CLEARWATER, Fla., July 14, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via PRWEB - Peltz Shoes' newly renovated 59,900 sqft. warehouse calls for higher safety standards to ensure all employees are working in a safe environment and injury-free. Due to the many hazards that a warehouse can come across, Peltz has teamed up with Keen Footwear to incorporate the use of their newest line, Keen Utility, for steel toe shoes and boots for its warehouse employees.
Peltz asked Keen Footwear if they would like to join in this safety effort and provide steel toe shoes for its warehouse associates to prevent injury, and they agreed, having graciously provided a durable and comfortable steel toe option as protective footwear for Peltz employees. The steel toe shoes provide comfort, flexibility and style, while maintaining the safety and security of Peltz employees. The Keen Utility line is also available on the Peltz Shoes website at http://www.PeltzShoes.com
While Peltz employees at first were reluctant at the thought of wearing steel toe shoes, they have come to enjoy wearing them and understand the safety benefits they provide. Vice President/CEO Gary Peltz feels that Keen Utility has provided an excellent solution to reduce injury in the warehouse.
Peltz Shoes strives for a healthy and safe work environment for all its employees. As the company continues to grow, continued efforts will focus on any safety concerns, and provide safety equipment and gear as needed.
