[QUOTE="Integrity, post: 5350033, member: 26800"] Instead of asking that would you be willing to ask the following: You can start off with something like this: In an effort to prevent heat related illnesses and injuries to UPS Drivers while on route I have a few questions: 1. Is it an OSHA requirement that UPS Driver’s have access to potable drinking water that is fresh, pure, suitably cool and it be provided free of charge while they are out on their delivery route for the day? 2. Since it is a requirement that the water shall be located as close as practicable to the areas where employees are working and for the UPS Package Car Driver the Package Car is the obvious practical area to locate the drinking water and since drinking water is not plumbed or otherwise continuously supplied on a UPS Package Car; is UPS required to supply a sufficient quantity of drinking water at the beginning of the work shift to provide one quart per employee per hour for drinking for the entire shift? 3. What are the OSHA accepted means for UPS to supply a sufficient quantity of drinking water on a UPS Package Car at the beginning of the work shift to provide one quart per employee per hour for drinking for the entire shift? If you do ask them, please ask the OSHA compliance officer exactly as the are written and please write down exactly what they say. Let me know if you are willing to do this. [/QUOTE]
