What happens when the back heel is exposed when wearing anti-static shoes


Anti-static shoes are the standard equipment of anti-static clothing. They are usually worn by workers in the production workshops of electronics factories. They are mainly used to prevent the human body from burning and exploding due to static electricity.

The effect of anti-static shoes cannot be ignored, but some workers don't take it seriously. They always don't lift the anti-static shoes in order to save trouble and expose the heels. Can this still play an anti-static effect? The answer is of course no.


Anti-static shoes can only work if they are worn correctly and connected to conductive floors. If your anti-static shoes are worn correctly and are closely connected to the ESD floor, the charge on your body will quickly leak to the ground, achieving the effect of anti-static. If you are wearing anti-static shoes but your heels are exposed, it means that your feet are not connected to the anti-static shoes at all, let alone connected to the conductive floor. Where is the static discharge? There is no anti-static effect at all.


Therefore, companies must remind employees of this when doing induction training for employees. Don’t do whatever you want when wearing anti-static shoes and anti-static clothing and other anti-static equipment because of your own convenience. The stakes must be clearly stated so that everyone All have the concept of self-protection. Only in this way can we eliminate various unfavorable factors in production.
