According to recent research many businesses in the UK aren’t adhering to the minimum standards when it comes to office toilets. Employees are facing long queues for the cubicles and unsatisfactory washroom facilities, which has an effect on our country’s bottom line.
Initial Washroom Hygiene found that 20% of small businesses are not meeting the legal requirements for the minimum number of toilets they have in their offices. Additionally, according to research, over 50% of those surveyed said that they regularly had to wait to use the toilet facilities at work (wasting over 5 hours a year of productivity) and 20% commented on how unhappy they were with the general facility standards.
Poor restroom facilities not only decrease productivity but office morale can also go down the pan. Even worse, customers have also been known to comment on the state of companies’ toilets; 3% of the study admitted losing business as a result of this.
