Place for food handling

According to Regulation 36(a) of 2009 Food Hygiene Regulations, a food handler who prepares, packs or serves food for sale shall ensure the preparation, packing or serving of food is free from any contamination.

Did you ever seen the way of food handling as shown on your right? Would you consume the food prepared at such place, in such a way?

Handling food on the floor would contaminate the food.  The contamination could be from the splashed of dirty water from the floor, or drain water, or from slippers of people passing by. 

As long as the level is stepped with foot, it is floor and we could not wash, handle, clean food on it, even washing utensils.
