[QUOTE="8Keys, post: 1182338, member: 48236"] Talk to your DM preferably or else sort manager about this policy and calmly express safety concerns. Numerous health problems can be caused by people trying to "hold it" for extended periods of time. Making you wait "until break" to use bathroom or drink water is an OSHA violation, although it is not explicitly spelled out in the regulations. This issue should have been fixed by today, to be honest, because I can't believe that corporate would support this policy and risk calls to OSHA. Rather someone in your local management team has tried to have a genius idea and overstepped his bounds. Having to notify your sup so he can cover your position is reasonable. However, it doesn't give him the right to do the work himself. You should have sufficient staffing within your area to cover any urgent position long enough for someone to use the bathroom. But that's another issue entirely. [/QUOTE]
