The dangers of the legionella bacteria are well documented and businesses should be more aware that in addition to endangering life an outbreak of the disease can lead to criminal prosecution of the employers.

ECGFS clients who use the services of our specialist Water Hygiene Division, staffed by dedicated and experienced operatives fully approved to HSE AC0PL8, can readily conduct full risk assessments – legally required under the Health & Safety at Work Act and COSHH regulation – and thereafter test, service and maintain this crucial plant and equipment. Controlling risks with professional, pre-emptive and protective management is more than possible – it’s vital.

ECGFS are happy to carry out an assessment on any aspect of your water hygiene at any time.
