Hello,

It's Labourer (Cleansing Department) [deceased]

Will have presumably worked for the local council keeping the place sanitary - street sweeping, bins etc.

Best wishes

It looks like a Scottish certificate and I have read *thousands* of them, which definitely helps!

Well, that and the fact that my own great-grandfather worked for the cleansing department....  ;D
