In uncertain times where political unease influences buying decisions, a strategic step, should be to look at the strength and dependability of your supply chain, especially in critical areas such as Safety Footwear.
Reliable supply
History has demonstrated that it is not only a pandemic that can bring a supply chain crashing down. Unchecked certificates and fraudulent products can also bring major disruptions to supply. This could inadvertently cause a business to put their employees at risk of injury, not only causing suffering and loss of income for the injured party and the business but also brings reputational damage to all parties involved. In extreme cases this can also lead to legal action being taken.
It is sensible to work with a provider that has good stockholdings of styles and sizes that are easily accessible within a short lead-time and back up stock for unexpected fluctuations in demand.
Regulation & Responsibility
In today’s workplace it’s not as simple as an employer quoting: “I’ve provided the basic protection, so I’m covered.” The safety footwear issued must be fit for purpose, a Buyer or Health and Safety manager, responsible for the safety of their employees would be wise to call in professionals to advise the correct footwear for each role that they are safeguarding – a service not many companies offer.
