In the event of a cut or break in the skin during service, what must a barber do?

  1. Continue with care

  2. Immediately cease and disinfect any implements

  3. Apply a bandage and continue

  4. Clean the cut after finishing the service

The correct answer is: Immediately cease and disinfect any implements

If a barber continues with the service after a cut or break in the skin, it can potentially lead to infection or transmission of blood-borne pathogens. Therefore, option A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not prioritize the immediate stop and disinfection of implements. Option B should be chosen as it follows proper safety protocols and ensures the well-being of both the client and the barber.
