Lifting equipment (LOLER)
Thorough examinations that hold up under HSE scrutiny.
LOLER 1998 demands six- or twelve-monthly thorough examinations of lifting equipment by a competent person. Hovermarks gives examiners the right report on the device the moment they scan it, and gives duty-holders a defensible record on the day.
The challenges we hear most often
- Tracking lifting accessories across multiple sites
- Producing reports of thorough examination that satisfy HSE
- Managing examiner certification and audit trail
What Hovermarks gives you
- LOLER report templates with conditional defect codes
- Examiner credentials captured against every thorough examination — scheme name, registration number, optional certificate upload
- Defects automatically generate corrective work orders
- Per-asset inspection calendar with overdue alerts
Use case
How a lifting examiner would use it
A competent person can tag each sling, shackle, and chain block with a QR code. Scan, complete the LOLER report on the spot, and any defect classed 'A' or 'B' triggers a quarantine work order routed to the duty-holder — before the kit can be picked up again.
