Industrial More and more every industry is learning the
benefits of germ and infection control. Infection control means
preventing the spread of disease from one person to another. All we ever
needed to know about it we learned as children. There is no reason to be
afraid of germs or of infectious disease. Disease is spread in simple
ways, and control is relatively simple, if you understand some basic
principles. The entire science of infection control can be summed up as
separation of "clean" and "dirty." Items or areas which have (or might have) come in contact with human bodily secretions since cleaning are "dirty," and should not come in contact with areas or items which are clean. Just as mom said, used linen, used dishes, and bedrooms and or bathrooms are dirty. The kitchen and areas where food, utensils and linens are stored are clean. Hands should always be washed between dirty and clean items or areas. » If you are in the Food or Commissary Industry, then you should know that food safety is a critical concern in this country. The centers for disease control estimates 76 million people get sick every year, and 5,000 people die from food-borne illnesses. But that could change, with some deceivingly simple looking, disposable gloves. » If you are in the Medical or Emergency Services field then you should already know that the CDC estimates more than 2 million cases occur each year of hospital-acquired infections. Proper use of gloves could cut that number by a third, by reducing the transfer of germs. As expected, exam gloves for the medical field are both required and carry a higher standard of germ protection than standard industrial gloves. » If you are in the Security or Law Enforcement fields, then you should know that AIDS and HIV are on the rise at alarming rates, using gloves can protect you from the unknown germs that others may be carrying. There is no greater fear than searching someone else's pockets or bags; you never know what can be or has been in there. » If you are a Contractor or Day Laborer, then you should know that construction sites are almost always very dirty and tend to contain some of the most dangerous germs such as molds. The constant use of your hands in your trade make gloves as necessary for you as they are for your doctor. » If you are a Postal Service, UPS or Fed-Ex Employee, the use of gloves can protect you from many unknown particles that may be on or in packages and letters. With the increased threat of terrorist attacks and the attacks that have already happened through the mail, a little extra protection can truly save your life. |
