When I got to the UK from New Zealand in late 2021, I worked at a big Tesco supermarket while I was seeking out and interviewing for professional roles. We were provided with a uniform but you had to wear your own shoes. The number of times I hurt my toes or ran into my right ankle while moving big cages of groceries was .. pretty f* high. They should totally be providing steel cap 8 hole boots.

>n most situations, a leather shoe provides sufficient protection.

That’s not relevant. The only thing relevant to this conversation is what the reg requires. Based on what I’ve read in the regs, the following rating is required:

Impact resistance (I) for the toe area of footwear (50 foot-pounds)

Give some info. I’m getting “delivery people” as being the highest, but that includes all delivery drivers… Dominos to Brinks.

Other sites are saying it’s cops or cops/security.

They also say law enforcement has the most general violence committed against them. Not dying because you have a bullet proof vest on skews the data.

Edit: how dare I say someone should back something up, especially after their advice failed

As soon as one rises up, the powers that be will clamp down on that figurehead. Easier now more than ever. It’s also more easier to smear one’s image and dissolve a following with paper trails we’ve all created since our youth on the internet.
