Explanation:

In a food - handling context (implied by the options related to working with food), when there's an infected cut on the hand, proper hygiene and safety measures are crucial. Option a: Using an antiseptic and then a glove over the infected cut is not the best as the cut is infected and needs more care. Option c: Continuing to work with food after just washing hands is unsafe as the infected cut can contaminate food. Option d: Covering with a bandage and continuing to work is also unsafe. Option b: Washing hands (to clean), putting on a clean bandage (to protect the cut), and then covering with a glove (to prevent contamination of food) is the correct and safe procedure.

Answer:

b) Wash hands, put on a clean bandage, and cover it with a glove
