FATAL ACCIDENTS TO WINDOW CLEANERS

I thought I would post these 2 fatal accident reports concerning window cleaners. Perhaps we can use our networks to raise the awareness to the hazard when we see a window cleaner at work.

  • This sounds a bit like the ‘Law of Unintended Consequences’ or Sods Law. As window cleaners had many accidents falling off ladders they were required to use pumped systems from ground level so as not to use ladders. Maybe overhead power cables were not taken into consideration. Where is the risk analysis?
