Can food handlers wear medical bracelets?

Yes, food handlers are allowed to wear medical bracelets while working. In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Food Code does not prohibit food handlers from wearing medical bracelets.

However, some states or local jurisdictions may have specific regulations or policies regarding food handlers wearing medical bracelets. It's important to check with the local health department or regulatory agency to ensure compliance with any applicable laws or regulations.

Generally, as long as the medical bracelet does not pose a risk of contamination to food or food-contact surfaces, it should be acceptable for food handlers to wear it while working.
