Drinking water analysis is included in the health legislation under the Regulation on Water Intended for Human Consumption. The Ministry of Health does not delegate authority to private institutions under this regulation.
Samples are taken and analyzed for drinking and potable water analysis from water dispensers, tanks established for water storage, wells used for water supply, water obtained by tanker, over-the-counter treatment systems, tap or mains water; in summary, from the points determined in water storage, transportation and transfer vehicles.
Drinking and potable water analysis in working environments is primarily carried out for control purposes to protect the health of employees. Drinking and potable water analysis may be requested within the scope of occupational health and safety, by the workplace physician and occupational safety specialist or for domestic and foreign customer inspection.
