Cleaning Services WSQ Level 3
The PWM Cleaning Services: WSQ Cleaning Chemical Handling (Level 3) course offered by Greensafe International in Singapore is a practical training program designed for those working in the cleaning industry who want to handle cleaning chemicals confidently and safely. It is especially useful for supervisors and team leaders who are responsible for guiding their team in chemical cleaning tasks.
Cleaning chemicals are a daily part of work for many cleaners and facility teams. If these substances are not handled correctly, they can harm people, damage surfaces, or create unsafe conditions. This course teaches participants how to understand different chemicals, use them the right way, and follow safety procedures that protect both workers and the environment.
Who Should Take This Course
This course is especially suitable for people who are already working in cleaning services, particularly in supervisory or team leadership roles. These learners are expected to coordinate chemical use, monitor staff performance, and make sure cleaning operations run smoothly and safely.
What You Will Learn
During the training, participants learn both the knowledge and hands-on skills needed to deal with cleaning chemicals, including:
Understanding the properties and types of cleaning chemicals.
Learning chemical safety symbols and what they mean.
Identifying the correct personal protective equipment (PPE) to use.
Knowing how to measure and allocate the right amounts of chemicals.
Communicating work assignments clearly to team members.
Recognising risks and taking action if something goes wrong.
By the end of the course, participants are better prepared to make informed decisions about chemical use, improve workplace safety, and support quality cleaning services. This not only helps protect workers but also raises service standards in the broader cleaning industry.

The training typically runs for about 13 hours and includes both classroom instruction and practical assessments. Graduates receive certification that can help with career progression and meet the requirements set out under Singapore’s Progressive Wage Model (PWM) for cleaning services.
For many learners, funding support through SkillsFuture and other schemes makes the course affordable, helping individuals and cleaning businesses invest in essential skills development.
