The idea in this research is to add propositional enrichment to the theory of learning at work (WPL) linked to the Indonesian Qualifications Framework (IQF) to achieve equalization of WPL learning outcomes through recognition to improve competitiveness and enhance workforce careers. The education level of the workforce in Indonesia is still the cause of the low competitiveness and productivity of the Indonesian workforce, where the Global Human Capital Index ranking for Indonesia's human resources is in 65th position out of 130 countries. Discussion of research articles on the IQF as the basis for regulations for equalizing learning outcomes through education, job training, and experience, so far only in the scope of education, has not found one that focuses on WPL. Content analysis in this grounded theory research was conducted on 29 documents from two companies with the characteristics of having professional certification bodies. The originality of this study, based on the three characteristics of WPL proposed by Stern and Sommerlad, identifies more specifically WPL practices by companies in the form of a model. The twenty propositions in this study can be continued in further research as hypotheses to be tested, as well as recommendations to the Indonesian government authorities and industry players to focus on WPL which refers to the IQF.
