How many people actually have showers in their workplace?

[–] reev@sh.itjust.works 23 points 10 months ago

Probably more if cities were designed around bicycles in the way they currently are around cars.

Where I live, more and more. For this specific reason.

+the fact that some other people do Real Work^TM where you get dirty and shit and need to have shower before going home. Factories and shit.

Do factories have showers where you are? We’re expected to shower when we get home

[–] uis@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Some factories are required to have at least emergency shower. Not that you want to take shower there regularly.

Well yeah though I don't to much of that, so the workplaces I know have them because of bikes.

I think even at the smallest company I've worked at, there was a shower in the building that people working at the companies there could use. First time I've really thought about it, but I guess it would be odd if a place didn't have at least one shower somewhere for the cyclists and runners. (I'm working in a British city for context)

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 10 months ago

No idea, every place I've worked in at least.

[–] GissaMittJobb@lemmy.ml 3 points 10 months ago

Pretty common to have at least one where I live, but it depends on which sector you work in for sure.

How many people actually have car storage(called parking spot by some idiot, although there are no trees) in their workplace?
