Gloves are a red herring. Most evidence from the food industry suggests that people wearing gloves wash their hands less frequently than those without.
Rather than insist on gloves, insist on hand washing or alcohol/sanitizer at regular intervals. Gloves might be worn as a result of that, but gloves (latex or otherwise) can still be "dirtier" than skin.
