Lavatory Faucet
What are the OSHA regulations on hot water in bathrooms office building?
What are the OSHA regulations regarding hot water in bathrooms office building? I work in a very nice office building. The lavs are very modern with self-flushing toilets and automatic faucets and paper towel dispensers. The problem is that with automatic faucets (ie, the unit senses your hands under the nozzle and turns the water) water has to run for a long time before the warm / hot water is dispensed. Recently I waited six minutes for hot water to finally arrive at the supplier (And personally, I have no need to wait six minutes for hot water every time I use the LAV). I got in touch with our facilities department said they were investigating. The problem was not corrected. In our current climate of disease and illness, and major concerns about the flu, I have hot water for washing hands after using the bathroom. Is this a violation of OSHA regulations?
Yes, you have the regs 1910.141 (d) (2) (ii) Each toilet must have running water hot and cold or warm water. Note that hot / cold or warm. I bet the owner of the building will claim you are getting warm. In short words "hot" is not mandatory, but never OSHA defines these temperatures or how long to wait. You can call your local health department. They have its own set of rules. For food establishments, there will be a requirement, but perhaps not for buildings in general.
