There are many types of construction jobs that require different combinations of protection. In the descriptions below, I have identified a majority of these types of jobs and attempted to show a relationship between the job atmosphere and the types of footwear necessary for the job site.
Construction jobs require intense labor, and construction workers are looking to increase their stamina by working smarter and not harder. This starts with having the right footwear. A well-made pair of boots is a tool to hold up to the rigors of the construction site, provide protection, and reduce foot and back pain. Features such as a supportive insole are crucial to overall comfort and personal stamina. In some situations, protective footwear can be the difference between a broken bone and a lost appendage. Those who have encountered even a tiny injury are more cautious and continue to depend on safety boots to get them through their workday.
