​

Wash hands when you get to work (before reporting to the work station) and before leaving for the day. Also, wash hands after doing any of the following:

​

• Removing gloves.

• Using washroom – be sure to wash hands in the washroom and again at the workstation.

• Handling raw chicken and other raw or unrinsed food.

• Getting coater onto wrists or forearms. (Be sure to wash hands at the hand sink near the breading table.)

• Handling garbage.

• Cleaning any area of the Restaurant.

• Sneezing, coughing, or using a tissue.

• Touching hair, face, body, clothing, or apron.

• Touching cellphone.

• Taking a break, eating, drinking, chewing gum, or smoking.

• Touching anything that could contaminate hands (for example, refrigerator, equipment, door, soiled towel, or boxes).

​

To help prevent cross-contamination, be sure to always wash hands when going from one task to another and when changing gloves.
