Shifting the body's weight from one side to the other can relieve a bit of the pressure, but if the job requires preparing meals all day, you need to watch out for spills, too. This list includes anti-fatigue and nonslip floor mats that can help you and your staff remain productive and safe.

Editor's Notes

July 02, 2020:

Working in a restaurant can be taxing on the body. Specifically, when long periods of standing are required. Wearing the proper shoes can offer some comfort, but mats provide an extra layer of cushion to reduce the impact of standing on an unyielding floor.
It doesn't matter if the job is a line cook, kitchen porter, or a waitperson, you'll find anti-fatigue mats with non-slip properties like the Crablux Floor Mat and the Gorilla Grip Runner make the workspace safer and more comfortable.

All of the mats on this list are made from some form of rubber, which is durable enough to hold up in high traffic areas. The options with drain holes such as the NoTrax T30 and the Rubber Cal Dura Chef add an extra level of safety by letting the liquids pass-through the openings, allowing the staff to maintain their stance and continue to work without fear of falling.

Tapered edges are another important safety feature. Mats with this design like the Comfort Flow and Sky Solutions keep the corners flush to the ground and lessen the likelihood of someone having an accident. These mats also make it easy to roll dish carts on and off.
