Independent Legionella Control Consultancy
Water Hygiene Consultants is built around over 23 years of first-hand experience in legionella control across the UK. That expertise is offered as an independent consultancy service, on a fee basis, rather than as a self-delivering contractor. Legionella remedial works are necessary to reduce the risk from Legionnaires’ Disease and other waterborne bacteria.
Clients engage us to manage their remedial programme from risk assessment through to sign-off, coordinating competent, vetted operatives to ensure your water systems are brought safely into compliance.
What you are responsible for
As an employer, or a person in control of the premises, you are responsible for health and safety. As a result you must take the right precautions to reduce the risks of exposure to legionella. You must understand how to:
- identify and assess sources of risk
- manage any risks
- prevent or control any risks
- keep and maintain the correct records
- carry out any other duties you may have
Legionella Risk Assessment
We offer legionella risk assessments, however, if you have already had a legionella risk assessment completed and you are looking for legionella control works to be done we can help.
Legionella Risk Assessment Should Include;
- management responsibilities, including the name of the competent person and a description of your system
- competence and training of key personnel
- any identified potential risk sources
- any means of preventing the risk or controls in place to control risks
- monitoring, inspection and maintenance procedures
- records of the monitoring results and inspection and checks carried out
- arrangements to review the risk assessment regularly, particularly when there is reason to suspect it is no longer valid
Legionella Control Scheme
Following a legionella risk assessment, if you identify a risk that you are unable to prevent, you must introduce a legionella control scheme. This is a list of the necessary legionella remedial works you must do to help you to manage the risk from legionella by implementing effective control measures.
