ISSUE TEASER:

Grab your fork and knife because safety expert Gary Mauer has returned with some food for thought. Mauer shares a dozen recent window cleaning accidents and notes the past summer was an unusually unsafe one. He implores all window cleaners to stay safe, always check their equipment, and to think of their loved ones.

If you've ever visited online forums for window cleaners, you know they can be informative and thought-provoking, and sometimes the discussion and exchanges among participants can be conscientious. Chief correspondent Bob Lawrence explains the value of online forums and how window cleaners can digitally help each other.

To all window cleaners who manage employees: are you a great manager? AWC contributor Philip M. Perry provides "The Manager's Self-Assessment Quiz" where you can score yourself on a set of skills and see how close to 100 you get. Your business profits depend on how well you carry out your mission as a manager.
