Periodic inspections of lifting equipment

One day to organise the follow-up of the site's lifting appliances and accessories: inventory, levels of checking, periodic inspections, examination after repair or incident, register and closing of observations. The course distinguishes what the operator does at the start of the shift, what maintenance does and what falls to a competent person or an outside body. The workshop builds the register and inspection schedule for your fleet.

Objectives

  1. Draw up the inventory of the site's lifting appliances and accessories, including trucks and platforms
  2. Distinguish the levels of checking: start of shift, maintenance, periodic inspection, examination after modification or incident
  3. Set and justify inspection intervals from the applicable regulations and the manufacturers' manuals
  4. Use an inspection report and track the closing of observations through to evidence
  5. Organise the register and the marking of accessories so their status can be found at any time

Frequently asked questions

Who can carry out periodic inspections?

Depending on the applicable regulations and the type of appliance, a competent person from the company or an outside body. The course helps decide who does what in your company and check that the competence of the person is documented.

Which interval should we adopt?

It depends on the applicable regulations, the type of appliance and how intensively it is used; the manufacturer's manual often specifies it. The workshop sets a justified interval for each appliance and the source behind it.

Are forklift trucks and platforms concerned?

Yes. They are lifting appliances, just like cranes and overhead cranes. They are often left out of the inventory when hired: the course also covers sharing roles with the hire company.
