What do you need to do?

Under general health and safety law, as an employer or person in control of a premises (e.g. a landlord), you have health and safety responsibilities and need to take suitable precautions to prevent or control the risk of exposure to legionella bacteria.

The first stage in the process is carrying out a Legionella or Water Hygiene Risk Assessment. Carrying out a risk assessment is your responsibility, required by law and will help you to establish any potential risks and implement measures to either eliminate or control risks.
