment is safe to use.

The thorough examination includes the inspection of the lifting parts of the equipment (LOLER 98, regulation 9) as well as inspection of other safety critical parts which are not directly part of the lifting mechanism (PUWER 98, regulation 6).
