Workboots are required wear for people employed in dangerous industries. They come in a variety of brands, styles, and colors, but the distinguishing feature is whether the boots incorporate steel to cover the toes. Anyone can buy workboots for any sort of activity, but steel-toe workboots are a safety requirement in the construction industry and any other industry that deals with heavy equipment and potentially dangerous manufacturing processes.

Like hard hats, steel-toe workboots are designed to protect a vulnerable part of a worker's body in case of an occupational accident. The steel prevents falling or rolling equipment from breaking a worker's toes. Workboots are considered basic safety equipment by government regulators, just like gloves, air filter masks, and goggles. Companies that do not require their workers to wear steel-toe workboots as part of their safety equipment policies can be held liable for workplace negligence if an accident happens and the worker is hurt.

Workboots are most often made of leather or rubber. They are typically waterproof and come in various styles for men and women. Most retailers separate their workboots into categories, including safety toe, non-safety toe and composite toe. Read more about workboots at the links on this Business.com page.
