Food Safety Focus | Hand Washing Importance

Hello All! 

I hope this message finds all of you and your families safe and well.

This food safety focus will focus on the importance of washing your hands.

Studies have shown that people touch their faces up to 20 times an hour, so you may be wondering how we wash our hands properly and how often should you wash your hands. The simple answer is every time you need to, especially after going to the bathroom and before and after handling any food products.  

Make sure to use soap and wash for 20 seconds at least – roughly one round of singing Happy Birthday.  Remember to air dry or towel dry your hands because wet hands are also a good vector for transferring germs.

Thanks for all you do every Day and I hope all of you have a wonderful and safe New Years!

Justin
