Legionella Risk Assessments

It is a legal duty to carry out a Legionella bacteria risk assessment and assess whether there is a risk posed by exposure to Legionella from the water systems in the premises.

“A suitable and sufficient assessment is required to identify and assess the risk of exposure to Legionella bacteria from work activities and water systems on the premises and any necessary precautionary measures.”
