The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) Latex Allergy Alert June 1997 list this as its number one recommendation for latex allergy prevention:
"Use non-latex gloves for activities that are not likely to involve contact with infectious materials (food preparation, routine housekeeping, maintenance, etc….)"
This describes the janitorial trade applications precisely. In other words, for non medical applications use synthetic, nitrile or vinyl glovs.
