How Boots Can Destroy Your Business

This week, my friend Fernando sent me a message that should make any boss reflect.

Do you know what he said?

What so many companies ignore until it's too late…

"Antonio, man, I remembered you because I changed jobs. Now I'm in maintenance and I have to wear safety boots for 8 hours and… my feet are killing me!

I have some that are super wide, but even so, my big toe is bruised. I don't know how others manage."

Also, something strange is happening. Since I started wearing sandals in the summer, I think my foot has grown, it's widening.

Look, shoes I used to wear two years ago to go out, I can't even put them on now.

And yesterday was terrible, I worked 10 hours and today I feel like an elephant stepped on my feet.

Do you know if there are barefoot safety boots? I don't care about the price, but I need something that won't destroy my feet.

By the way, happy holidays and all that stuff they say around this time, buddy!"

Look, anyone who knows Fernando knows he's not a complainer. He's one of those guys who pushes through everything and you wouldn’t believe how hard he pedals on his bike.

But of course, when foot pain won’t go away even with an ibuprofen, you start to wonder if the problem is the new job… or the boots you're wearing.

And this, which seems logical and unimportant, is what companies don't see.

In fact, I don't know any company that takes it into account.

And there's so much at stake.

Right.

Maybe you're not Fernando, but perhaps you're the boss of many "Fernandos".

And you know that a worker who can't handle his feet is a worker who doesn't perform. And even worse, it's someone who starts thinking of any excuse not to return to work.

And I'm not just talking about pain, I'm talking about how something as seemingly insignificant as boots can directly affect your business:

• Lower productivity: How can someone perform well when, instead of thinking about work, they’re only thinking about foot pain?
  
  

• Sick leave: Chronic pain can lead to injuries, and injuries lead to days or weeks of absence.
  
  

• Demotivation: If your employees feel they can't handle the pain, they won’t give you 100%.
  
  

The curious thing about all this is that many times, companies spend thousands of euros on tools, machines, or technology… but skimp on the most basic: their employees' footwear.

And this is where Birkenstock Safety Boots make the difference.

In addition to more space for your toes, they won’t push your big toes out of place.

Thanks to their great flexibility, you can wear them for 8, 10, or even 12 hours without remembering you have them on.

And they meet all the safety requirements, including steel toe caps in some models.

To sum up.

This type of footwear complies with regulations, protects the worker, and doesn't harm their feet.

Yavestruz.

What things.

Health starts with your feet.
