Construction workers make up a large percentage of the global workforce, and they mainly include cement workers, masons, carpenters, plumbers, road repairers, house builders, and house assemblers. Except for a few special jobs, most construction workers work long hours. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, 80 percent of construction workers work 10 or more hours a day. As a result, construction workers who have worked for 10 years or more may suffer from many chronic foot problems in the future. For these reasons, choosing the right pair of safety boots for your workers' physical and mental health is essential.

Choose the right boots

When it comes to choosing safety boots, how can workers choose the right safety shoes for them, whether male or female? Key points include the following.

1. Choose the right size. Too big or too small will be bad for foot health.

2. Select the appropriate thickness. Each worker has a different type of foot. There are mainly three types of safety shoes on the market: 2E, 3E, and 4E, with different thicknesses. Neither too thick nor too thin is suitable.

3. It should not be too heavy. If the safety boots are too heavy or too large, the workers need to bear greater pressure when walking.

4. The sole should not be too hard, especially the forefoot position, because it will cause great damage to the foot's arch.

5. High-quality insoles, especially elastic insoles, can effectively reduce the impact on the ankle and knee joints when walking.

Clean your shoes properly

Use a small brush dipped in water with detergent to clean the dirty parts of the shoe surface, then use a small brush dipped in water to clean, and finally wipe with a dry cloth. It would be best if you tried to avoid washing insoles. If there is an odor, take out the insole and place it in a ventilated place to air dry, or even use a shoe deodorant to remove the odor. If the situation is bad, you can rinse the insole under the tap and gently wipe it with a soft brush. Do not use any cleaning agent; otherwise, the surface layer fabric may fall off. Place the cleaned insole in a ventilated place to air dry. Do not use a hot air blower or a hair dryer to dry the insole forcibly; otherwise, the insole may be deformed.

If your safety boots are suede, you should use a suede protector on your suede boots before wearing them in rain or shine. Avoid chemical contamination of your boots. Solvents, strong acids, and bases can cause irreparable damage to leather, while common substances such as milk and salt are also very destructive. If contact occurs, clean boots immediately. You should only use quality cleaners specific to the safety boots' material.
