1.)  Personal protective equipment AKA PPE is a very important aspect in ensuring safety in the food manufacturing plant. As food handling safety tools, they provide a barrier between the contributing factors and the workers. This is crucial in the food processing industry where most operations are done by hand.

2.) Personal hygiene is important to prevent food poisoning. When handling food, wash your hands thoroughly and often. If you are sick, do not go to work, because you can contaminate food more easily. Food handlers should be properly trained in safe food handling.
