Foot Protection in the Workplace
In industries where workers are exposed to heavy equipment, excess moisture, extreme temperatures, or harsh chemicals, simple foot protection can prevent most common dangers to your workers’ feet.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) estimates that approximately 180,000 American workers suffer work-related foot and toe injuries each year. Of those injuries, 75% involve workers who are not wearing foot protection. The average cost of an on-the-job foot injury is $6,000. It is easy to imagine how these types of injuries can increase a company’s insurance premiums, not to mention the loss of productivity resulting from a lost time accident.
Our foot protection comes in a variety of sizes. With the exception of the black sock boots, our boots are designed to fit over standard shoes or boots. Available in steel toe or standard toe versions, we have the perfect foot protection solution for your company.
About Back Protection
Back belts provide back support and protect workers' backs during heavy lifting. We have several styles of back belts. Back injuries comprise up to 20% of all workplace injuries. Back injuries leading to lost time cost American companies millions of dollars per year. Back injuries are usually chronic, requiring expensive and repeated treatments. In industries where workers perform repeated lifting and twisting motions, back strains and injuries are common. Employee training on proper lifting posture and safe handling procedures, coupled with personal safety equipment, will lessen your employees’ chance of back injury.
Back belts can help prevent employee back injuries by improving lifting posture. Although back belts do not singlehandedly prevent back injury resulting from overuse, they have been shown to aid workers in proper lifting techniques. Back belts are part of a good strategy for increasing worker safety and decreasing lost time accidents.
Our back belts are constructed of high quality orthopedic elastic, with suspenders to help keep them in place. Adjustable closure straps allow the wearer to customize the fit. All varieties are tapered to 4” in front.
