Is It Considered Retaliation If A Company Makes Access To Water Harder After An Employee Asks For Hr's Number?

Location: Ohio

Using a throwaway.

The title is the basic legal question', but here are the details. I work a physically demanding job and have a medical condition that makes it so I need to drink a certain amount of water a day, throughout the day. My place of work a month ago made it so that everyone needs a certain kind of water bottle to allow it in the work area. One manager said the kind i have doesnt fit the new rules, but another manager said it does. In the middle of them arguing, one of them picked my bottle up and took it to the break room. The Problem with that is I am already on work restrictions due to having surgery on my leg and having to go back and forth to the break room would make doing my job very difficult, as It's on the other side of a large warehouse. I ended up asking for the HR employee relation number because when the one manager said I could just take my bottle back to my work area, the other manager again began arguing.

Fast forward to less than a week later and the manager's manager sends out a mass message stating that no one is allowed to have any water bottles or cups at all on the floor and everything must be in the break room now and today during work I heard one coworker ask a manager why that is and they said it was because "someone threatened to call HR, so now no one can have anything".
