Housing Technology: Are you ready for more Awaab’s Law?

This November, phase two of Awaab’s Law will expand beyond damp and mould to cover a further nine housing hazards, including excess cold, excess heat, electrical hazards, fire risks, and structural safety concerns. 

In the latest edition of Housing Technology, Lisa Gascoyne explores what phase two means for the sector and highlights four practical steps housing providers can take now to prepare. From getting the first decision right when a resident reports a concern, to ensuring all staff understand their role in compliance, the article examines how organisations can strengthen their approach while keeping residents at the heart of every decision. 

Housing providers that take action now will be better positioned to meet the new requirements, reduce risk and provide safe, comfortable and healthy homes for residents.
