Would You Wear This A Could Save Your Life

I think it's just as important for wfp if not more as you have a greater risk of your head making contact with something hard!!

it remains a fact that most window cleaners will go there whole life without falling, the same as most people manage crossing roads there whole life without getting hit by a car. perhaps we should all wear a full suit of body armour when we cross the road, just incase?

look im all for safety and prevention of injury but chances are if you fall from height your head isnt what hits the ground, its your arms, legs and back that are most likely to get injured.

this is the only logical solution....

You are obviously against PPE GM so best we leave it at that.... /emoticons/biggrin.png

It pains me to say it :lol: but I've got to agree with smurf on this one, anti trad and ladder bashing is rife at the moment but I do see the sense in wearing a little helmet like that. Yes I'm pretty safe on my ladder and chances are I'm never gonna fall because I'm extra careful BUT, again chances are I'd just break something if I fell but hey I'd be alive although in a lot of pain and unable to work for a while UNLESS I fell on my head or banged it badly on the way down. As Smurf said thats the killer so yes I'm looking at getting one now, I'm also against some of the stupid h&s shizzle thats being bandied about but heck I wear a hat anyway so it may as well be one of these.

[Smurf]

For ppl that use a ladder to clear guttering and downspouts out by hand I use this aswell as mentioned in another post today https://www.windowcleaningforums.co.uk/topic/5195-clearing-downspouts-guttering-by-hand/

Brilliant bit of kit /emoticons/wink.png

Goes without saying /emoticons/biggrin.png I'm very tempted to say something smart but could get banned from the forum as being seen as a rascist which I'm not
