just landed a new job at a restaurant opening up nearby, chipotle style serving and shit. they say non slip shoes are required, just picked up some fairly cheap trainers with decent traction and a rubber sole. do i really need some verified non slip shoe or will the cheap ones i just described work out fine?

That depends on how much you enjoy busting your ass on the floor.

That might depend on your boss and superiors and how closely they follow their regulations/guidlines, and also if you actually do slip while at work.
Vans makes some decent nonslip shoes. http://firstwefeast.com/eat/check-out-vans-first-professional-kitchen-shoes/

All non slip means is rubber with tread I think. As long as you don't show up in a pair of beat to shit converse you'll probably be ok. After that it's up to ur manager of assume. Good luck at your new job

Non slip shoes are made specifically to not slip on wet tiled and similarly surfaced floors. Regular rubber tread is not the same.

Good call. Safety first! You could die, or much worse.

I've worked lots of kitchen jobs and I always wore skate shoes. Never had a slip. I've seen it happen, but it's rare.

yes, they need to say non slip or slip resistant. It'll say on box and/or on soul of shoe. Its important because grease is everywhere in a resturant and floors are slick. They get wet, spills and grease everywhere on the daily. Its easy to slip. You'll find this out real quickly. This doesnt mean you have to spend a pretty dollar on some fancy shoes. Walmart has non slip for 20-30$. Its necessary. Trust me

Same. Always rocked vans at my restaurant jobs and never slipped.
