Bert is 40 years old and works on an assembly line in a brush factory. He is terribly afraid of getting sick from germs and thoughts about dirt, germs, and illness worry him most of the time. He avoids shaking hands with others, including his boss. He won’t eat in the cafeteria with his co-workers. He goes to the bathroom to wash his hands much more often than his breaks permit. He has trouble leaving the bathroom because he must wash his hands repeatedly with scalding hot water. As a result, his hands are so dry, cracked and bleeding that he has trouble doing his job. Bert has been reprimanded several times because of his actions and has been warned that he will be fired if he doesn’t stop his behaviors.
