The legislative requirement -Legionaires disease is a potentially fatal pneumonia caused by legionella bacteria. It is the most well-known and serious form of diseases known as legionellosis.

Legionella bacteria are common in natural water courses such as rivers and ponds. Since legionella are widespread in the environment, they may contaminate and grow in other water systems such as cooling towers and hot and cold water services.

Under general health and safety law the risks have to be considered that may affect employer’s staff and general members of the public. Suitable precautions must be applied to assess the potential risk.
