Need steel capped boots for work and i really want pink or bright yellow boots. From Australia only
Where can i by coloured (pink, yellow) safety boots from????
You can probably get the yellow ones at Walmart.com. I have seen them in the stores. Good luck. If you can%26#039;t find any pink, try getting the yellow and using Rustoleum plastic paint to paint them the color pink you want.
Reply:You can order steel caps for Doc Martens, last time i checked they cost about $50. My Docs lasted me 6 years. Also, at the moment the Breast Cancer Foundation is selling purple safety boots, and the proceeds go to research.

Any ideas where I can get some vaguely fashionable steel toe safety boots/shoes?
I%26#039;m properly fed up of wearing big bovver boots... I can%26#039;t wear anything nice to work, just trousers. Is there anywhere that sells nicer, more feminine safety shoes?
Any ideas where I can get some vaguely fashionable steel toe safety boots/shoes?
ARCO do a fantastic range of socially acceptable safety shoes from trainers to cowboy boots.
I think they%26#039;re available online
Check out their website.
Reply:Depends where you are. If you are in London go to Camden Town, there%26#039;s a shop called The British Boot Company next to the tube station. They sell all sorts of safety boots/shoes and some of them are actually quite feminine.
Reply:any Red Wing boot store has stylish steel toe boots/shoes for both men and women
Reply:any country western shop or a military store.
Reply:As loads of people have said before... arco. I settled with some knee high, tailored doc martins. Look ok with skirt suits.
But thank you so much for asking this question, I have exactly the same problem.
It would be lovely to retain a small bit of femininity whilst on building sites!!
Thank you darling, good luck. x x x

Where can I get a pair of safety boots?
I applied at a job that states having safety boots as a requirement. Never even heard of them. What are they and where can I get a pair (are they expensive?)?
Where can I get a pair of safety boots?
A shoe shop, a camping shop or an army surplus shop should be able to supply safety boots. They are heavy duty boots with very thick soles and steel toecaps. They should be around £35 to £70. Something like that.
Reply:there are different requirements for different jobs, the most common being metatarsals %26amp; steel toes.
find out from your employer where the best place to pick some up are. there maybe a safety supply store on the job site...
Reply:You can get steel toes boots just about anywhere, they can get very expensive depending on the brand, just like anything else.
Reply:Walmart, Target, K Mart, Payless, The Shoe Source, all have a section with steel toe safety shoes. they are not very expensive.
Reply:I think they mean steel toe boots...they sell those at WalMart and they are not too expensive
Reply:they have some in expensive ones at walmart

Do your company have to pay for safety boots?
I work around quad bikes as a full time job yet my company say i have to buy my own safety boots. Is this correct?
Do your company have to pay for safety boots?
My last employer covered the first $195 and it cost me $20 out of my pocket for my Red Wind boots. The company I work for today covers the first $85 but, if you had not purchased boots/shoes for 2 years or more, they%26#039;ll double that about to $170. At $170 though you%26#039;ll sign a paper stating the company has the right to withhold that $170 from your last check if you quit within 90 days, if you get discharged the company is out the $170 and you lost your job.
Reply:Depends on many factors.
Where you work, and what their policy is. They are not required to by law, that I know of. I have worked places they were needed, yet not provided. I have worked in non-union places where they were needed, and the company provided an allowance. Where I currently work, they are required and the company pays an allowance as provided for in the union contract.
In other words, No. If they say you need to buy them, you do.
Reply:Employers have a legal obligation under halth and saftey regulations to provide you with any protective gear you need to do your job. End of story, if they refuse you can report them to the health and saftey executive
Reply:It depends on the company. some of them make you buy the boots and some of them buy the boots for you. If you have to buy the boots you can deduct the price of the boots on your income taxes.
Reply:I would say that your employer has a legal obligtion to supply you with the correct safety footwear.
Your job should have been risk assesed and if found that there is a sufficient safety risk then they should supply boots or other means of safety equipment to protect you from whatever risks are posed.
The health and safety at work act should also be referred to
The only loophole may be if you work for another comapany while working within their grounds / premisis.But again whoever is the employer should foot the bill . Pardon the pun.
Reply:Yes You chose the job so its up to you to pay for your saety shoes
Reply:no,they must provide
Reply:If the company policy is that you must have safety boots, then it%26#039;s up to them to pay for them. See your Health and Safety representative, you must have one by law.
Reply:no, under health and safety at work act if the safety boots are required by law your company is required to provide them free of charge
Reply:It depends on the company, though often if you have to buy your own shoes they will give you a small amount of money on your wages to equate to the cost of buying then replacing over time.
£1 a week or something of this order so you can chose when you want to replace the safety footwear and with what style and quality.
It seems silly as quite often you will be required to have the safety footwear to be allowed to work, the company employed you because they want you to work for them, though without safety equipment won%26#039;t allow you through the door.
This is common practice in the building trade where you need your own person safety qualifications and safety equipment to work on a site.
Reply:My son is a heavy-duty diesel mechanic. His current employer pays for his boots, but he has worked for a number of companies that didn%26#039;t. They are not required to by law, it%26#039;s a matter of company policy.
Reply:No they do
Reply:If you live in the uk then boots would be classed as PPE personal protective equipment, which your employer MUST supply.
If he wants to argue the toss give the health and safety executive a bell, they%26#039;ll put him straight.
Reply:If they buy safety boots they can demand you wear them if you buy them they can only advice you to wear them.I worked for a large company who gave them to you as part of there pay deal,so had to wear them.
Reply:No you do!
You can write it off on taxes as a uniform.
Reply:I don%26#039;t think they will pay in full, but if you are required to wear safety boots, then they usually pay for most of it, but if you wanted to get really nice ones then you usually pay the difference.
Reply:Aces n eights has got it spot on if you%26#039;re working in the UK.
My industry provides all personal protective equipment (PPE). It will even supply custom fitted earplugs and prescrption safety glasses.
The only time a company won%26#039;t is if you are self employed.
So you should have provided safety eyeware, earplugs/ ear defenders, coveralls (flame retardent), Safety boots/shoes, gloves where nescessary, knee protectors if working off the floor, respiratory masks suitable for the tasks and other PPE as nescessary for material handling such as defined by COSHH data sheets.
If your employer is in breach of HASAWA, the Health and Safety executive can be contacted anonymously.

An employer also cannot charge you for boots they have supplied.
ie;
Duty not to charge employees for things done or provided pursuant to certain specific requirements.
9. No employer shall levy or permit to be levied on any employee of his any charge in respect of anything done or provided in pursuance of any specific requirement of the relevant statutory provisions.
Reply:Yes. I work in a union shop and we wear safety shoes. It has just been our last few contracts that we have negotiated the company paying some on our shoes.It is terms of your employment or you can look for another job.
Reply:Yes, you are stuck buying your own boots.
Reply:If they have conducted a risk assessment, (and by law they should have) and came to the conclusion that safety shoes are optional, you can buy them yourself. If they are saying that safety wear is compulsory they have to supply them for you as the law states,
%26quot;all employers must make available all necessary safety equipment wherever it is required by safety regulation.%26quot;
That%26#039;s to say, if they don%26#039;t supply safety wear and your opreational procedures require it, they are in breach of basic HASAWA legislation.

Why is wearing a safety boots is important?
You like your feet? Keep them safe. Dropping something on your foot makes dancing real hard. Even walking is a pain. The multiple bones on the feet and the fact that your entire body is supporting them makes them vitally important. Limping is no fun.
