Technically you are better off just washing your hands as gloves can transfer particles too but the serve safe requirements say you need to wear gloves or use tongs when handling food after it is cooked.
According to the National Restaurant Association, ServSafe recommends that food handlers wear single-use gloves to create a barrier between their hands and food to prevent cross-contamination:
When to wear gloves
Wear gloves when handling ready-to-eat foods, or when changing tasks, especially when working with raw and cooked foods. You should also wear gloves if you have cuts, scrapes, or burns on your hands.
When to change gloves
Change gloves as soon as they become dirty or torn, after handling raw meat, seafood, or poultry, and before handling ready-to-eat food. You should also change gloves after four hours of continuous use, or after an interruption, such as taking a phone call.
How to use gloves
Wash and dry your hands before putting on gloves, and select the correct size. Hold gloves by the edge when putting them on. Never wash and reuse gloves.
What gloves to use
Use gloves approved for foodservice. Nitrile gloves are a good option because they are similar to latex in strength and elasticity, but don't contain the latex proteins that some people are allergic to.

I do when I am peeling and chopping butternut squash, sweet potatoes, or carrots, because they stain my fingernails and hands orange.
I also wear gloves when making meatloaf, because I squish the ingredients together with my hands. AND when making meatballs.
AND when handling raw poultry.

No...just clean hands. And rewash a couple times during cooking or baking. You?
