Adequate Handwashing/Where/When/HowcriticalInspector note: Observed no hand washing during inspection (Manager took corrective action and will continue to train and monitor employee hand washing - gloves being worn continuously - • Gloves are task specific and should NEVER be worn continuously. They get contaminated just as bare hands do so change them out frequently. • Wash your hands properly in between these changes i.e. (a 20 second scrub with soap warm water and don’t forget to dry off with a clean paper towel). • Gloves are not a stand-alone protective barrier. As mentioned above they are not 100% effective but when combined with proper hand washing they significantly reduce the possibility of contaminating your customer’s food. • Gloves can still cross-contaminate. Don’t touch the ready-to-eat food if you have just handled a raw piece of meat or eggs. Throw away the gloves wash your hands and put on a new pair. • If you touch a dirty surface with your glove (hair nose clothing floor equipment or utensils) the glove is dirty and you need to change them after washing your hands. • Bacteria from your skin continue to grow while underneath the gloves and that is why it is important to wash between handling the new gloves. Don’t pre-contaminate your gloves. • Non-latex gloves are recommended in Massachusetts. Keep a box of gloves in a readily accessible area. Perhaps by the hand wash sink. Being careful not to contaminate them here either. • Gloves used for food contact should not be used for money trash cleaning of soiled surfaces
