I've tested it, and my tests show that it doesn't work. The guy we have in RUb 1.42 with the two qualifications (watch and steering) doesn't have any added effect on the compartment efficiency for his second qualification (steering if I recall correctly). The extra qualification is recognised in the game, in that it shows up, but it doesn't seem to do anything, as far as I can see.

It may be that I've had some weird glitch that prevented it from working both times I tested it directly, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't work. Another alternative is that it only doesn't work with steering - I haven't tested other compartments. The other possibility is that pre-assigned extra quals don't work.
