The five-second rule states that food dropped on the ground will not be significantly contaminated with bacteria if it is picked up within five seconds of being dropped and can be used.

Employees may not contact exposed ready-to-eat food with their bare hands. Suitable utensils, such as deli paper, spatulas, tongs, or gloves shall be used at all times. 

Food employees must wash their hands and exposed portions of the arms after touching bare human body parts, using the restroom, coughing/sneezing, using a handkerchief, using tobacco, eating/drinking, handling soiled equipment/utensils, as often as necessary to prevent cross-contamination, and when switching between raw and ready-to-eat food.
