Why do window cleaners need insurance?

Window cleaning is one of the most risky professions. An employee could fall off a ladder, or a client could sue over accidental damage to their home. Window cleaning insurance policies can help pay for medical care, lawsuits, and repairs. Some policies, like workers' comp, may be required by law.
