U.S. poultry plant workers are routinely denied adequate washroom breaks, leading some to wear diapers on the job, anti-poverty group Oxfam America says in a report. Workers report waiting anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour to be able to leave the production line to go to the washroom, Oxfam said. "[Workers] restrict intake of liquids and fluids to dangerous degrees; they endure pain and discomfort while they worry about their health and job security. And they are in danger of serious health problems," the group said in its report. "The situation strikes women particularly hard. They face biological realities such as menstruation, pregnancy, and higher vulnerability to infections; and they struggle to maintain their dignity and privacy when requesting breaks," Oxfam said.
