Training Objectives

Execute pre-use inspections for cracks, separation, and embedded debris

Apply protection strategies for heat, impact, and penetration hazards

Course Overview

Steel-toed boots are great, but they can't stop molten metal or a high-voltage shock.

Most workers assume one pair of safety boots covers every hazard. That assumption leads to injuries. This training short expands your arsenal beyond the basic boot to cover the specific gear needed for extreme threats.

We explore the vital roles of leggings (for heat) and metatarsal guards (for crushing risks higher up the foot). We also explain the critical, invisible difference between conductive and non-conductive footwear. Do you know which shoe prevents a static explosion and which one stops an electrical current? Watch this video to match the right gear to the right threat and learn the daily inspection habits that keep you on your feet.

No Worries. Here's Some Helpful Info.

Protective footwear is required when heavy objects may fall on feet, when working with sharp penetrating objects, or when electrical hazards are present.

Leggings protect the lower legs and feet from heat hazards like welding sparks or molten metal, and they are designed with safety snaps for quick removal.

Metatarsal guards shield the instep area from impact and compression and are typically made of materials like steel, aluminum, fiber, or plastic.

Safety shoes can be made highly nonconductive to protect against electrical hazards or electrically conductive to prevent static electricity buildup in explosive areas.

Inspections must check for cracks, holes, material separation, broken buckles/laces, and embedded items in the soles that could cause electrical or tripping hazards.
