Clear steps for legionella compliance

Ensure your assessment is up-to-date

If you manage a building, for example a hospitality venue, healthcare facility, school, college, or dental practice, you already know that water safety is non‑negotiable. But staying compliant isn’t always straightforward.

Many organisations unknowingly fall out of compliance simply because their Legionella Risk Assessment (LRA) is outdated, incomplete, or no longer reflects their current systems.

This checklist helps you quickly understand where you stand and what to do next.

What’s inside the LRA compliance checklist?

A practical, easy‑to‑use guide covering:

• Key legal requirements under ACoP L8 & HSG274
• How to identify whether your current LRA is still valid
• What triggers a mandatory review
• Essential documentation you must have in place
• Common gaps that lead to non‑compliance
• Quick indicators your system may be at risk

Designed for managers with low awareness and those with higher awareness who simply haven’t reviewed their LRA recently.

Not sure if you need a new LRA?

If you’ve had:

• Building extensions or refurbishments
• System changes or new equipment
• Changes in building use or occupancy
• Long periods of low usage
• A previous LRA older than two years

…then a review may already be overdue.
