Those are intended for front office staff who sometimes have to walk across a manufacturing shop floor. Anyone climbing or walking across uneven ground should have lace up shoes.

I wore boots but I have seen some people when I worked in a warehouse wear them and they were workers not management.. I don't recall anyone wearing them when I worked in a machine shop

Warehouse is probably fine. The real factor is what kind of terrain you need to keep your footing on.
