When working in work environments with surfaces or tasks that require certain risks, it is important that workers not only wear protective clothing, but that their feet are protected from possible crush injuries. Moving and lifting heavy objects, such as in an airport environment, carries the risk of dropping items on your feet. Safety shoes with reinforced toes can help keep workers safe.
1. Prevent slips and cau00eddas
Trips, slips and cau00eddas can occur in any work environment, especially when safety shoes are not part of the uniform. Specialized safety shoes help you keep your balance and stay safe, preventing tripping or slipping.
It is also important that shoes have traction and the right sole material, especially when working on ladders in the construction industry or on uneven surfaces.
2. Climatic conditions
When your staff work outdoors in all types of weather, such as in the construction, logistics, and airport industries, it’s vital that their shoes offer protection from rain, snow, and extreme cold. Shoes should be insulated and waterproof to help prevent conditions like frostbite and other circulatory problems.
3. Electricity environments
Electricity is obviously a huge risk factor in many workplaces, and while health and safety measures are in place, it is vital that workers wear the proper safety footwear. These should be made of non-conductive materials such as leather or rubber to avoid the possibility of electrical shock. If your employees work in an environment where static electricity is likely to build up, the use of anti-static footwear is also recommended.
