BACKGROUND: Falls are one of the leading causes of both fatal and non-fatal injuries in the occupational population. While footwear is well known to impact postural stability, occupational footwear is designed for safety and can have design features that limit postural stability. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of various occupational footwear on limits of postural stability. METHODS: Twenty healthy males and females [age: 21±1.2 years, height: 178±8...
