Are Legionella Risk Assessments Mandatory?
In the UK, conducting Legionella risk assessments is indeed a mandatory requirement for all premises where water is used or stored, and there’s a potential for aerosol generation. This legal obligation is outlined under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and further detailed in the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 (COSHH). These regulations mandate that employers and those in control of premises, including landlords, facility managers, and management companies, must assess and manage the risks posed by Legionella bacteria to ensure the safety of staff and the public.
