*Expected slip and fall reduction is 80% multiplied by the average participation percentage. Many factors contribute to the cost savings you may achieve when implementing a SFC Safety Footwear Program. The largest is the participation rate (% of employees wearing SFC footwear) achieved. Participation estimates by program type are developed from SFC customer experience, which can vary. SFC estimates that your slip and falls may decline by 80% or more when participation in an SFC Program approaches 100%. Factors that may contribute to slips and falls include: first day/new employees, employees tripping on objects, and employees wearing SFC footwear that is more than 6 months old.
