SEL Number: 01ZA-02-FTWC
Title: Covers, Outer Footwear, Non-CBRNE


Last Updated: 6/30/2010 10:28:32 AM

Previous SEL Number: 01ZA-02-FTWC

Description: Disposable outer footwear covers for contamination hazard protection (no standard currently applies for this item - for certified medical footwear covers, see Item 01EM-04-FTWC).

ImportantFeatures: Footwear covers are rubber, textile, or plastic-based materials that are shaped into a cover that can be worn over boots. Footwear covers are intended to provide additional protection from contamination and, consequently, are disposable after use.

Operating Considerations: Footwear covers should not interfere with ensemble wearing. The wear surface of the footwear cover should provide some level of traction to prevent slipping. The footwear cover design should not allow penetration of liquids through seams or the top of the cover. Consequently, the footwear cover should be worn on the ensemble in a fashion that will prevent any liquid entry at the top.

Training Requirements: Core Training: OSHA 1910.132.
Initial Training: Minimal (<1 day)
