All work equipment that has a risk to the operator or other workers from installation or the use of the work equipment, should be periodically inspected.
Where the work equipment is of a type where the safe operation is critically dependant on its condition in use and deterioration would lead to a significant risk to the operator or other persons, the frequency of the inspection should be based on how quickly the work equipment is likely to deteriorate and therefore give rise to significant risk
The following are for guidance:
Please note that the inspection periodicities indicated in this list are for guidance only. The risk imposed by work equipment and its performance must be evaluated by the client or by an organisation competent to do so on their behalf.
