Neurodivergence is fairly common, so most workplaces are already neurodiverse. Yet, there is still a lack of understanding around most forms of neurodivergence, and misperceptions persist. It therefore makes sense for organisations to take steps that make their neurodivergent staff feel valued, part of the team and supported to contribute fully towards achieving the goals of the organisation.
Creating a more inclusive workplace can:
*highlight the employer's commitment to diversity and inclusion
reduce the stigma around neurodivergence
*make staff feel safe and empowered to disclose a neurodivergence
make it more likely that neurodivergent staff will be treated fairly by their managers and colleagues
*open the organisation up to a pool of talent that may otherwise have been overlooked
*help retain skilled staff and reduce recruitment costs.
