Organized workplace but unsafe handling of hot food

Business outlook

Pros

Organized, follows a system, management is kind, work is relatively easy.

Cons

I was often made to handle hot food straight out of the press with nothing but a sanitary plastic glove, so I left with a lot of burns on my arms and hands.
