Healthy hands begin with quality skin care. Do's include:
- Use professional-grade skin conditioner before and after work.
- Wash regularly with the industrial hand cleaner designed for specific workplace soils.
- Use the gentlest cleaner that is effective.
- Wash hands in warm water.
- Use wipes for in-between cleanup.
- Keep tools clean to help keep hands clean.
- Never use harsh detergents, solvents or chemicals to clean skin.
- Don’t use regular bar soap if your hands are greasy and grimy, as weak soap can cause you to scrub too hard.
- Don’t use abrasives or brushes not designed for skin.
- Never put dirty hands into gloves.
