DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Home Cleaning Services - Global Market Trajectory & Analytics" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Global Home Cleaning Services Market to Reach US$10 Billion by the Year 2026

Consumer demand for residential cleaning services is increasing at a significant rate owing to the growing number of households with dual-incomes. Such a high growth in demand is increasing the number of professional residential cleaners in the marketplace. Being a pressing health concern, allergies remain one the primary drivers behind rising demand for home cleaning services.

This factor is also playing an important role in increasing the uptake of natural, green cleaning solutions on the expense of traditional products that are based on chemicals known to aggravate allergies. In the recent years, a large number of companies offering home cleaning services have started embracing green cleaning solutions to help people with allergies.

The industry's growth is also augmented by notable expansion of the healthcare sector and the rising geriatric population. Seniors who need assistance with daily routine and healthcare needs are unable to clean their homes. These elderly people often rely on providers of cleaning services for their homes. The phenomenal growth exhibited by the home cleaning services industry can also be credited to continuous expansion of the commercial real-estate sector. The need for consistent care and cleaning for commercial properties is presenting massive business opportunities for cleaning service providers.

Amid the COVID-19 crisis, the global market for Home Cleaning Services estimated at US$7.5 Billion in the year 2022, is projected to reach a revised size of US$10 Billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 9.6% over the analysis period.

The U.S. Market is Estimated at $1.6 Billion in 2022, While China is Forecast to Reach $1.4 Billion by 2026

The Home Cleaning Services market in the U.S. is estimated at US$1.6 Billion in the year 2022. The country currently accounts for a 22.3% share in the global market. China, the world's second largest economy, is forecast to reach an estimated market size of US$1.4 Billion in the year 2026 trailing a CAGR of 13% through the analysis period.

Home Cleaning Services Global Market Report 2022: Persistent Hygiene Threats and Risks at Homes Raise the Importance of Cleaning Services -...

The federal government is launching a full and thorough investigation into the case of aVeterans Affairs Canada (VAC) employee discussing medical assistance in dying (MAiD)with a veteran.

In a statement provided to Global News on Friday afternoon, a spokesperson for Veterans Affairs Minister Lawrence MacAulay said that the minister has directed his Deputy Minister to undertake a full and thorough investigation into this matter.

MacAulay is also ordering that, all front line staff at Veterans Affairs Canada are given formal training, direction, and advice on how to approach issues around MAiD, the statement added.

The investigation and training come after Global News first reported on Aug. 16 that a Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) employee had discussed medically-assisted dying with a veteran, a case that veterans advocates said made clear the stark stakes of the ongoing struggle for veterans to access supports.

Story continues below advertisement

Sources told Global News a VAC service agent brought up MAiD unprompted in a conversation with the combat veteran, who was seeking treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder and a traumatic brain injury.

Global News is not identifying the veteran who was seeking treatment due to privacy concerns but has spoken directly with the individual, who says the service agent brought up MAiD repeatedly and even after the veteran asked the service agent to stop.

The veteran said he felt pressured as a result.

He also said that the service agent told him in the call about having helped another veteran access resources for medical assistance in dying through Veterans Affairs Canada, including support for that persons children who were struggling with the impending death.

The veteran told Global News that service agent told him that the other veteran went through with a medically-assisted death, and that it had been someone who was determined to end his life.

Better than blowing his brains out all over the wall or driving his car into something, the veteran says the service agent told him when describing that separate case.

Veterans Affairs Canada said earlier this week it was looking into the matter.

Story continues below advertisement

The department and its staff do not have the ability to provide the resources for an assisted death, but veterans advocates have raised serious concerns about the impact of even raising the subject.

Its kind of like planting a seed, said Debbie Lowther, executive director ofVETS Canada, a charity that helps veterans in crisis.

If we have a veteran whos already struggling with their mental health and maybe they are contemplating suicide this is an opportunity thats been presented to them.

For some, the thought of taking their own life and having a loved one find their body may have been a deterrent to going through with suicidal thoughts, she explained.

But presenting the option to have a medically-assisted death instead, Lowther said, could have very, very damaging consequences.

Bruce Moncur, founder of the Afghanistan Veterans Association of Canada, raised similar concerns.

If that veteran was close to the edge, that might have been the hair that broke the camels back, he said in an interview. Its so cavalier with somebodys life.

Moncur fought in Afghanistan as a reservist and sustained a traumatic brain injury after being shot in the head while deployed. He said learning of the service agent bringing up medical assistance in dying to a veteran left him feeling shock, outrage, anger.

My understanding [is] this staff is still on the payroll and still working at their job, which is unacceptable to me. I just cannot understand how this person can still be trusted, he said.

Im wondering, is this my case manager? Is this somebody that I have trying to look after me?

Moncur, whose partner is NDP MP Niki Ashton, also criticized MacAulays performance in the job.

He said he sits on the Service Excellence Advisory Group, which advises the minister, and tried to call an emergency meeting about the matter.

They denied my request, Moncur said. They said that we were going to have a meeting in September anyway, so might as well just wait until then.

