Assuming a rather loose definition of "raised floor" as "machine room", then 
the statement is correct in that only people who actually need to work there 
should be there.  On the other hand, if the floor is simply raised to allow 
easy access to wiring, then it's totally appropriate.  We converted an unused 
machine room to office space and left the raised floor in place for just that 
purpose.
