Workers in the poultry industry are denied bathroom breaks and have to wear diapers a report revealed on May 11.
Oxfam America, which advocates against poverty and injustice, interviewed dozens of Tyson Foods workers in six states and found that almost all employees they talked to were denied bathroom breaks or had to wait up to an hour or more for permission to use the restroom.
The report says workers often urinate and defecate while standing on the line because they are not allowed to go to the bathroom.
Hanson, a worker at a Tyson facility in Arkansas, said he saw his own mother urinate on the line, and she now wears diapers to work to avoid it from happening again.
