Question 1 of 7Which of these is good personal hygiene for a food worker?
  1. Wearing yesterday's dirty apron again
  2. Wiping sweat from your face with your hand
  3. Coming to work clean, in clean clothes
  4. Using perfume instead of a shower
The right answer: C. Coming to work clean, in clean clothes

Here is why: Saudi rules say workers must keep themselves clean and wear clean clothes. Dirty clothes and hands carry germs to food.

Question 2 of 7You wear a mask in the food preparation area. What must the mask cover?
  1. Only your mouth, not your nose
  2. Only your chin and your neck
  3. Only your nose, not your mouth
  4. Your nose and your mouth
The right answer: D. Your nose and your mouth

Here is why: Saudi rules say the mask must cover the nose and the mouth in food areas. This stops drops from your breath falling on food.

Question 3 of 7When there is no food on it, you may eat your lunch at the food preparation table.
The right answer: False

Here is why: False. Saudi rules ban eating over surfaces that touch food. Crumbs and germs from your mouth and hands can stay on the table. Eat in the staff break area, then wash your hands.

Question 4 of 7Raw chicken juice splashes on your apron. What should you do?
  1. Wipe it with a wet cloth and keep working
  2. Change to a clean apron and wash your hands
  3. Turn the apron round so the dirty part is at the back
  4. Keep working and wash the apron at home
The right answer: B. Change to a clean apron and wash your hands

Here is why: Raw chicken juice has germs that can get from your apron onto food. Put on a clean apron, then wash your hands because you touched the dirty one.

Question 5 of 7You are making a sandwich with bread and salad for a customer. How should you touch the food?
  1. With bare hands, if they look clean
  2. With a kitchen cloth
  3. With single-use gloves
  4. With bare hands, but very quickly
The right answer: C. With single-use gloves

Here is why: Saudi rules ban touching ready-to-eat food without gloves. Hands that look clean can still carry germs.

Question 6 of 7Your co-worker wants to use an e-cigarette (vape) in the store room. What is correct?
  1. It is not allowed in any food area
  2. It is fine, because a vape has no smoke
  3. It is fine if the door is open
  4. It is fine if no food is open
The right answer: A. It is not allowed in any food area

Here is why: Saudi rules ban smoking, e-cigarettes and tobacco in all food areas. Smoking is allowed only in the place set aside for it.

  1. A wool scarf around the neck
  2. A hair cover
  3. An apron
  4. A ring
  5. A mask over the nose and mouth
