INCREDIBLE ACHIEVEMENTS & EXCEPTIONAL STANDARDS OF EXCELLENCE WITHIN THE PROFESSIONAL CLEANING INDUSTRY WERE CELEBRATED AT THE 2022 BRITISH INSTITUTE OF CLEANING SCIENCE (BICSc) AWARDS HOSTED BY MARTIN BAYFIELD | P12-17 THE CHAIRMAN’S UPDATE - AUTUMN 2022 BY LORRAINE DAVIS MBICSc As I look back over 2022, obviously the outstanding moment so far has been the death of our late Monarch, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. I believe that no one would have known or experienced the rule of such a long serving and dedicated Monarch as Her Majesty. The Institute was founded in 1961, her late Majesty came to the throne in 1952. The Royal family and the nation are led by a new King, King Charles III. So, in fact, it’s a visible and emotional end of an era. Changes or ends of eras are not always this highly defined. In the time that I have been Chairman of the British Institute of Cleaning Science, I have seen and witnessed many subtle changes that have represented the passing of another era. For example, a black-tie event is the only event where you can be sure that most gentlemen are wearing a tie (at least at the beginning of the evening). Also, more and more staff enjoy the flexibility of hybrid working... except of course our cleaning operatives. Prior to the pandemic, there was minimal online training at BICSc, but now approximately 80% of our training is delivered online. The driver for this was obviously the COVID-19 pandemic. Whether due to outside factors or BICSc striving over the last ten years to remain relevant and up-to-date, things have changed subtly over time. With the introduction of CPSS in 2012, there was a major change as COPC had remained more or less unchanged since the 1960’s. For example, we taught mopping in COPC as a figure of eight (Torvill & Dean method) but in CPSS, this updated to systematic overlapping passes (Carl McDermot method i.e., Lords Cricket Ground Head Groundsman). The reasons for this were a fundamental change in mopping equipment, e.g., flat mopping and the improved muscular skeletal technique. The complete rebranding of BICSc and the name change from BBS to BICSc Training & Services was fundamental in consolidating the change in our systems and processes. Not all changes can be traced back to a single event, but the Institute’s strength is in working with its members and suppliers and having a dedicated team of staff supported by the Council.
