If you cut or burn your hand while on the job, how should you treat the wound before returning to work?

a. Wash the wound with antibacterial soap, cover it with petroleum jelly to stop the bleeding, and leave it uncovered to dry

b. Thoroughly wash the wound, cover it with a bandage, and cover the bandage with a single-use glove

c. Do whatever is the most comfortable, since foodborne illnesses cannot spread from wounds

d. Apply pressure to the wound with a paper towel until the bleeding stops, then cover it with a single-use

the answer would be a because u need to make sure the wound isn't infected an the bacteria stays inside the covering which causes your hand to be infected.
