[QUOTE="Ptrunner, post: 1157429, member: 14530"] I just saw this post and wanted to weight in. 1. As safety co-chair, there is no OSHA mandate on shoes. Its a UPS Policy. 2. Wearing UPPER covered shoes that go past your Achilles weakens your Achilles, there's plenty of evidence of this. Think of basketball players, football players, they wear uppers and it doesn't prevent them from hurt ankles and also it makes sense that when they do get injured its bad because of weak ankle strength. 3. I wear sketchers work shoes with no upper, no leather, no steel toe and have been in very important meetings and not a word has been said. 4. The harassment way of dealing with it is perfect. In my building at least 50% of people have shoes with no uppers. Theres no way of enforcing this all. [/QUOTE]
