World Quality Day

World Quality Day is every year on the second Thursday of the last autumn month. In 2022, it falls on November 10th. This holiday is intended to raise awareness among private entrepreneurs, organizations, and companies of the high-quality standards needed to achieve financial well-being and prosperity. The first World Quality Day was held in London in 2008, and it has since become an annual event.

History

The Chartered Quality Institute (CQI) determines a new theme for the holiday each year, such as “Sustainability – how to improve products and people” or “Creating value for customers.” This institute was founded in 1919 and is a professional body whose activities are aimed at improving the quality of goods, products, and services. It currently has more than 20,000 members and is the only organization in the world that has the right to award the status of “Chartered Quality Professional.” It also controls the International Register of Certified Auditors.

One of the Institute’s tasks is to work with organizations and manufacturers to improve the quality of products. World Quality Day was first held on November 13, 2008, in London.

Interesting Facts

• The Institute’s mission is to create a world in which organizations can prosper and produce products that are valuable for consumers and all interested parties.
• The quality management system has four fundamental components: quality planning, quality assurance, quality control, and quality improvement.
• If someone wishes to become a quality specialist, they must have relevant work experience, be trained, and have three goals of continuous professional development.

How to Take Part

If you’re looking to master the profession of quality control, conduct a self-assessment to determine how well you meet the tasks and whether you have leadership qualities, relevant experience, skills, and knowledge. If you own a business or a manufacturing facility, implement a quality management system to improve your brand image and streamline your workflow. Finally, bring quality standards into your personal life, follow them, and teach them to your children.
