No, I think it would actually be disgusting if there was a rule preventing this? It’s his body, just let him scratch his damn arse.

However, there should absolutely be a rule about washing your hands afterwards though.

He’s doing it in the line, ain’t no chance he’s going to go to the bathroom to do something he should have done in the bathroom in the first place.

…in Australia at least, it would be very illegal to run a food service business where the employees have to go all the way to the bathroom to wash their hands.

Source: 4 years in food service. And no, I didn’t stick my hands down my pants. But I was definitely being paid more than this guy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You don’t have to wash your hands in the bathroom, no. You do have to do things regarding fingering your asshole out of public sight and away from food handling areas and no he cannot wash his poopie hands where the splash back can hit food.

It shouldn’t be that close to food either. You’re right he should do it out of public view. Like I’m not condoning his actions, but I’m not ready to condemn him either. This is why you should pay the people who prepare your food well. Then maybe he’d be paid enough to give a shit. Support minimum wage laws.
