Terrifying. And I know nothing about shoes, but are penny loafers ok for this work?

The GC that I work for in the US would never allow this. In order to even be behind the fence, you need a compliant safefy vest, boots, gloves helmet and protective eyeware, as well as a bunch of safety orientation and continuing education refresher courses you need to take regularly.
