Legionella risk assessments ensure that water systems are thoroughly evaluated, enabling conscientious businesses to devise an effective management strategy. Conducting legionella risk assessments to prevent microbiological threats is not only good practice, but is a legal requirement across many industries relying on the use of water systems.
Safeguarding the health of personnel from microbiological threats is a significant responsibility. Leaving people at risk of exposure is a prosecutable offense, regardless of whether any individuals contract Legionnaires’ disease.
An outbreak of legionnaire’ disease where the source of infection is traced back to a specific system a complete review of the control measures, records and practice will be investigated. The risk assessment will need to be reviewed to see whether the control measures were being followed correctly and what changes and improvements can be made to prevent any further outbreaks and to reduce the risk to an unacceptable level.
