    This European Standard specifies safety requirements for operating of classified pools according to clause 4. It is intended for those concerned with the operation and management of classified swimming pools. It pro-vides guidance about the risks for staff and users associated with public swimming pools, by identifying the precautions needed to achieve safety.
