MoM simplifies lifting equipment tests for businesses

This will provide flexibility by allowing occupiers to appoint competent persons.

The Ministry of Manpower (MoM) will remove periodic overload testing requirements after lifting equipment registration to strengthen workplace safety and health standards, whilst reducing costs.

This will provide flexibility by allowing occupiers to appoint competent persons or continue with Authorised Examiners to conduct periodic Lifting Gear re-examinations.

Authorised Examiners will still be required for critical inspections such as before first use and after major repairs.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
