Creating neurodivergent-inclusive workplaces helps employers access diverse talent and foster inclusivity. In this blog by Jelena Petrovic, she references a UK study showing that neurodivergent individuals face significant employment challenges, such as precarious or temporary work. Flexible practices like homeworking and flexitime can greatly improve their outcomes, aligning them with neurotypical peers. The study calls for shifting from viewing neurodivergence as a disability to recognising its value, emphasising that workplaces—not individuals—must adapt to enable success.
