QASA understands that skills development and employment are key issues for persons with disabilities. We believe that it is essential for these people to gain the necessary skills so as to have the opportunity to gain meaningful employment, which in turn leads to independence, sustainability, social integration and dignity.
QASA aims to improve the participation of persons with disabilities by providing them with employment opportunities. In addition, the association encourages positive change in perception and attitudes within the corporate sector towards disabilities.
Our Employment Project is building an updated and comprehensive database of people with disabilities and their skills. CVs are stored on the QASA CV database and QASA engages with employers and recruitment agencies to facilitate opportunities for our members on the database.
