“The selection of foot protection depends primarily on the hazard. However, comfort, style and durability should also be considered. The choice should be made on the basis of suitability for protection, compatibility with the work and the requirements of the user. Safety footwear would be maintained in good condition, checked regularly and discarded if worn or deteriorated”
