Fatigue is thought to be a major
contributor to slips and trips as
workers who are tired and
uncomfortable are
more likely to lose
their footing.
In response to this, CAT Footwear has been researching the effects of ill fitting work boots on the natural gait of the foot and has developed the Generator boot that works with the foot rather than against it.
The Generator, incorporates Flexion technology allowing workers to maintain stamina by supporting movement, reducing stress on bones and joints and providing the right level of cushioning and support.
The Generator incorporates ERGO - ergonomic footwear design - that integrates stability, flexibility and comfort to enhance the natural movements of the foot.
The Generator also exceeds industry standards for slip testing.
