Handwashing is one of the most important actions you can take to protect food and reduce the spread of illness. Hands may look clean and still carry germs, which is why proper hand hygiene must be a routine part of every shift.
In this lesson, you will learn where handwashing should take place, how to wash your hands correctly, and the key moments when washing is required. These habits help prevent contamination before it reaches food, equipment, or surfaces.
By the end of this lesson, you should be able to:
- Identify the correct handwashing station and explain why it must be used only for handwashing
- Follow the correct handwashing technique, including drying hands in a way that avoids recontamination
- Recognize the important times during work when hands must be washed
This lesson also reinforces a simple idea: if your hands touch anything that could contaminate them, wash them before returning to food handling.
