Overview
The purpose of the standard is to provide training in line with the national water hygiene scheme. This training protects the safety of water through good hygiene practices while working on restricted operations as defined in the technical guidance notes. Water companies across the UK now mostly mandate the use of the National Water Hygiene card for anyone entering a clean water site or engaged in operations on the clean water network, whether in contact with the water or not.
