Your limits should be the result of your risk analysis, but that number seems pretty low to me.

What's the limit in food you are dealing with?

What kind of food are you making?

 

Was this in a high care, high risk or low risk setting?

 

Is the workwear externally laundered?  Or by the employee?

 

Was the workwear clean or in use?  

 

What other results have you had?
