Frequently Asked Questions
The frequency of inspections depends on the type of equipment and its usage.
However, as a general guide:
LOLER Inspections: Lifting equipment must be thoroughly examined at least every 12 months. Equipment used to lift people should be inspected every 6 months.
PUWER Inspections: These inspections are less rigidly timed but should be done whenever work equipment is first used and at regular intervals thereafter, depending on risk.
PSSR Inspections: The frequency is determined by a Written Scheme of Examination specific to the pressure system, which outlines the intervals for inspections.
LEV Inspections: LEV systems should be inspected and tested at least every 14 months.
WAHR Inspections: Equipment used for working at height, such as scaffolding or ladders, should be inspected before use, after any incident, and periodically depending on the nature of the equipment.

PUWER and LOLER are two important sets of regulations in the UK that govern workplace equipment safety, but they apply to different types of equipment and operations.
PUWER (Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations):
PUWER covers the safety of all types of work equipment, ranging from simple hand tools to complex machinery. Its purpose is to ensure that any equipment used at work is safe, well-maintained, and suitable for the intended task. PUWER applies to nearly all equipment used in the workplace, making it a broad regulation.
LOLER (Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations):
LOLER specifically applies to lifting equipment and lifting operations. This regulation ensures that lifting equipment, such as cranes, lifts, forklifts, and hoists, is used safely and inspected regularly. LOLER is more focused in scope, dealing exclusively with equipment used for lifting and lowering loads.
Key Difference:
PUWER is broader and applies to all equipment used in the workplace, while LOLER is specific to equipment used for lifting operations. However, if your equipment is used for lifting, it will need to comply with both PUWER and LOLER regulations.
If your equipment does not pass an inspection, Nexus Examination will provide a detailed report outlining the issues identified during the examination.
This report will include:
- A description of the non-compliant items or faults
- Recommendations for corrective actions
- A timeline for when the necessary repairs or adjustments should be completed to ensure compliance
In some cases, the equipment may need to be taken out of service until the issues are resolved to maintain safety and compliance. Our team can advise you on the next steps and help ensure a quick and safe return to operation.
