Overview

Our Legionella and Water Safety course explores the characteristics of Legionella and raises awareness about how the disease is caught and transmitted, particularly in working environments.

It explores in detail what your employer’s legal responsibilities are when it comes to controlling the Legionella bacteria and offers advice on how to achieve water safety in the workplace, including monitoring lead levels in water systems.

Objectives

In this course you will learn to:

  • Recognise the characteristics of Legionella
  • Identify the legal responsibilities of an employer in controlling Legionella
  • Explain how to reduce the risk of Legionnaires’ disease
  • Summarise how lead affects water safety

About the Course

When it comes to Legionella control, a lack of training, sub-standard communication and poor water safety management are contributing factors in outbreaks of Legionnaire’s disease.

Those responsible for Legionella risk assessment and implementing a risk management policy for Legionella must be suitably trained in the appropriate control measures.

Employers have a duty of care to understand and manage Legionella risks and must comply with health and safety regulations on water safety.
