Hi
In the food industry it is commonly used because the operators stand in one
position for protracted periods, they swear by it and having put lids on
pies for 8 hours (well you have to don't you) I can personally testify it
does make a difference!
Have a good bank holiday one and all...

Anti fatigue matting is what is used in gyms to absorb some of the impact –
personally I’m not convinced

I wonder if anyone can help. I have seen a chef who fractured his ankle
early in 2009. I believe he would benefit from some lightweight comfortable
safety shoes, can anyone recommend any – that are okay in a food
environment?
I’ve suggested he is provided with anti fatigue matting and looked at the
manual handling aspects of his job.
He’s still having physio, is there anything else I could recommend?
Thanks in anticipation Suzanne
