Believe it or not, standards for restroom usage are set by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. OSHA permits employers to set reasonable limits on restroom usage. In some work environments, such as retail, factory positions, and elementary and secondary education, employees are required to request permission to use the restroom and to secure a replacement for their area while they are using the restroom. Some employers do document usage by notating swipe cards used to enter bathrooms.
