Non-Safety Cap Footwear

While many industries require safety footwear, some workplaces allow non-safety shoes when there are no significant hazards like heavy objects, sharp materials, or electrical risks. These industries typically prioritize comfort, style, and mobility over protective features.

Office & Corporate Work
Retail & Hospitality
Healthcare & Aged Care (Certain Roles)
Education & Training
Creative & Tech Industries
Fashion & Beauty Industry
Performing Arts & Entertainment

Even in these industries, employers may still require  Slip-resistant shoes (e.g., hospitality and retail), Closed-toe shoes for hygiene and basic protection and Ergonomic footwear to prevent foot fatigue from standing long hours.

While non-safety shoes are acceptable in low-risk workplaces, employees should still consider comfort, durability, and slip resistance for workplace safety.  Wearing non-safety shoes in hazardous workplaces puts you at risk and can violate workplace safety policies. Always wear the right safety footwear to protect yourself and ensure compliance with regulations.
