Glove Hygiene

Protect Your Hands – Gloves

• Inspect your gloves prior to use
• Dirty or damaged gloves / PPE can cause injuries
• Know the performance characteristics of the gloves you are wearing.
• Store gloves in a clean area outside of fume hoods and away from equipment that could potentially contaminate them.
• Always remove gloves before touching common use items such as phones, doorknobs and computers. This will prevent contamination of unprotected individuals.
