What is the importance of BICSc certification in facility management? Ritaj Facility Management has the answers.

The British Institute of Cleaning Science (BICSc) is the largest independent professional body for cleaning standards. Established in 1961, its purpose is to raise the standards of education and competence in the cleaning industry worldwide. BICSc certification serves as a benchmark for quality, safety, and best practices, ensuring that cleaning professionals are properly trained in handling tasks to an exceptional standard.

Why is BICSc Certification Important?

1. Standardization of Skills and Procedures BICSc certification ensures that all cleaning operatives follow a standardized process, regardless of the environment. For facility managers, this means consistency in service quality, whether it’s a commercial office, a residential complex, or a healthcare facility.

At Ritaj Facility Management, our BICSc-trained professionals adhere to global best practices, minimizing errors and ensuring that cleaning tasks are performed safely and efficiently.

1. Health and Safety Compliance Cleaning involves the use of chemicals and specialized equipment, which, if mishandled, can pose risks to both operatives and building occupants. BICSc-certified operatives receive training in health and safety measures, ensuring that they use equipment correctly and handle chemicals safely.
