HUMAN HANDS CAN CONTAIN MILLIONS OF MICROORGANISMS, AND COMBINED WITH A GLOVE PUNCTURE, A “LIQUID BRIDGE” OF MICROBIAL CONTAMINATION CAN FLOW TO FOOD.     WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN? 1. Incorrect hand hygiene practices. 2. putting on and removing gloves.  Proper glove usage  reduces    cross-contamination between a worker’s skin, gloves and food. 3.

Unfortunately, the powdered cornstarch in gloves can be a potential hazard for workplaces, as the powder can act as a carrier for airborne particles and cause contamination of the workplace, materials, and...
