Water Safety In Buildings Toolkit (2011)
World Health Organization
This toolkit is designed to help people understand which buildings and devices need a Legionella water management program to reduce the risk for Legionnaires’ disease, the key elements of a water management program, and how to develop it. This document deals with all buildings where people use or are exposed to water, with a particular focus on buildings that include public use or shared facilities. Many of the principles also apply to sole occupancy dwellings and homes; however, it is not expected that management actions, such as the implementation of water safety plans (WSPs), will be applied in private homes.
