Question: 1 / 400

If a food handler wears disposable gloves, then:

Hands do not need to be washed

Hands still need to be washed before putting on new gloves

Food handlers should wash their hands before putting on new gloves. While wearing disposable gloves can help prevent cross-contamination, it is not a substitute for proper hand washing. Hands should be washed before putting on gloves, after changing gloves, and anytime gloves are torn or become contaminated. Option A is incorrect because hands still need to be washed regardless of wearing gloves. Option C is incorrect because gloves do not replace the necessity of hand washing. Option D is incorrect because hands should be washed multiple times throughout a shift, not just at the end.
