-
- PURPOSE In the past, employees were permitted to make
- trips to the bathroom under informal guidelines.
- Effective December 31, 1990, a Restroom Trip Poli-
- cy (RTP) will be established to provide a
- consistent method of accounting for each
- employee's restroom time and ensuring equal treat-
- ment of all employees.
-
- POLICY It is the policy of the county government to pro-
- vide fair and equal restroom time for all employ-
- ees. Under this policy, a "Restroom Trip Bank"
- will be established for each employee. The first
- day of each month, employees will be given twenty
- (20) Restroom Trip Credits. Restroom Trip Credits
- may be accumulated from month to month.
-
-
- EXCEPTIONS Pregnant employees (male or female) will be given
- forty (40) Restroom Trip Credits (RTC) per month.
-
- DEFINITIONS None
-
- PROCEDURE Currently the entrances to all restrooms are being
- equipped with personnel identification stations
- and computer-linked voice print recognition devic-
- es. During the next two (2) weeks, each employee
- must provide two (2) copies of voice prints (one
- normal, one under stress) to Personnel Services.
- The Voice Print Recognition Stations will be oper-
- ational, but not restrictive for the month of
- September; employees should acquaint themselves
- with the stations during that period.
-
- If an employee's Restroom Trip Bank balance reach-
- es zero (0), the doors to all restrooms will re-
- main locked for that employee's voice until the
- first of next month when the employee receives
- his/her next 20/40 credits.
-

-
-
-
-
- In addition, all restroom stalls are being
- equipped with timed paper-roll retractors. If the
- stall is occupied for more than three minutes, an
- alarm will sound. Thirty seconds after the alarm
- sounds, the roll of paper in the stall will re-
- tract, the toilet will flush, and the stall door
- will open.
-
- LIABILITY It is the responsibility of all management person-
- nel to ensure understanding and compliance with
- this policy.
