[QUOTE="browncub, post: 738503, member: 29429"] Yes, you have the right to go to the bathroom when you need to use it, not just on lunches or breaks. This right is protected under OSHA regulation 9CFR Toilet facilities.1910.141(c)(1). The second part of the rule protects drivers and other workers who don’t work at a central facility. It says drivers must have “have transportation immediately available to nearby toilet facilities.” Note the word “immediate”—OSHA says that when you gotta go, you get to go. If you have to go off your route, let management know that there are no adequate restroom facilities where you are and that you are traveling off your route to use the restroom. Document when you called, where you were, and any response from management. When you send your DIAD message, make sure you are informing them that you’re going to the bathroom—you should not ask for permission. [/QUOTE]
