BFFF are currently creating some new guidance for ensuring coldstore footwear is suitable and sufficient for use in your coldstores.
The guidance aims to provide those sourcing and supplying footwear a test methodology which ensures the footwear is offering the right levels of protection. This work follows a civil claim received within the industry by a BFFF member company.
In summary, the way coldstore footwear is currently tested is not reflective of a coldstore environment, and is therefore not industry specific. By completing the following questionnaire, you will be instrumental in ensuring your coldstore footwear is fit for purpose.
All those completing the consultation can choose to remain anonymous.
Deadline for consultation return is 31st August 2021
