Occupational Work Shoes- EN ISO 20347 Strandard

The EN ISO 20347 standard defines the essential and optional requirements for occupational footwear, which is designed for professional use without a protective toecap. This standard ensures footwear offers protection, durability, and comfort in workplaces where toe impact protection is not required, making it ideal for industries such as healthcare, hospitality, and retail.

Key Features of EN ISO 20347:

1. No Protective Toecap: Unlike safety shoes under EN ISO 20345, occupational footwear certified under EN ISO 20347 does not include reinforced toe protection.

2. Performance Requirements:

o Slip Resistance: Ensures safe movement on various surfaces.

o Antistatic Properties: Minimizes the risk of static electricity buildup.

o Energy Absorption: Provides enhanced comfort with shock-absorbing heels.

o Water Resistance: Offers protection against limited water exposure.

3. Classification:

o Class I: Made from leather or other materials (excluding all-rubber or all-polymeric footwear).

o Class II: Includes all-rubber or all-polymeric footwear.

4. Optional Features (based on workplace needs):

o Oil and Hydrocarbon Resistance (FO).

o Penetration Resistance (P).

o Heat Resistance (HI) or Cold Resistance (CI).

o Water Penetration and Absorption (WRU).

5. Testing Standards:

Footwear undergoes rigorous testing to meet requirements like slip resistance (SRC), material durability, and ergonomic comfort.

6. Latest Version:

The current version is EN ISO 20347:2022, which incorporates updated testing methods and enhanced performance criteria compared to the earlier 2012 standard.
