[QUOTE="Integrity, post: 5348441, member: 26800"] If the local management of any UPS facility fails in the OSHA requirement regarding the provision of water every day IMO this is a “whistle blower worthy” issue on each and every day UPS fails to fulfill their obligation under OSHA, based upon my opinion, based upon my interpretation. OSHA requires that employees shall have access to potable drinking water that is to be fresh, pure, suitably cool, and provided to employees free of charge. The water shall be located as close as practicable to the areas where employees are working. [B]Where drinking water is not plumbed or otherwise continuously supplied, it shall be provided in sufficient quantity at the beginning of the work shift to provide one quart per employee per hour for drinking for the entire shift. Employers may begin the shift with smaller quantities of water if they have effective procedures for replenishment during the shift as needed to allow employees to drink one quart or more per hour. [/B] The frequent drinking of water, as described in subsection (h)(1)(C), shall be encouraged. [/QUOTE]
