Restrooms and locker/shower room guidelines
WashU Medicine’s guideline is that all employees are permitted to use the facilities that correspond with their gender identity. For example, a person who identifies as a man is permitted to use men’s restrooms and a person who identifies as a woman is permitted to use women’s restrooms. All employees should determine the most appropriate and safest option for themselves.
WashU Medicine has provided single-occupancy, all-gender restrooms, where possible.
Any WashU Medicine employee may choose to use the all-gender restrooms, but no one, including a transgender person, is required to use them.
As with restrooms, all employees have the right to use the locker/shower room appropriate to their gender identity.
Conversations with co-workers about restroom and locker/shower room access concerns are usually best handled by the educational expert at the initial meeting as they have the experience to deal with the matter appropriately. Co-workers who still have personal concerns about sharing a restroom or locker room with a transgender individual should be invited to have an honest discussion with an appropriate manager or HR representative. In the long run, co-workers uncomfortable with sharing a restroom with a transgender individual should be the ones asked to travel to a different floor or work area to use the facilities (do not ask the transgender person to go out of their way).
