Certification
Employers risk facing liability claims if safety footwear does not comply with European directives. This also applies to modified safety shoes and the replacement of orthopaedic insoles, even when carried out by a qualified orthopaedist.
Safety and health in the workplace for everyone: that's at the heart of Neskrid. To ensure this, all our products come with two important certifications:
Neskrid's focus isn't solely on health and safety; we are equally committed to sustainability and quality. Our commitment to these values is reflected in our ISO 9001:2015 (quality management) and ISO 14001:2015 (environmental management) certifications.
To ensure our products consistently meet the latest certification requirements, Neskrid works closely with the NEN, the Dutch Standardisation Institute responsible for developing these standards. Our colleague Jan Dirksen represents Neskrid on their committee. If you'd like to know more about the NEN or Jan's involvement in the committee, please read his full interview here.
Replacing (semi-)orthopaedic
insoles in protective footwear
Did you know that replacing (semi-)orthopaedic insoles in work or safety footwear (protective footwear) cannot be done without meeting specific requirements? Without proper authorisation, the combination of the footwear and the insole may no longer comply with legal health and safety requirements. To ensure that the combination of (semi-)orthopaedic insoles with protective footwear fully complies with the requirements, it must adhere to European Regulation EU/2016/425, covering safety aspects, and European Regulation EU/2017/745, covering health aspects.
Would you like to know more about these regulations and how 4Allbrands (semi-)orthopaedic insoles comply with them across all brands and models of work and safety footwear? MAAK Lawyers has prepared a document outlining how this legislation permits the use of (semi-)orthopaedic insoles in protective footwear.
The 4Allbrands (semi-)orthopaedic insoles have been tested and approved by the Dutch Labour Inspectorate and the Bavarian Trade Inspection. Would you like to know more?
