Question

You are the safety manager for a construction project that is building a three plex building for a new medical arts center. The stage of the project is that workers are now under roof, constructing interior walls, installing utilities, elevators and stairs, and doorway entrances. There are 4 port-a-john portable restrooms each containing 1 urinal and 1 toilet. Besides having hand sanitizer inside each portable restroom, there is a portable handwashing station outside of and adjacent to each pair of port-a-johns. Each of these set up pairs and hand wash stations are located outside of the building one at the north entrance and one at the south entrance. There are around 40 workers on site each day. A Union safety representative contacted the Union President Bill Jonston. Mr. Jonston called the CEO of the general contractor who employs you. Mr. Jonston claims that the port-a-johns are not kept clean and orderly and this constitutes an OSHA violation. He warns that if the port-a-johns are not immediately cleaned out and serviced and kept in that condition, he will inform Kentucky OSHA and request an inspection. The CEO, Gene Kilmann has called you and wants you to report back to him in.
