Culturally Diverse Welfare Facilities

LoadingAdd to my saved searches

To ensure that cultural diversity is catered for on the BioCork 2 site, a ‘squat toilet’ was installed.

The Carpenter on site made a carcass for the squat toilet to be encased. A waterproof anti-slip covering was then installed. The unit then was plumbed in and a hose was installed in case users may not use toilet paper.

Earlier in the project, a gender neutral toilet was also installed to provide a safer and more welcoming space for someone who may be transgender or may not identify with the male or female gender binary.

Benefits include:

  • Recognising the needs for a diverse workforce
  • Providing additional facilities for a diverse workforce
  • Promoting the culture of acceptance and inclusion
