Workwear for working with an angle grinder

Types and characteristics of overalls for chefs

In places of common food, the chef is the main character, because deliciously prepared food is a guarantee of a large flow of visitors. Due to the specifics of the cook’s workplace, special requirements are imposed on his appearance, including his work clothes. You can see the types of surgical gloves and their characteristics here.
The picture shows different types of overalls for chefs.

What should be?

The cook’s working clothes should be:

• Practical. Cooking (cutting various products, making sauces, frying accompanied by splashing oil, and much more) involves high risks of contamination of the workwear of kitchen workers, including cooks, therefore, the workwear must be water-repellent and grease-repellent and be easy to clean. In addition, the chef constantly interacts with objects that have a high temperature (ovens, hobs, kitchen utensils, barbecues, grills, etc.), so the overalls must be resistant to high temperatures, that is, not maintain active combustion. Overalls must be durable, as they will often be washed during use. When buying overalls for cooks, you should also purchase special shoes with anti-slip soles (because in the kitchen there is always a risk of not noticing and slipping on the floor on something spilled or spilled) and a reinforced sock with metal inserts (to prevent injuries to the feet as a result of possible falling heavy and sharp objects).
• Aesthetic.

The main color of the clothes is white. Colored clothes are allowed, but light shades.

A cook’s overalls, as a rule, include:

• Headdress (cap, scarf, garrison cap or cap). If an employee wears a mustache or beard, they should also be covered to prevent hair from getting into food.
• Dressing gown, tunic and work blouse. The length of these garments should be about mid-thigh. The sleeves are closed with pressure rivets or elastic bands. The collar on the clothes has a closed cut. It is forbidden to use buttons in cook clothes, as accessories (cook clothes should not contain any small details at all). Work clothes should not contain unnecessary parts that can catch on the kitchen equipment while moving around the kitchen.
• Loose elasticated trousers.
• An apron is not required, but is almost always used by cooks, because the apron is designed to protect the rest of the clothes from contamination.
• Often, you can see neckerchiefs at the chefs.

To increase the protective properties, fabrics can be additionally treated with antimicrobial impregnation. Alternatively, fibers containing silver chloride can be added to the fabric.
