How to embrace neurodiversity in the workplace Neurodiversity isn't a new term, and it certainly should not be considered a buzzword. While creating and fostering neurodiverse workforces has been more frequently discussed over the past decade, it's rarely acted upon despite the vast societal and economic benefits of an integrated workforce that includes and accommodates individuals with different abilities. https://ow.ly/fX9B50TnC8g #neurodiversityintheworkplace #neurodiverseworkforces #integratedworkforce BenefitsPRO

There are so many benefits to supporting neurodiverse employees at work. By developing strategies for an inclusive workplace, you can increase your team morale, boost productivity, and attract the very best talent. Neurodiversity is in the spotlight, and for good reason. Statistics show around 1 in 7 of the population are neurodivergent* – that’s 15% of people who bring a new perspective and unique strengths to work. But for many employers it can be difficult to know where to start, and ensure that they are offering the right support where it’s needed. So, how do you create an inclusive workplace to help every neurodiverse employee be their best self?

Our workplace needs assessments can help identify areas of support that allow neurodivergent employees to thrive at their jobs and advance their workplace experience. If you’re an employer, conducting a workplace needs assessment helps you make reasonable adjustments for your employees. These adjustments can address challenges related to disabilities or neurodiversity, fostering a more inclusive work environment. Workplace needs assessments play a pivotal role in promoting equity, supporting employees, and creating a neuro-inclusive workplace. They empower both employers and employees to make informed decisions and foster a positive work environment.
