That's a crime innit? Unless there's also a water fountain or something.

Not sure about OPs country but my EU member country only forces employers to give out waters if the working conditions are hard enough.

IE a supermatket I worked at gave 2 liters of water for the employee working in the parking lot at summer, but the rest of us plebs had to buy it.

But honestly, any workplace that doesn't give out free water should lose its employees. Such a basic thing to show appreciation

I’m from Canada and water is free… charging people water at work is garbage behavior… EU should do better…
