About the Pole Work Meeting Sheet

This Pole Work Meeting Sheet is designed for window cleaners utilizing pole systems to enhance job site safety while acknowledging the unique hazards associated with this method. It highlights potential risks such as electrical conductivity of water—even if the pole is non-conductive—and the dangers posed by top-heavy poles and environmental elements like lightning. The guide provides comprehensive safety tips including securing equipment to poles, maintaining clean and dry hands and poles to prevent jamming, and handling poles carefully to prevent accidents with bystanders or property. It advises on proper lifting techniques, storing poles away from heat, and never using razors on pole ends to avoid unintended damage. This resource is invaluable for maintaining safety standards while using poles in commercial routes, helping workers manage the physical demands of pole work, and ensuring they do not inadvertently create new hazards in the pursuit of efficiency.
