Slip Resistant Shoe Covers – Save Lost Work Days and Expensive Claims

Is your workplace equipped with risk assessment programs to help identify potential hazards?  As we all know, accidents happen. Statistics show nearly 20,000 workers have fall-related injuries in any given year.  Many are a result of slips and falls. Many of these falls can occur on elevated surfaces, uneven surfaces, and also on the same level surfaces.

By familiarizing yourself with the common causes for reasons for most frequent fall-related injuries, you are able to help create a safer workplace.

Each year, thousands of slip trip and fall accidents occur at the workplace due to the lack of the proper slip resistant shoes or employees or visitors not wearing the proper slip resistant shoe covers (overshoes) while on the job. No matter which industry the employees work in, safety concerns remain the top priority.

While some slip resistant shoe covers or overshoes may look the same, there are still exceptional slip resistant shoe covers that manage to be distinctive.  Tiger Grip’s complete line of slip resistant shoes provides unique & safe features while keeping the individuals on the job feeling comfortable and productive all day.

How Do Slip Resistant Shoe Covers by Tiger Grip Protect Individuals from Accidents?

There are many hazardous situations at the workplace that can cause slip trip and fall accidents.   Some of the common injuries are caused by slippery and greasy floor surfaces. With many regular footwear, the bottom of the shoes do not provide enough friction to help prevent slip and fall accidents.

A strong grip from the bottom of your shoes can be measured by how strong the “Coefficient of Friction” numbers scores. The score of 0.4 – 0.5 “Coefficient of Friction” or “COF” indicate that the shoes are likely to have a good grip on slippery surfaces, and can help protect the individual from slip and fall injuries.

Tiger Grip’s slip resistant shoe covers are proud to have exceeded the standard scores of the ISO safety standards, along with other safety industries’ slippery standards.  Depending upon the various types of slippery surfaces, ranging from water, and glycerin, to chemical, oily & greasy surfaces; Tiger Grip’s slip resistant shoes have achieved high “COF” scores up to 0.54 for glycerin slippery surfaces,  up to 0.64 for water or regular wet slippery surfaces, and up to 0.62 for oily & greasy slippery surfaces.
