The American Podiatric Medical Association offers the following guide that matches specific occupational hazards with work footwear:
| Hazard | Protection |
| Falling and rolling objects, cuts and punctures |
Steel-toe safety shoes; add-on devices, such as metatarsal guards, metal foot guards, puncture-proof inserts, and shin guards. |
| Chemicals, solvents | Footwear with synthetic stitching and made of rubber, vinyl, or plastic. |
