Many restaurants and hospitals require slip-resistant shoes. Here’s what that means for the Bistro.

What “slip resistant” means
Work footwear marketed as slip resistant is designed and often tested to grip better on wet or oily surfaces than everyday shoes. Test methods exist for footwear slip resistance, and brands list results or claims on product pages. It lowers the risk of slipping, but no shoe makes a greasy floor safe.

Is your tread still doing its job?
- Look at the ball of the foot and heel. The pattern should be clearly defined.
- Shiny, flat patches mean reduced grip.
- Packed-in grease reduces grip too. Scrub the tread (how).
Employer rules
Some employers require specific slip-resistant brands or standards, or provide approved footwear programs. Check with your manager before buying.
