Overview

The Law, in an employment situation, provides women with extra protection during the Protected Period to safeguard against unfair or discriminatory treatment. This course defines the “Protected Period” and explores what protection there is during pregnancy for female workers. We will consider the ways which a pregnant woman must be safeguarded from risks and hazards in the workplace. This course looks at the types of discrimination which can occur and responsibilities of both the worker and the employer to prevent unfair or unsafe treatment during the Protected Period.

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.