Story continues below advertisement

Global News sent a list of detailed questions about the specifics of the allegations made by the veteran to officials at Veterans Affairs Canada. In response, the department stated they do not record phone conversations between veterans and staff in order to protect privacy.

The department said it could not corroborate the allegations made by the veteran that the service agent had described helping a separate veteran access medical assistance in dying, or about the veterans claim that the agent told the separate veteran that MAiD was better than blowing his brains out.

The veteran who spoke with Global News has said he filed multiple complaints about the service agent since July 21, 2022.

When the Veteran client called VAC to share what happened on the call, we immediately took action to address the situation and apologized to the client, a spokesperson for Veterans Affairs Canada said.

As directed by the Minister of Veterans Affairs, the Deputy Minister will oversee a thorough internal investigation into this matter and take any appropriate administrative actions necessary to ensure this situation doesnt happen again.

In addition, all VAC frontline staff will be provided training as a reminder of the expectations and the available programs and services offered by the Department to support the health and well-being of Veterans.

Under Canadian law, medically-assisted death can only be discussed between a primary care provider like a physician or psychiatrist and their patient.

By Lauren Berg (August 16, 2022, 6:55 PM EDT) -- A marketing and analytics company has sued the Federal Trade Commission in Idaho federal court over the agency's threat to challenge the company's sale of consumer geolocation data, which could be used to track people to sensitive places, like therapists' offices and reproductive health care clinics.

Kochava Inc. recently received a proposed complaint from the FTC taking issue with the Idaho-based company's alleged sale of time-stamped geolocation data from consumers' mobile devices, but Kochava denies that its customers can identify individuals or track their specific location from the services it provides, according to the complaint filed Friday.

TikToker Azure MacCannell (@livecomposed) shared some of the surprising objects around your home that might need to be cleaned.

MacCannell is a TikToker and mom who shares cleaning and organization tips. In a viral video that has racked up more than 7 million views, MacCannell shows that thoroughly cleaning your home requires more than simply sweeping floors and scrubbing windows. Hard-to-reach places like refrigerator coils and faucet screens need love, too!

The video begins with a shot of MacCannells refrigerator. Here are some things that might need cleaning, she writes in a caption. Then she shows off just how dusty the back of her refrigerator is. The coils on the refrigerator are coated in a thick layer of gray dust, which begins to disappear as she moves a vacuum cleaner back and forth across the coils.

Cleaning your refrigerator coils, she explains, wont just get rid of dust. It will also save you so much money by prolonging the life of your refrigerator.

Next up, MacCannell shows how to clean the space under your toilet seat. She unscrews the lid from a toilet seat and removes it, showing where grime has built up around the seats hinges. Using a disinfecting wipe, she carefully scrubs the grime off of the hinges until the toilet is sparkling clean!

Clean this and your bathroom will smell much better, she writes in a caption.

Finally, MacCannell shows how to clean the screen on your sinks faucet. She unscrews the screen, then drops it in a cup of cleaning fluid. Then she uses disinfecting wipes to wipe down the rest of the faucet.

Youll notice a difference in water pressure, she claims, showing off her now-sparkling sink as the video ends.

Viewers were surprised and horrified by the idea that their homes could be dirty without even realizing it.

I want these things clean, but Im too scared to look at how bad they are to actually clean them since Ive never done it before, one TikToker wrote.

I already have so much that I need to clean. I dont need extra, another overwhelmed viewer commented.

Me scrollin pretending I never saw this, joked another TikToker.

Cleaning hard-to-reach places might seem overwhelming, but MacCannell also makes it look extremely satisfying.

TNT sports sideline reporter Allie LaForce and MLB free agent pitcher Joe Smith had more than half a million dollars to celebrate during their HelpCureHD fundraiser at Minute Maid Parks Union Station. The former Houston Astros reliever and his wife are due to have their first child in November. And therein lies the story of this momentous fundraiser.

Smiths mother suffered and eventually lost her life, before her time, from debilitating Huntingtons disease or HD. The disease has a 50 percent genetic propensity of being passed on to the next generation. This inspired the Smiths to found HelpCureHD. This sporty couple have long been dedicated to saving their future children and the children of others from such a fate.

The first-ever HelpCureHD fundraiser was held at Tootsies in 2018 and subsequent events in Houston were also chaired by LaForce and Smith. Although Cleveland, Ohio, is their home, the couple has enjoyed exceptional support in their efforts from Houston and by the works of Houston-based Dr. Erin Furr-Stimming, a neurologist with clinical expertise is evaluating and treating patients with Huntingtons disease, and Dr. Dottie Roach, a specialist in fertility.

The Minute Maid Park evening raised a record $525,000, happy news for LaForce and Smith for whom the foundations mission is their mission. The funds are earmarked for research into a cure for Huntingtons disease and for grants to cover the costs of PGD-IVF (pre-implantation genetic diagnosis and in vitro fertilization) services that aid couples who have the possibility of passing HD to future generations. To date, 18 Huntingtons disease-free babies have been born through the foundation with seven more families, including the Smiths, pregnant with HD-free babies.

