I used to keep a box around for cleaning out the machine sumps or cleaning a greasy mess...bathroom. One job on a turret hand my guys hands pruning so I gave him a pair and that started a new trend. Everyone was wearing gloves provided it was not a job that dealt with handling anything moving.
I personally hate wearing them unless needed...needed as in dealing with greasy glop, cleaning coolant sump muck.
I also hate that guys don't mind having gloves dirty and will touch other stuff with filthy hands...keypads, thumb drives, handles, coffee pot, fridge...tooling. Overall its been okay, guys like them, so I went along. When it got bad I'd remind them and we got back on track.
Lately we started going through them like hotcakes, they are being left around and multiple reminders have been made to no avail.
I am rethinking about keeping them stocked on the shelf...especially since we ran out way too soon AND of course nobody mentioned till after the last box was empty.
What the norm in your place?
