Swimming pools for public use - Part 2: Safety requirements for operation
Also Known As:
For the purpose of guaranteeing the security of designated swimming pools, the DIN EN 15288-2 standard specifies rules and standards. To identify and handle the dangers connected with public swimming pools, a standard was created for those responsible for their operation and maintenance.
The statement stresses the significance of taking preventative measures to ensure the safety of pool users and employees. It provides advice on a variety of pool operation-related topics, such as safe working practices, supervision, and risk management. The criterion may not be immediately applicable to pools found in rivers, lakes, or the ocean because it primarily applies to pools that are classified. It is advised to follow any municipal and federal laws that could potentially apply to pool activities.
It is significant to note that this standard does not apply to household swimming pools because EN 16582 addresses those facilities' needs. En 16582's description of home swimming pools and their intended usage is expanded upon in the standard.
