The pub attached has a toilet available but it takes over 15 minutes to close the store down to use this facility and my management has said to ring the pub to get someone over to watch the store while I go toilet. the pub staff have recently been told not to come over as they are not covered by health and safety. what are my options? are they allowed to have a workplace without toilet facilities because this is very common in this area. girls also work in this environment without access to a toilet. it is common for people to work over 8 hours without anyone to cover the workplace to take a toilet break. please help, there is no way to contact my work without my identity known, and last time i questioned a procedure i nearly lost my job cheers Hi, I work in a drive through liquor store.
