At Manufacturing Skills Queensland, we are committed to making the jobs portal accessible to all users, including those with disabilities. Here’s how we’re addressing accessibility: 

Standards-Based Design: Our Work in Manufacturing jobs portal is designed in accordance with recognised accessibility standards, including the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, to ensure a more inclusive experience for all users.
