Exterior window cleaning

• Clean exterior glass, frames, sills, and related metal or stone returns to a streak-free finish using approved methods: traditional squeegee, pure-water water-fed poles, and lift-access cleaning.
• Set up, inspect, and operate scissor lifts, boom lifts, and other company-approved aerial work platforms to reach glass up to 40 feet.
• Stage drop cloths, cones, and barricades; control water runoff; and protect landscaping, vehicles, equipment, and pedestrian paths.
• Remove labels, tape residue, construction film, and light hard-water spotting within the agreed scope. Report glass damage, failed seals, and access limits before work starts.

• When rain, high wind, lightning, ice, extreme cold, or other unsafe conditions prevent exterior work, stop exterior operations and move to interior window cleaning for the remainder of the shift.
• Clean interior glass, partitions, sidelights, transaction windows, and accessible high interior glass from approved ladders, poles, or lifts.
• Detail frames, tracks, sills, and blinds or shades only when included in the work order. Do not move production equipment or enter restricted areas without authorization.
• Document the weather hold, the interior work completed, and any glass left for a return visit so the supervisor can reschedule exterior work.

• Complete a pre-use inspection of every lift before operation. Do not use equipment with a failed inspection, missing guardrails, or an out-of-date annual inspection.
• Operate lifts only on firm, level surfaces within the manufacturer’s slope and load limits. Use a ground spotter where required by the site or the lift manual.
• Stay inside the platform with both feet on the floor and a harness and lanyard attached to the designated anchor point when the lift requires fall protection.
• Coordinate with site security, production, and the account supervisor on roof access, dock access, lockout of overhead doors, and pedestrian or vehicle exclusion zones.

• Meet the account scope and leave glass free of streaks, runs, debris, and residue. Walk the work with the supervisor or client contact when requested.
• Follow OSHA, site, and company safety rules, including fall protection, aerial-lift, ladder, chemical, and housekeeping requirements.
• Wear required PPE: slip-resistant footwear, eye protection, gloves as needed, high-visibility vest in traffic or dock areas, and a full-body harness with lanyard on lifts that require it.
• Use only approved cleaning chemicals. Never mix products. Label secondary containers and keep SDS access available.
• Report incidents, near misses, property damage, and unsafe conditions immediately. Complete daily work logs, lift inspection sheets, and chemical or incident forms as required.
• Work weekends, early starts, and occasional extended shifts when client access or weather recovery requires it.

• Outdoor work in heat, cold, sun, and wind, and indoor work in offices, plants, warehouses, and public areas.
• Work at heights up to 40 feet from aerial lifts and approved access equipment.
• Exposure to water, glass-cleaning chemicals, noise, vehicle traffic, and production areas.
• Schedule includes weekdays and assigned weekends. Exterior work is weather-dependent; interior cleaning is the planned fallback.
• Must be able to climb in and out of a lift platform, stand for long periods, reach overhead, and work with arms extended.

• Lift, carry, and stage equipment…
