Level 3 Legionella Awareness Training: Water System Safety & Contractor Management focuses on understanding and controlling the risks of Legionella bacteria in water systems. Poorly managed water systems can lead to serious health concerns, making awareness and proper management essential in many workplaces across the UK.

Legionella can grow in water systems such as cooling towers, hot and cold water systems, and storage tanks. Without proper risk management, these systems can pose health risks to employees, visitors, and the public. This course is suitable for duty holders, building managers, maintenance supervisors, and anyone responsible for overseeing water system safety or managing contractors.

This course explains how to carry out advanced risk assessments, analyse water system layouts, and identify conditions that encourage Legionella growth. Learners will explore system design principles that reduce stagnation, procedures for sampling and laboratory testing, and steps to follow during potential outbreak situations. The training also explains how to manage external contractors, set service standards, verify documentation, and conduct audits. By the end of the course, learners will understand how to support safe water system management, maintain compliance, and contribute to ongoing prevention and safety improvement.
