Legal Question in Employment Law in Texas

My employer has forbidden me from using the restroom at the office. He, instead, makes me go tot he local fast food establishment across the street. I had to have my gall bladder removed and this makes it imperative for me to have immediate access to a restroom. I have had more than one "close call" trying to get to a bathroom in time. Can he do this?

This is in violation of OSHA and most likely your state laws. You should consider filing an OSHA complaint if he doesn't comply once you bring to his attention the requirements of the law.
