Around 15-20% of your workforce is likely neurodivergent. Most haven't disclosed it. And when someone does finally come forward with a request for adjustments, the response is often confusion.
Not because managers don't care. But because they've never been taught what their legal obligations are, what reasonable adjustments actually look like in practice, or how to have these conversations without making things worse.

Capable people quietly resigning
Sickness absence and presenteeism
Damaged team morale
Expensive recruitment cycles
Retained, loyal employees
Better performance across the team
A documented, defensible approach to your legal obligations
A reputation as an employer people trust
Fewer HR headaches
The Equality Act 2010 already requires employers to make reasonable adjustments for disabled employees, and ADHD, autism, dyslexia, and other neurodivergent conditions are recognised as disabilities under the Act.
Now the bar is rising further. The Employment Rights Act 2025, the biggest overhaul of employment law in a generation, is being rolled out in phases through 2026 and 2027. From October 2026, employers must be able to demonstrate they have taken all reasonable steps to prevent harassment across all nine protected characteristics, including disability. A one-off induction video won't cut it. Tribunals will want to see regular, tailored, documented training. And from January 2027, employees can bring unfair dismissal claims after just six months in a job, down from two years, with no cap on the compensation they can be awarded.
The question isn't whether change is coming.
It's whether your business is ready for it.
Lawyers tell you what the law requires. What they can't tell you is how to actually implement it, how to make adjustments that work, how to train your managers so they respond with confidence, and how to create a workplace culture where neurodivergent employees don't feel they have to choose between disclosing and protecting themselves.
What makes this different from legal advice
lawyers
Tell you what you must do but can't help you do it well.
HR consultants
Focus on process and often miss the human side entirely.
