Why Lifting Equipment Maintenance Matters

FOLLOWING LOLER HEALTH & SAFETY REGULATIONS

Stay Compliant and Keep Your Employees Safe

Regular pallet truck maintenance isn’t just about avoiding breakdowns—it’s a legal requirement. PUWER and LOLER regulations mandate that all lifting equipment must be properly maintained and regularly inspected. 

Neglecting maintenance puts your workers at risk of: 

Load slippage accidents 

Back injuries from equipment failures 

Workplace collisions from faulty controls 

Our servicing ensures full regulatory compliance whilst creating a safer working environment for your team.

PUWER (Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998) ensures that all workplace equipment, including pallet trucks, is safe to use and properly maintained.

LOLER (Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998) applies to lifting gear, such as high-lift and electric pallet trucks, and requires scheduled inspections to confirm safety and stability.

Keeping your equipment in top condition not only improves performance — it also ensures you’re fully compliant with health and safety laws, creating a safer environment for everyone on-site.
