We’ve all seen the ‘crazy’ health and safety photos such as the worker on the A-frame ladder in the swimming pool whilst drilling into the ceiling above! Well, this presentation is along the same lines, albeit with water safety and those things that we’ve discovered, found, and observed whilst advising clients in recent years.

The content includes:

- Design and Install
- Components
- Safety of systems & Contamination
- Monitoring & Records

## Best practice for controlling Legionella

This session, delivered by Pete Tyson to IOSH Merseyside takes a look at the importance of how to get things right at the design stage [or not] through to the correct components [or not] to be used and need to monitoring correctly and keep suitable records [or not].

 

Using photo evidence of those ‘or not’ elements will highlight to clients practical approaches to water safety for their organisation…
