That depends on your business - some businesses allow them, some prefer you wear only closed-toe footwear. Your best bet is to consult your HR department, just to be sure. If in doubt, stick to closed toe.

Open toe shoes are ususally not allowed in business casual. They are more casual. You can wear just about anything except jeans and sleeveless shirts.

Open toed shoes in some cultures are offensive it would depend on your business or office, best bet is to see the type of clothes the boss's admin assistant wears and follow those guide lines

Check your company dress code to be certain. Different copanies have different rules. Some allow open toe with hose or socks (usually for females only). Some dont allow this at all. Check out what other people are wearing and check the dress code for your company.

No from what I have read I don't think it is a good idea to wear open toe shoes

I thought I can wear open toe shoes, but my contact person told me that open toe shoes aren't allowed for safety purposes.

As someone who works in and teaches in a professional environment I teach my students these rules. ( I also follow them).
Your blouses should be no lower than 1.5 inches past your collar bones. Your sleeves need to be to your elbows.
Your skirts need to be to your knees
Your toes and heels need to be covered.
This true even if you are allowed to wear business casual attire some days or in general. I enforce it even on field trips.

If it's casual, then YES! Go for it-- just stay away from flip-flops or thongs as those are generally frowned upon in most (even casual) businesses-- unless your boss really doesn't care.
Check and see what other women wear at your office.
