Effective legionella control is not just about systems and monitoring—it requires competent people who understand their responsibilities and how to manage risk.

At KWS Ltd, we provide legionella training and consultancy services across the UK, helping businesses, dutyholders and responsible persons understand their legal obligations and implement practical, compliant control measures in line with HSE ACoP L8, HSG274 and HTM 04-01.

Legionella Awareness Training

Our legionella awareness training is designed for staff involved in the day-to-day management of water systems. It provides a clear understanding of how legionella bacteria develops, how it spreads, and the control measures required to reduce risk.

The training is practical and easy to follow, focusing on real-world application rather than theory. It supports those carrying out routine tasks such as temperature monitoring, flushing and basic water hygiene duties, helping ensure that control measures identified in your Legionella Risk Assessments are implemented correctly.

Duty Holder & Responsible Person Training

We provide tailored training for Duty Holders and Responsible Persons, ensuring they fully understand their legal responsibilities under ACoP L8 and COSHH regulations.

This training focuses on:

  • Legal duties and accountability
  • Understanding risk assessments and written schemes
  • Managing contractors and service providers
  • Record keeping and compliance requirements

It is particularly valuable for those overseeing **Water Hygiene Monitoring Services and ensuring ongoing compliance across their organisation.

Management & Compliance Training

Our management-level legionella training is designed for senior staff responsible for compliance, estates management or health and safety. This covers the strategic side of legionella control, including:

  • Interpreting risk assessments and prioritising actions
  • Implementing and reviewing written schemes of control
  • Understanding when to carry out **Water Sampling & Analysis
  • Managing remedial works and contractors
  • Preparing for audits and inspections

The aim is to give management teams confidence that systems are being controlled effectively and compliantly.

Legionella Consultancy Services

In addition to training, KWS Ltd provides expert legionella consultancy services to support clients with more complex requirements.

This includes:

  • Development and review of written schemes of control
  • Advice on system design and compliance improvements
  • Support following failed sampling results or incidents
  • Independent technical advice on **Cleaning & Disinfection Services and system upgrades
  • Ongoing consultancy for multi-site or higher-risk environments

We take a practical, no-nonsense approach—providing clear guidance that is easy to implement rather than overcomplicated reports.
