In the Soviet Union, Quality Day never existed, because there was no most important thing - the notorious quality. Perhaps this same quality was present only in the defense industry, but to the common man, thirsty for sausage and spectacle (movies at 21.30 on Channel One), did not give a damn about the quality of warheads. And if there is no quality, then there is no official holiday. And then, what is quality? Neither touch it, nor put it in your pocket, nor give it as a gift.

World Quality Day: what about Russia?

Now times have changed. And if earlier a milkmaid from the state farm “Ray of Communism” had no complaints about the set lunch at the “Romashka” sanatorium, today this same collective farmer writes devastating reviews about her past holiday in Egypt, lamenting the small selection (only 10 types) of cheese slices at breakfast .

And why all? Because the quality is growing, not only of goods and services, but also of customers. We have become spoiled, which means that manufacturers are obliged to take us into account.

European procession of World Quality Day

In general, in “decaying” Europe, World Quality Day was also introduced not so long ago – in 1989. The uproar was caused by the European quality organization of the same name, which was founded back in 1956. It turns out that there was quality, but there was no official Quality Day. In total, this organization consists of 46 states. Surprisingly, Russia is among the participants in quality life!

Quality Day: European and Russian recognition

The holiday began to be celebrated only in 1990, and even then after a magical kick-off from the UN, they say, it’s time, dear friends, to think about quality. Apparently, the United Nations has absolutely no other problems. There is no Sudan, Somalia, Equatorial Guinea and other countries where there is no such thing as quality in their national languages. Well, these are no longer our problems!

Quality Day: perceptions of other countries

In those countries of the world where the state, and at the same time all its citizens, are truly fighting for the quality of life, rallies, meetings and processions are held in support of high-quality, harmless and necessary goods. Along with consumers, producers also participate in these actions, thereby emphasizing that they exist not only for the sake of profit. True, in some, especially “decaying”, Western countries, clashes with the police occur. Local residents fight too zealously for this very quality. In our country, people began to think about quality not so long ago, so if you have not yet thought in your spare time about the quality of your life, as well as the lives of your relatives and friends, then now is the time.

When is World Quality Day celebrated in 2020?

In Russia and all over the world, Quality Day is celebrated annually on the second Thursday of November. In 2020, the date for celebrating World Quality Day will be November 12.

The quality of our life is determined by many factors. Among the long list of important items, the quality of those goods and services that we use daily or from time to time is also of significant importance.

How often have we encountered or heard about the failure of a particular product or service? Many of us have to admit this almost every day. These negative aspects undoubtedly cannot add to our health or psychological comfort; they keep us in constant, very often excessive tension, causing mistrust and anxiety. In modern consciousness, a whole problematic has already been formed when talking about quality. Has the modern economic worldview relied on low or absent quality? Why are there so many low-quality goods on the shelves of our stores?

No. Progressive global community, observing these negative trends, since 1989, it has openly declared its strong protest on this issue, establishing World Quality Day.

The initiators of this date in our calendars, according to the project website, were world-respected public organizations, including the European Organization for Quality and the American Society for Quality Control, the Japanese Union of Scientists and Engineers and the Latin American Organization for Quality. With the support of the UN, World Quality Day has become an annual event and is set for the second Thursday of November. In 1995, the European Quality Organization declared the week in which World Quality Day is celebrated to be European Quality Week, in which conscientious producers, with the support of public organizations and executive authorities organize numerous exhibitions and hold all kinds of events in support of the principles of quality of goods and services produced.

We all understand that quality problems did not arise out of nowhere. Their emergence was actively promoted by rapid economic growth and tough, sometimes brutal competition, when unscrupulous producers put their personal mercantile interests in the name of quality. This applies to everyone, including even a number of famous brands. But practice proves the inconsistency of this position. Unsatisfactory quality acts as a deterrent and extremely negative in economically factor for the entire global community, for every consumer.

On this day, we join this global initiative and wish us all to have to deal as little as possible with the outright hackwork of our unscrupulous manufacturers. Buy, acquire and use only items and services of those who protect your nerves and health, providing you with products of decent quality. It will not necessarily be more expensive, since high prices are often used by criminals to deceive consumers. Let us be attentive and the quality of our life will begin to grow, removing unnecessary worries from us and allowing us to truly enjoy life, because it is beautiful and amazing.

The sturgeon was sent second freshness - ... this is nonsense! ...
There is only one freshness - the first, and it is the last.
And if the sturgeon is second freshness, then this means that it is rotten!
