Window Cleaning Risk Assessment RISK ASSESSMENT Assessment of Risks The objective of this Risk Assessment is to evaluate the risk whilst undertaking exterior cleaning Specific Risk Assessment This section identifies the specific risks involved and quantifies their likelihood based on the following table: * JBFiX Ltd considers 1 and 2 as the level of risk for normal controlled working conditions. Numeric Value Probability Description 5 Likely/frequent Has occurred frequently. Event only to be expected. 4 Probable Will occur several times. 3 Possible Could occur sometimes. 2 Remote Unlikely though conceivable.* 1 Improbable So unlikely that the probability of it occurring is close to zero.* Window Cleaning When it comes to window cleaning, the staff at Jbfix are experts in this field. With new and improved ways of making this job easier, we have now incorporated the revolutionary ladder less window cleaning technique, known as the water fed pole system. This practice allows the operative to work from the ground with telescopic poles, making previously inaccessible windows easy to reach. This system gives our staff the access to reach heights of up to 72ft without having to rely on any other equipment, though harness is saftety cheacked and avaialble if needed.
