    Yes we utilise these and they are policy for us for outside shoes. They do have grips on the bottom

    Hi ACIPC Folk,

    Can I please get a consensus about the use of overshoes in theatres?

    We don’t ordinarily use them but sometimes visiting locums don’t come prepared and end up having to use spare shoes.

    What is the OSH perspective? Do overshoes (if they are used) need to have grip patterns on the sole?

    Not nice to have to use someone else’s shoes either.

    Thanking you in advance, regards, Nadene
