Lift safety checks

Responsibilities for the inspection and maintenance of Lifts are covered by the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 (LOLER), and the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (PUWER).

These regulations require that any equipment, including lifts, provided for tenants must be safe for use, properly maintained, and suitable for the environment.

These works were part of the responsibilities previously undertaken by the Property Services and have since transferred to Housing for operational compliance.
