It is an integrated approach towards continual improvement and improving workplace culture. Essentially, it represents good housekeeping that entails the effective organisation of the workplace and maintenance of standard conditions and discipline required to do a good job. A visitor's first impression of a business is important since image affects the amount of business it does.
