This policy applies to all water systems under our control. We have a legal duty to assess and manage the risk of Legionella exposure to employees, tenants, and the public.
We must:
- identify and assess sources of risk.
- develop and implement a plan to control or eliminate the risk.
- appoint a competent responsible person to oversee the programme.
- provide appropriate training to relevant staff.
- maintain accurate records and regularly review the effectiveness of control measures.
- communicate with our tenants about Legionella risks and provide guidance and relevant signposting regarding Legionella.
