Hi All,
Can someone point me in the direction of clarification that LOLER covers ladders?

I have obtained several guides from companies in relation to compliance and there was no mention of ladders.

Are they just covered under the WAH Regs?

Thanks

LOLER = lifting operations and lifting equipment, so if you mean does LOLER require ladder testing, etc, then no it does not.

Ladders are covered by PUWER, not LOLER,
