Tip of the Week No. 143 – 01/08/07 – Window Cleaners


One can easily see that fall hazards from heights greatly add to costs for employers. In recent years, urban window cleaners, because of their high visibility and exposure to publicity, have become very safety conscious.
Surprisingly, they have been successful in gaining the cooperation of building managers, sometimes despite bids that are higher than their less safety-conscious competitors. The result of this safety commitment is a vastly improved experience modification rate, which pays back those safety-conscious owners in the best way of all – cash savings!
