Health and Safety: Safety and Comfort with ATLAS
Health and safety is a key issue in every sector – whether construction, manufacturing, the skilled trades or logistics. The health and safety of employees are the top priority and are required by law. The aim of occupational health and safety is to prevent accidents at work, injuries and damage to health in the workplace. This involves not only technical and organisational measures, but also the correct personal protective equipment (PPE).
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) – Your protection in everyday working life
Insoles are far more than just an optional extra. With working days of 8–12 hours spent on hard floors or in extreme cold, your feet and joints are subjected to extreme strain. The right insole:
- Reduces strain on the joints through optimal cushioning
- Supports the foot’s natural alignment and prevents poor posture
- Regulates temperature and moisture levels inside the shoe
- Prevents pressure points and blisters
- Increases productivity by reducing fatigue

Why are work gloves important?
Depending on the job and sector, different types of gloves are required, such as assembly gloves, cut-resistant gloves or chemical-resistant gloves. Our gloves offer optimum protection and a high level of comfort.
WHEN MUST ESD SHOES BE WORN?
ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) footwear is specially designed work footwear that safely dissipates electrostatic charges to prevent damage to sensitive electronic components or hazards caused by sparks. They are essential in certain work environments and are often required by regulations. ESD shoes prevent even minor discharges from damaging or destroying electronic components by dissipating the charge through the sole of the shoe. In many industries, standards such as DIN EN 61340-5-1 stipulate the use of ESD footwear to ensure product protection and occupational safety.
Why do I need special insoles in safety shoes?
Special insoles offer greater comfort, cushioning and support – particularly when standing or walking for long periods, or if you have foot problems. They can reduce pressure points, improve posture and help prevent conditions such as heel spurs or flat feet.
Which insoles are permitted in safety footwear?
As a general rule, only insoles approved by the manufacturer or tested with the specific model are permitted. These are listed in the EC Declaration of Conformity.
What is the difference between orthopaedic insoles and standard insoles?
Standard insoles are designed to enhance general comfort, for example by providing cushioning or improving foot ventilation. Orthopaedic insoles, on the other hand, are custom-made to correct foot misalignments or provide support for medical conditions such as flat feet or splay feet.
What should I look out for when choosing a work jacket?
First and foremost, you should consider what features your jacket should have. If you work outdoors a lot, it should be windproof and weatherproof. If you only work outdoors now and then, you could opt for a lighter jacket or waistcoat. ATLAS has the right work jacket for every season and every job.
What safety features do the trousers have (e.g. EN standards, reflective strips, knee reinforcements)?
Many items of trousers in this range are EN-ISO certified (e.g. waistband trousers, dungarees, shorts) and feature reinforced knees, reflective strips or tear-resistant materials for enhanced safety.
What accessories are available?
Accessories include functional underwear, hats and, where applicable, additional products such as gloves – although the visible section relates to functional underwear and hats. Further categories (hand/skin protection, hearing protection, etc.) can be accessed via the menu.
What functions or areas of application does this accessory have?
Functional underwear helps regulate body temperature whilst being worn; hats protect against the cold or the sun. Further details are available on the product page.
