Gloves can actually be less sanitary.
How so?
I think there was a study that confirmed it too. The main factor being you’re more likely to feel and wash a soiled hand than change a soiled glove.
They can get caught in the conveyor and pieces could get into the sandwiches. I don't wear gloves when milling metals with harsh coolants cause the loose material can get caught and rip a finger off suddenly.
Gloves and mills/lathes are totally a bad combo I agree - if shit gets caught you can easily lose an appendage. But that’s not really a hygiene issue.
I get the contamination risk, but again not really a hygiene issue.
Is there truth to the statement that no gloves can be more sanitary?
Milling metals is totally different from making sandwiches.
Also you shouldn't be wearing loose material around moving machinery. It'll do more than take a finger.
