Bathroom breaks are typically considered to be personal time for employees, and as such, are not regulated by the state of California. However, that doesn’t mean that an employee can use the restroom frequently without any repercussions from their employer.

They provided more toilets for men “because it was seen that men were out and about, going to work, and it was considered improper for women to be out on their own or to encourage it.

Sanitation includes access to clean water, toilets, and waste management facilities. The Victorians realised this. Clara Greed, an emerita professor of inclusive urban planning at the University of the West of England and a public loo researcher, says that public toilets really took off, “in the 19th century, particularly about the 1870s, where there was this massive public health movement to improve sewage and drainage and water supply, particularly because of cholera”.

If your toilet is flushing on its own, it’s probably because the flapper isn’t creating a watertight seal. This is called ghost flushing, and it’s a waste of water. To fix it, you’ll need to replace the flapper. Throughout this comprehensive guide, we have explored the importance of clear communication in public spaces, discussed key design elements and printing considerations, and provided tips for proper placement and display. By implementing these recommendations, you can contribute to a well-maintained, user-friendly environment that enhances the experience of visitors and promotes a sense of comfort and safety. Everyone has the right to sanitation, and this right must be protected by law. States have a responsibility to ensure that everyone has access to sanitation, and to take steps to progressively realize this right. In previous centuries, she points out, public toilets were bequeathed by rich philanthropists. “It hasn’t become as respectable [now],” she says. “I once had an interesting conversation with a royal equerry. I said, would there be a member of the royal family who you think could support this? He said: ‘Never’. Why is it so embarrassing? How come we can talk about anything else and not toilets? Why would they think they’d be laughed at? Hopefully we wouldn’t, but being British we might.” Public toilets could be designed by the best architects and become attractions in their own right, she says. Adebowale was diagnosed 10 years ago, when he was 16, and has noticed public loos disappearing in that time. “Places where I might have known from my teen years to have a toilet, now don’t. So it’s a lot harder. I have to try to find up-to-date information for a place I haven’t been for a while to see if the toilet still exists.”

In some places, the local community has taken over the running of public loos. “I think they’re absolutely wonderful,” says Martin, of the local residents who run facilities, “but I don’t think it’s right.” It’s the same for schemes whereby businesses, such as cafes, and community organisations are paid to allow the public to use their loos – good in principle, but it can vary by area, opening hours may not be ideal and the toilets may not be accessible. Martin wants to see a statutory requirement, and funding, for public toilets. In the meantime, he says, “we’ve got to stop the closures. And get the toilets that are still available – about 2,600 that we know of – up to spec.”

While the intention is good and, if done properly, should cater for everyone, in practice it has sometimes meant little more than switching the sign on the door. Rather than starting again and building private self-contained cubicles – which would benefit everyone, including trans people, parents with children, disabled people, those who need help, men who find gents’ toilets intimidating places – often women find they are sharing their spaces with men, while men also retain access to the loos containing urinals.

To ensure that your sign is easily seen and understood, it is crucial to place it in a prominent location. Depending on the restroom’s layout and door type, this may mean attaching the sign directly to the door or stall, or posting it nearby at eye level.
