Inadequate management, lack of training and poor communication have all been identified as contributory factors in outbreaks of Legionnaires' disease.
It is therefore important that all Procedures and Processes employed, including all Contingency Procedures, are scheduled in the Site’s Code of Practice “The Written Scheme”.
The Policy Document allows for a record of the "Responsible Persons Team" and its members’ direct responsibility requirements to be drawn-up and followed.
We can design, prepare and implement bespoke and site specific Code of Practice Manuals, which usually include detailed information on:
- Aim – The Policy
- The name, position and location
information of the person(s) appointed
as the “Responsible Person(s)
- Legionnaires' Disease - An overview
- Safe Water Temperatures – An overview
- Current Legislation
- Management Responsibilities and
Competence of Personnel
- The Course of Action in an “incident”
- Major Contingency - Emergency Plan
- Time plans of scheduled works or
continuing operational procedures
- System Operational Procedures and PPM Schedules
- System Design, Operation and Maintenance Criteria
- Reporting and Logging Procedures and Formats
- Training requirements
- Auditing processes
Over the years we produced many effective Policies for various organisations, which are used successfully in the Management & Control of Legionnaires’ Disease and Safe Water Temperatures Management.
