how did the majority of windows get cleaned 20 years ago and even further back? risk taking
Times have changed, H&S , ladders at hight regs , wfp etc.
I'm just a bit fed up with the constant bashing.
No one wants to read of another fatal accident or loss of earnings due to a severe fall.

Hi Simon,
The remarks regarding this type of incident i am sure is not directed at you personnally, but you have to agree, what they are doing is stupid to be fair??
These are exactly the reasons why we are getting all this WAH directives being thrust at us, nothing to do with water shortages but SAFETY!
I have used ladders for many many years before WFP, however, I never stood on a conservatory roof like that, nor did I balance like the other window cleaner? yes, I have fallen off a ladder before, but am glad to say that was due to overstretching and also putting my ladder on a pvc sill? lesson leart quickly!
Take both photos and lets be honest, either of them fell and they would be both in deep S**T!! No one, myself included, want to see anyone getting hurt. Its just frustrating when you see images like this that really are going to hit the papers as they will be serious accidents and again this will give the government jobbies more reason to hit us harder still!!
