Tomas has a part time job bagging groceries. He tries to put items that are similar together, so that it will be easy for the customer to unpack and put things away when they arrive home. He also works hard to keep groceries safe from contamination. Which regular step is an example of Tomas’s attention to this aspect of safety?
