WORKERS are being forced to urinate into bottles and buckets and defecate into plastic bags because they have no access to toilets at work, the TUC warns.
A survey of more than 4,000 workers in TUC-affiliated unions, published today, revealed the scant attention given by some employers to workers’ needs for toilet access.
The TUC said the issue not only caused workers’ stress but also created health and hygiene problems.
