What the petition asks
Bus drivers require the toilet the same as anyone in any profession , but we seem to be left out we need to scramble to find a toilet as most terminal points have no toilets , this is unacceptable in this day and age parliament need to look at this and realise we need proper facilities for the job.
Give bus drivers the same right as everyone else , provide toilets and sanitation points at each terminal points for both male & female drivers , having to rush looking for a toilet is not good enough in this day and age , give bus drivers the respect and rights they deserve as we carry out key duties for the public all year round , without bus drivers most people would not be able to get to school , work , social events etc . Some drivers gave illnesses i.e chron's , IBS etc we need more help .
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.
Decisions about the provision of toilets are a matter for individual businesses, not the UK Government or Parliament.
Employers are already required to make suitable and sufficient sanitary conveniences available. You can read more about requirements for workplaces to provide sanitary conveniences here: https://www.hse.gov.uk/contact/faqs/toilets.htm
