I believe, on close inspection, you will find the assembly guy wearing a type of work glove that is a cotton glove with the fingers and palm coated with some type of silicone like material that is both tough and oil resistant. The inside of the glove, being cotton is quite comfortable to wear in a "hands on" work environment, as the cotton wicks away normal hand sweat unlike nitrile or latex surgical glove.
I have been using this kind of work glove for the past two years rather than leather. They are less expensive, hold up well, and cheap enough that once contaminated, I don't feel cheated to dispose of them. Unlike leather gloves. The tactile feel of this kind of glove is surprisingly good in being able to pick up small parts for assembly.
