Ky. Plant Cited for Bathroom Policy

Christ. The Jim Beam distillery in Clermont instituted a bathroom policy. Workers were limited to four breaks per eight and a half hour shift. And only one of those could be unscheduled. "Just trying to keep our productivity up!" They have workers urinating on themselves, wearing Depends, and faking illnesses to go home. That's just great for productivity, I'm sure!

I have to ask if it's really wise to restrict workers' bathroom privileges in a bourbon distillery. You're just asking for someone to relieve himself in the product. My suggestion is to not drink anything from there until this is straightened out.
