Are neurodivergent people getting the support at work?

Though the UK seems to be resisting the push to roll-back DEI initiatives, new research has shown only a third (34%) of neurodivergent individuals feel supported at work, while only 29% feel valued.

As we celebrate our progress in making our workplaces accessible and inclusive to neurodivergent people this Neurodiversity Celebration Week (17 – 23 March), the findings have highlighted a need for greater action and support.

While the majority feel they receive sufficient support (69%) – as businesses provide flexible work schedules (33%), quiet and private workspaces (31%), and the option to work remotely (27%) – much more needs to be done.
