  Welfare
  ■ Are toilets readily available and are they kept clean and
  properly lit?
  ■ Are there washbasins, hot and cold (or warm) running water,
  soap and towels?
  ■ Are the washbasins large enough to wash up to the elbow
  and are they kept clean?
  ■ Is there somewhere to change, dry and store clothing?
  ■ Are drinking water and cups provided?
  ■ Is there a place where workers can sit, make hot drinks and
  prepare food?
  ■ Can everyone who needs to use them get to the welfare
  facilities easily and safely?
  ■ Are welfare facilities kept warm and well ventilated?

  Worth noting only 'legally' relevant to fixed site jobs - otherwise it's local BP garages etc ;-)

  Robin if you have more than 5 people on any site for a length of time you have to provide adequate welfare facilities. Maybe a mess container with kitchen, toilet, dry room and space for people to eat.

  Its quite relevant i reckon.
