·
These are to be used when
direct hand contact with food is necessary e.g. Ready-to-eat foods, such as salads and sandwiches; food that
is not later cooked
·
Disposable
gloves must be changed when they become contaminated, soiled or torn, or when
the food service worker leaves the food preparation area. They should also be
changed frequently to minimize build-up of perspiration and bacteria inside the
glove.
·
Disposable
gloves worn during preparation of raw foods, such as uncooked meat and poultry,
must not be used to prepare ready-to-eat food. Use raw food gloves just for raw
foods and ready-to-eat food gloves just for those foods.
·
Ready to
eat grill foods, a glove can be worn on the hand that is used to prepare
ready-to-eat ingredients, leaving the other hand uncovered for placing raw
ingredients on the grill.
·
Heavy duty plastic gloves are provided for
washing up and cleaning duties.
·
IMPORTANT – Gloves do
not replace the need for frequent hand
washing
because it is effective in reducing
contamination.
