Responsible business

Giving something back

‘Giving something back’ is at the heart of SQA’s Responsible Business Strategy.

We aim to:

• nurture talent and help our people fulfil their potential
• promote equality, improve young people’s chances of employment, and actively support local charities
• reduce our impact on the environment from energy use, travel, disposal of waste, and water use
