UK businesses fear new EHRC guidance on toilets will be ‘unworkable’

The EHRC is set to release new guidance on the use of toilets and changing rooms, which has raised concerns among UK businesses. The LGBTQ+ rights charity Stonewall has written to the government, warning that the cost of compliance could be significant for struggling companies. Businesses are worried that the new guidance will be "confusing", "unworkable", and could "undermine inclusion". Stonewall has highlighted the potential financial burden on companies, especially those already facing challenges due to the pandemic. The article suggests that the proposed changes to toilet and changing room policies could have a significant impact on businesses, with concerns about the feasibility and cost of implementation. The EHRC's guidance is anticipated to be a topic of discussion between the government and the business community.
