How Slip-Resistant Outsoles Help Reduce Workplace Accidents

Slips, trips, and falls remain the second leading cause of lost time on job sites across Australia.

Choosing safety footwear equipped with tested, slip-resistant outsoles is a simple and effective way to protect yourself and your crew.

SRA Slip Resistance Testing Explained

The ErgonX Elements work boot features a specialized outsole designed for grip on hazardous surfaces. Tested to the SRA rating under Australian standards, the sole is verified to offer slip resistance on smooth ceramic tiles coated with a soapy detergent solution. This standard ensures dependable traction where water, soapy residue, or slick conditions create hazards on site.

Reducing Injury Risk on the Job

Research indicates that wearing slip-resistant safety footwear can help reduce the risk of workplace slips, trips, and falls by up to 54 percent during the workday. Combined with an arch-support orthotic insole and supportive upper, the Elements boot provides comfort while helping maintain stability on slippery surfaces.

Key Features of ErgonX Elements Work Boots

Podiatrist TipRegularly inspect the tread pattern on your work boots. Over time, worn-down tread reduces surface grip, compromising slip resistance even on premium safety footwear.
