Hi , hope everyone had a amazing Easter Break. I am currently working on Activity 3 Q5 ... Explain expectations with regard to clothing and footwear for food handling. (80 words).
Am I on the right track with my answer below
Correct clothing is important when handling foods. It acts as personal protection and contributes to hygienic requirements.
When handling food it is required that staff wear the appropriate clothing / footwear to help not only guard themselves against accidents , but to also lessen the risk of food contamination
Workers are expected to wear hairnets , long hair is also required to be tired back . Aprons should be changed when they become dirty. Enclosed shoes should be sturdy and comfortable with a non slip sole. Loose clothing is not recommended as it can become caught on equipment, trousers offer better protection and can be easily removed in the event hot liquids are spilt on them .
Thank you
