Regulation
Hereafter, we detail a short description about the additional and basic requirements established by the
European regulations on safety footwear:
EN ISO 20344
This regulation defines the testing methods for occupational and safety footwear. It is used alongside the
regulations EN ISO 20345 and EN ISO 20347, wherein the requirements that footwear must comply according
to the risk levels are detailed.
EN ISO 20345 Specifications for safety footwear
This international standard details the additional and basic requirements for safety footwear, including
mechanical risks: safety toe designed to resist a maximum impact of 200J and crushing up to a force of 15 kN,
slip resistance, thermal risks and ergonomic characteristics.
EN ISO 20347 Specifications for work footwear
This international standard details the additional and basic requirements for occupational footwear that is not
exposed to any mechanical risks (impact or compression).
UNE-EN 61340-5-1 Electrostatics
This standard establishes the requirements for the protection of electronic devices against electrostatic
phenomena in low voltage environments.
Toe with impact resistance up to an energy equivalent to 200 J and
compression force of 15 kN.
SRA Slip resistance
SRA Ceramic floor with detergent
SRB
SRB Steel floor with glycerine
SRC SRC SRA + SRB
FO Hydrocarbon-resistant sole
A Anti-static footwear with resistance over 100 kΩ without surpassing
1.000 MΩ
E Energy absorption in the heel area not superior to 20 J
WRU Resistant to water penetration and absorption
P Insole with a resistance to perforation up to 1.100 N
