Removing and Disposing of Gloves

By Michael Moledzki, Training Coordinator

During these trying times, it is important to protect yourself. We all need to use Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), along with washing your hands with soap and water to help stop the spread of COVID-19.

All guards should be putting gloves on for protection during every shift and putting on new gloves every time you return from break. See pictures below, to properly take off and dispose of the gloves. Please make sure you understand when taking off your first glove, you do so without touching your skin. Next, crumple it up into the second glove and remove the second glove while not touching the outside of the glove, putting your finger(s) underneath the rim of the glove and remove slowly to minimize anything from getting on your clothes or person. Make sure both gloves are thrown out in an appropriate container. Keep safe all and see you soon.
