Training Objectives

Assess sole hardness and material composition for maximum traction

Verify that the tread pattern covers the entire heel and sole area for stability

Course Overview

Not all "non-slip" shoes are created equal.

A sole that grips well on dry concrete might be like ice on a greasy kitchen floor. This training short moves beyond the generic label of "safety shoes" to the science of traction. We teach you how to evaluate the tread design, does it channel liquid away effectively?, and the sole hardness required for your specific work environment.

We also cover the critical importance of full-surface contact. Does the tread pattern extend to the heel, where most slips originate? We explain why consulting manufacturers for specialized gear is often safer than relying on general-purpose boots. Watch this video to learn how to choose footwear that actually keeps you on your feet.

No Worries. Here's Some Helpful Info.

Shoes or boots should fit well, be comfortable to wear, and feature soles that provide adequate traction for the user.

Knowing the environment is essential because the footwear selected must be appropriate for the specific conditions and hazards of the workplace.

You should examine the tread design, the hardness of the tread material, and the specific shape of the sole and the heel.

To be effective, the tread patterns should cover the entire area of both the sole and the heel.

You should recognize the limitations of standard gear and ask safety footwear manufacturers or suppliers for specialized recommendations.
