Safety Concerns of High Access Bulb Changing
Although the task of changing a light bulb seems straightforward, it’s important to perform the task with the utmost care and safety, as it poses certain risks of injury which can be prevented if the proper tools are used.
One of the most dangerous jobs your facility worker can face is getting on a ladder to complete high-access cleaning jobs. Each year, ladder falls cause more than 164,000 emergency room-treated injuries and result in approximately 300 deaths in the U.S. And surprisingly, most ladder deaths occur from falls of 10 feet or less. With Unger’s line of high access bulb changing tools, your employee’s feet will be planted safely on the ground so they’re able to reach heights without the use of a ladder.
Another potential hazard of changing a hot bulb for custodians is the risk of burns upon contact. Insulated design features ensure that custodians are safe from heat while changing bulbs. This feature, combined with long pole handles, keeps custodians off dangerous ladders and lifts.
Unger’s high access bulb changing tools are ergonomically designed so custodians do not run the risk of injury resulting from awkward posture or arm and/or back extension. The extendable light bulb changer comes complete with anti-slip extension pole features for easy operation.
