Maintaining adequate personal cleanliness;
Washing hands thoroughly in an adequate hand-washing facility as necessary and appropriate to protect against contamination;
Removing or securing jewelry and other objects that might fall into animal food, equipment, or containers;
Storing clothing or other personal belongings in areas other than where animal food is exposed or where equipment or utensils are cleaned; and
Taking any other necessary precautions to protect against the contamination of animal food, animal food-contact surfaces, or animal food-packaging materials.
