in the puddle yes no problem, just be careful as its usually self cleaning glass and coating can be damaged if your a bit keen trying to rub a bit of bird **** off
 
It will be totally fine, but I refuse to go on flat roofs at any point when I will be standing in 3 inches of water also even when the water is lower and red algae is present as those rubber membrane roofs are slippy when algae is present.

It's a lantern, usually on a flat roof. We have a couple of customers with them identical to your photo. No way do you need to stand on them to clean them. Just inform your customer you will be standing on their flat roof.

However, do bear in mind that Health and Safety will tell you that it's not safe to do the job, as the protective wall isn't high enough to stop you falling. So we should be telling you not to do the job as it's an unsafe working environment.
