Gloves should be worn in the laboratory **when chemicals are being used**. This is to protect your skin from potential exposure to hazardous materials, including corrosive substances, toxic chemicals, or irritating agents.

In general, gloves are not necessary for activities such as recording data using a computer, using a balance to determine mass, or filling a beaker with water from the tap, unless there are specific contaminants or materials that require protection during those activities.
