The technical bit…
Legionella Risk Management addresses the requirements of the Approved Code of Practice & Guidance for the Control of Legionella Bacteria in Water Systems (L8) 2013.
As part of Legionella Risk Management, the Legionella Risk Assessment includes recommendations for required remedial actions, ongoing monitoring and control measures.
It also identifies and assesses the risk of exposure to Legionella bacteria from work activities and water systems on the premises and any necessary precautionary measures
to be undertaken. The responsible person/body should devise and implement safety measures and attend to hazards as identified in the Risk Assessment.
Communal water systems of property attract the requirements of L8. On-going management requirements should be determined by the Risk Assessment.
