Chain-mail gloves, which are easy to clean in hot soapy water, are a good idea particularly when cutting meat. Ships' officers are advised to procure these in consultation with their management offices. These gloves are regularly used ashore by butchers, and in the meat-packing industry, by scuba divers and by animal control officers (against animal bites).
