Reducing Slip, Trip, and Fall Hazards while Promoting Inclusivity in Workplaces

Slips, trips, and falls are all too common in the workplace, contributing to over 25% of all injuries sustained on the job.

These incidents not only pose a significant risk to workers’ safety but can also result in severe consequences such as broken bones and other injuries. At HMZ, we’re problem solvers with a unique perspective, prioritizing safety, environmental responsibility, and inclusivity in all our endeavours.

In our quest to address these challenges from a workwear perspective, we developed the HMZ method—a patented invention that is challenging workwear norms. Inspired by a childhood memory of feeding the chooks on our farm, HMZ offers a solution to enable wearers of work pants to adjust their clothing to suit individual height effortlessly. With tear-away hems, individuals can tailor their workwear without any prior experience with garment alterations.

But HMZ is more than just a practical solution for adjusting pant length. It’s about promoting inclusivity and ensuring that all workers, regardless of their height or body shape, have access to workwear that fits comfortably and safely.

Historically, men’s pants have offered various leg length options, but this hasn’t always been inclusive enough, leaving many individuals—both men and women—without the right fit. With HMZ, we’re changing the game by integrating length options into all waist sizes, ensuring that most body types are catered to.

The impact of HMZ extends beyond improving safety on the job site. By offering a solution that is tailored to the diverse needs of workers, we are promoting inclusivity and empowering individuals to feel comfortable and confident in their workwear.

At HMZ, we’re committed to pushing the boundaries of innovation and challenging the way we think about workwear. With HMZ, we’re not just reducing slip, trip, and fall hazards—we’re creating a safer, more inclusive future for all workers. Join us in our mission to revolutionise workwear and make a positive impact on the lives of workers everywhere.
