The  ACoP L8 ‘the Control of Legionella Bacteria in Water Systems’ provides comprehensive guidance and advice on the requirements of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974. This code of practice if followed correctly will help to minimise the risk of contracting illness caused by the Legionella bacteria. 

 

OHS have a depth of knowledge in all aspects of Legionella management across the UK and Ireland. We have experience in all major sectors from public to commercial and industrial. Our regional network of offices enables us to efficiently manage legionella control from single site businesses to major national multi   building contracts running into thousands of sites.

 

The introduction of our trademarked Legionella Knowledge Chain process into your business will provide a clear, systematic, and consistent route through the sometimes complex world of Legionella related legislation and compliance.
