Water Hygiene Management Policy

Housing 21 recognises that it has a duty to protect employees, residents, visitors, and the general public who may come into contact with the water systems it manages. The organisation will take all reasonable precautions to ensure the water storage systems within its control are safe and to prevent or control the harmful effects of contaminated water (i.e., Legionella) to residents, employees and other persons working at or using its premises.

This Policy sets out Housing 21’s commitment to meeting its obligations as a responsible person under all relevant legislation and statutory guidance (S.6), to provide safe homes for our
residents, safe workplaces for our employees and ensure the safety of visitors.
