SAFETY TIP -
OCTOBER 2011

Help prevent slipping, tripping and falling injuries; wear appropriate footwear!

- High-heeled shoes are rarely appropriate work footwear

- Wear shoes with a low (one inch or less), wide heel, and support around the heel - no flip-flops or slingbacks

- Shoes should have laces or Velcro straps that can adjust the fit of the shoe
