EN ISO 20345
This international standard specifies basic and additional (optional) requirements for safety footwear used for general purposes. It
includes, for example, mechanical risks, slip resistance, thermal risks and ergonomic behavior.
The toecap protects the wearer’s toes against risk of injury from falling objects and crushing when worn in work environments where
potential hazards may occur. The midsole protects against the foot being pierced by underfoot objects. The updated EN ISO 20345:2022
version introduces further categories to the standards table as defined below.