Astros joining in support of the cause were team owner Jim Crane and wife Whitney, right fielder Kyle Tucker, closerRyan Pressly and his wife Kat, former Astro (and current Oakland A)Tony Kemp, Astros senior vice president executive operations Jared Crane and his wife Adrienne, Astros sidelines reporter Julia Morales, and Astros vet and MLB Hall of FamerJeff Bagwell and his wife Rachel.

LaForce and Smith will also be conducting fundraisers for the national HelpCureHD organization in California, in Florida and in their shared home state of Ohio.

PC Seen: Marla and Matt Hurley, Jo and Jim Furr, Chris Stimming, Julie Chen, Amanda Boffone, Jessica Roupe, Dana Barton and Robert Clay, Jen and David Grisby, Iris Shaftel, Iraida and Danny Brown, Dean Putterman, Elizabeth and John Elder, and Dr. Sherri Levin.

From the moment I stepped through the doors of Le Mas De Vinci, I felt at home. The immaculate villa is tucked behind leafy green bushes down a country road outside of Lambesc, a quaint village near Marseilles in the South of France.

In a region known for its delicious wine and food, what you truly need on a trip to the South of France is a comfortable and relaxing place to dive into the culinary local delights. Where better to choose than a luxurious house full of character and charm?

Stepping away from the white-washed holiday homes devoid of personality, Olivers Travels offer a varied collection of rental homes that each offer something unique, and all stamped with owner Olivers personal stamp of approval.

A base to explore Provence

My own accommodation for a few days was Le Mas De Vinci, a property thats remote enough to feel secluded and calm, but still less than an hours drive from Marseilles airport. Enormous windows make you feel as though you're always out in the lush garden, whether youre napping in one of the squishy living room sofas, watching a film in the cinema room, or preparing food in the spacious kitchen.

The fully-stocked fridge on arrival was an excellent touch to create a sense of calm from the beginning of the trip, meaning I could kick back and relax after a long day of travelling, instead of rushing down to the local supermarket for cheese and wine.

Youd likely find yourself spending the majority of your time actually outside, however. The long trestle table means that everyone can eat al fresco together, even if the villa is at full capacity of 14 guests. The pool has been thoughtfully tiled with light green ceramic, making it blend in with the tiered lawn that flows down to the hedges that offer privacy from neighbours.

The various trees and bushes create pockets of the garden to enjoy, whether you want to read a book in the hammock by the pond, take a dip in the hot tub, or relax and recline by the pool. Flowers and vines thrive in the warm climate, climbing the walls of the house and the awning that offers the outdoor dining table a patch of shade.

Wine and dine in the sun

While it might be tempting to stay in the house throughout your trip, theres plenty to see and do in the area. A particular highlight was the truly incomparable Chateau La Coste.

Theres more to the sprawling grounds and villa that meets the eye and theres plenty to take in even at a first glance. The gently rolling hills offer a scenic walk through the art installations throughout the grounds, with a guided tour available throughout the day.

Once youve had your fill of the exhibitions, you can dine at a number of different restaurants on the premises, ranging from bistro-style food to fine dining. Of course, as a vineyard, its a must to sample some of Chateau La Costes own wine, as well as a number of other vintages from the region.

If one day is not enough to taste all that the vineyard has to offer, theres even a hotel located on top of the hill, offering stunning views across the grounds. For hotel guests, breakfast, wine tastings and chateau art tours are complimentary. There's also a fine-dining restaurant serving Argentinian cuisine, a spa, an outdoor pool, and landscaped gardens with secluded seating areas.

For more opportunities to explore, Le Mas De Vinci is just a stones throw away from popular towns like Aix en Provence, Cassis, and Marseilles, with Nice a few hours away by car. As well as offering plentiful shopping opportunities in the Cassis markets or the bustling avenues in Provence, youll be tripping over delightful eateries offering locally-sourced food and drink.

Hotel service without the hotel

Of course, sometimes you might not feel like heading out to a restaurant. As luck would have it, you can still avoid cooking and enjoy delicious food without leaving the comfort of the villa. For between 55 and 60 per person in the high season, a personal chef can come to the Villa and cook you and a minimum of five others a sumptuous three-course meal, all in line with any dietary requirements you may have.

Whats more, Olivers Travels are ready to assist with the concierge services that a hotel would usually provide. Many properties can be booked with the Villotel service, offering all the luxuries of a hotel including daily breakfast, maid service, welcome drinks, and concierge as standard. Staying in a quirky rental property doesnt mean you need to miss out on the local knowledge and assistance from a concierge

Getting to Aix en Provence

Although theres only one direct flight from Edinburgh to the closest airport of Marseilles on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, taking around two and a half hours, there are plenty of flights with one stop that only add two hours to your journey. Alternatively, there are train options available to Aix en Provence from Londons Kings Cross that take around six hours.

2022 rates for Le Mas De Vinci start from 4,163 for a seven-night stay for up to 14 people. The average price per night per person for Olivers Travels properties is 49. To book, visit http://www.oliverstravels.com or call 033 3888 0205.
