Legionella awareness is important for workplaces that manage water systems, building services, facilities, or environments where stagnant water, warm temperatures, and aerosols may create health risks. Poor control can contribute to serious illness, operational disruption, and compliance concerns. This course explains what Legionella is, relevant legal responsibilities, hazardous environments, risk assessment processes, control measures, and post-Covid considerations for managing water safety risks in occupied or returning-to-use workplaces. Learners will understand how to recognize potential Legionella hazards, support risk assessment activity, follow control procedures, and contribute to safer workplace water management in their roles. Certification is provided upon successful completion of the course.
