DO I NEED A LEGIONELLA RISK ASSESSMENT?

If you are an employer or person who is in charge of premises* of any size where any customer, member of staff or the public are exposed to water, you require a Legionella Risk Assessment and a written scheme to prevent/control the risk of Legionella. Depending on the level of risk you may also decide to have a water sample taken which will be processed by a UKAS accredited laboratory.

​​

*A premise is defined as "any undertaking involving a work activity and to premises controlled in connection with a trade, business or other undertaking" (HSC Approved Code of Practice L8). Some specific examples are given below.
