A few final questions
1-Are ladders banned?
They are not banned, they are supposed to be the last resort in cleaning windows
2-Do some wfp guys want them banned to gain more customers?
I don’t think, I think that wfp’s users now understand that you do not have to put your health or life on the line just to earn a living.
3-Are ladders at fault or is it the user?
Both
4-If ladders were banned who would be going around checking?
Men in rain coats and a clip board
5-If a maximum height was introduced whos going to come and check with there tape measure?
See answer 4
6-Is there some jobs you have to have a ladder for?
There are many jobs and industries that ladders are the only practical option for use, window cleaning is now not one of them.
7-A test and licence, would it stop falls?
A test and re-tests every couple of years - ladder mot and proper training would help
8-Would a ban be more to stop a little business rather than for the falls?
Sorry I don’t understand the question?
9-What if theres a drought would windows have to be left dirty?
A drought only lasts for a few weeks so if the windows are left dirty, then so be it, the last proper drought was in 1976, so it not that regular to really affect the livelihood of cleaners.
10-Is it me or a people trying to ruin one of the last jobs you can start doing without to much rules and regulations?.
No, its just people who are trying to prevent cleaners dying.
