Howsafe has launched a new professional foot measuring service designed to help workers reduce pain, improve comfort, and protect long-term health at work. The service uses specialist impression boards to assess foot type, posture, and weight distribution, allowing trained staff to recommend the most suitable insole for each individual.

Foot pain and lower limb problems are among the most common work-related health issues in the UK, often contributing to knee, hip, and back pain. Conditions such as plantar fasciitis and postural imbalance are frequently linked to poor foot support, particularly for people who spend long hours on their feet or working on hard surfaces. The new service aims to address these issues at source, starting with the foundations of the body.

The assessment process takes just a few minutes and identifies arch type, pronation pattern, and leg posture. Based on the results, customers are matched with the correct Dynamic Arch™ insole, designed to provide targeted support, shock absorption, and long-lasting comfort. The service is available in-store, with the option for Howsafe’s trained sales team to deliver assessments on-site for businesses and teams.

By introducing this service, Howsafe is expanding its focus beyond PPE and workwear to offer a more holistic approach to workplace wellbeing and performance. The aim is simple: better foot support, reduced pain, and improved comfort that helps people stay productive, safe, and supported throughout the working day.
