The main purpose of safety shoes or safety boots is to protect the feet and toes from injuries caused by falling objects, crushing, slipping, electrical hazards, and punctures. In South Africa, the Occupational Health and Safety Act requires employers to provide suitable PPE, including footwear, to their employees to ensure their safety and health.
