This online course is designed to provide Legionella awareness with a specific focus on food manufacturing environments, and to answer the questions most frequently posed by food manufacturing technical and quality professionals. Delegates will learn what Legionella is and why they need to know about it. They will gain an awareness of where Legionella bacteria can be found, including within food processing equipment, how risks are assessed, and can be controlled.
We will discuss UK legal requirements and responsibilities with respect to Legionella, how monitoring of Legionella controls is carried out, and the significance of test results. The training provides an introduction to the control of Legionella bacteria in water systems and is suitable awareness training for any food manufacturing professional. It is particularly aimed at food manufacturing Technical and Quality personnel, who may seek to align their awareness of Legionella control with their own understanding of microbiology and safe operation of food processing equipment.
Note: This Legionella awareness training is not on its own sufficient for the needs of the Statutory Duty Holder, or persons appointed as the Responsible Person, though of course they may find it of interest. Individuals in the roles of Responsible Person or Duty Holder require a deeper understanding of legionella management, control measures, and legal responsibilities, so are advised to attend an advanced City & Guilds accredited course designed for the purpose.
