Large water pipe burst last night. Luckily we've not been affected at home but nursery where DD works has. No running water so no children in but they have made all the staff go in and clean (not sure what they're cleaning with as there's no water).
I thought legally they had to provide running water or at least bottled water and toilets.They haven't done either just told the staff to go to the shop if they want water (no toilet as the shop doesn't have running water either). Why are these places open with no water?
DDs nursery is part of a chain so surely they could send the staff to other settings if they want them working. They won't because they want the staff there incase the water comes back on even though it probably won't be until late afternoon.
AIBU to say this is a terrible way to treat staff? Is it even legal?
