Following recent press news regarding a prosecution based on a defective risk assessment and questioning the quality of risk assessments currently in existence, the WMSoc has released a checklist. This was developed by the Legionella Control Association for use by its assessors on site visits and has been modified by the WMSoc in light of current concerns. The WMSoc offers this document as an aid to companies carrying out legionella surveys on water systems to ensure that they are providing a thorough and comprehensive service, it can also help building managers and operators judge whether any risk assessment that has been carried out on their behalf is likely to be suitable and sufficient.
