Working in a food storage factory, can anyone tell me how many toilets and which facilities are required to comply with the BRC standards?
When alterations to the factory are made next year we will only have 1 toilet cubical in a room with a urinal, off the main tearoom. This is a mixed use toilet.
There are on average 8 men and 1 lady on site daily. There has a potential to be more than 12 men on site and between 2 and 4 ladies depending on the time of year and what contractors are on site working.
The only ladies changing facility and personal locker is located in a seperate building (seperate company) at the opposite end of the yard, meaning a 10minute walk outside in the food safe clothing, before reaching the work place factory. (no matter what the weather). This is also the distance that will need to be travelled to have access to personal belongings on a tea break.
Any information on standards and expectations on showering facilities for the ladies would be greatly appreciated.
