Details
A short Online Legionella Safety Training course providing an overview of the hazardous and risks associated with Legionella and the precautions which should be adopted by though with responsibility for the management of Legionella risks.
Our Legionella course is a 45 minute online training course that provides an overview of the risks associated with water systems and how to work safely with them to help minimise the hazards associated with Legionella. The Legionella courses communicates preventative and control measures to help persons avoid harmful exposure.
Cases of Legionnaires’ disease, caused by the legionella bacteria, are fortunately rare. However, when they occur, they can be fatal to vulnerable people, as well as having the potential to affect a large number of individuals in the right environments. As well as having the potential to kill, Legionella outbreaks can also be extremely expensive to deal with and damaging to both organisations and to individual managers.
To meet your obligations under the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Regulations (2002), the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations (1999) and the Health and Safety at Work Act (1974) you need to have assessed the Legionella risk from your water systems, including hot and cold water, evaporative cooling and other plant such as vehicle washers and irrigation equipment. You need to have a written scheme which describes what competent people are doing to manage the Legionella risks. Even if someone is tasked with simply running the taps once a week, they should understand why this could be a vital part of keeping people safe from exposure to Legionella.
Our Legionella course outlines typical water management tasks, and helps employees understand why each task is important and how it reduces the Legionella risks. As well as looking at what happens when organisations do not safely manage their water systems, employees will be shown how the jobs they have been asked to do will break the chain of events that can lead to a death from Legionnaires’ disease.
