Who Can Complete a Legionella Risk Assessment?

Written by IWC Innovations | Aug 25, 2020

There are various factors that go into the completion of a proper Legionella Risk Assessment. Legionella Risk Assessments (also referred to as Legionella Water Management Programs or Legionella Water Management Plans) identify hazardous conditions and include taking steps to minimize the growth and spread of Legionella in building water systems. Having a Legionella Risk Assessment is now an industry standard for large buildings in the United States. Your assessment may also fall under mandates at your local or state level. It is always pertinent to research these in specifics.

 

The first step in a CDC Legionella Risk Assessment is to establish a water management program team. Your program team should have the proper skills to develop and implement your assessment. In some cases, you may need to train your in-house personnel or hire professionals with specific environmental and Legionella experience. An expert in this field is is someone who has obtained ASSE 12080 Water Safety and Management Specialist certification.   Decide who among your employees, partners and outside experts can provide these skills so you can develop the most effective assessment possible.
