Overview

Everyone seems to be aware of their obligation to keep a workplace clean. This is why company owners often hire professionals to scrub down offices at night or go through periodic shutdowns. However, good housekeeping at work requires a lot more than simply using cleaning products. It also means keeping your own workspace free from obstacles and debris that could cause trips or other hazards. Practicing good housekeeping at work ensures that the workplace is safer and as free from injuries as possible.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
