This Code of Practice (COP) takes the reader through the processes needed to develop water safety plans (WSP) for all types of water systems and equipment associated with buildings which have the potential to cause harm to human health. It is written in such a way that owner-managers of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) will understand what is required for relatively simple water systems within a small business as well as those responsible for water safety within large organizations or those with more complex water systems such as in healthcare premises. It describes a systematic approach to identifying the hazards (situations or agents which can cause harm) and hazardous events which can lead to hazards being present and/or increasing to concentrations which can cause harm, so all potential risks from water are identified and managed.All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
