Hidden Disabilities in the Workplace

Build a neuroinclusive workplace that supports talent and reduces the risk of legal claims.

Hidden disabilities in the workplace - including neurodivergent conditions such as autism, ADHD, dyslexia and dyspraxia - affect a significant part of the workforce. Yet too often, these conditions are misunderstood or unsupported, putting employees at risk of exclusion and employers at risk of legal challenge.

This practical, 60-minute webinar is designed for HR professionals, people managers and business leaders who want to create a more inclusive working environment - one that values different ways of thinking, processing and working.

Delivered by employment law solicitors with expertise in neurodiversity at work, the session offers practical insight into legal duties, inclusive adjustments and positive cultural change.

What we cover in this webinar

• Legal protection for hidden disabilities – how the Equality Act 2010 applies to neurodivergent conditions.
• Reasonable adjustments – what they look like in practice and how to implement them effectively.
• Common legal and cultural risks – including unconscious bias and communication barriers.
• Real case studies – practical examples of what went wrong, and how it could have been avoided
• Inclusive workplace practices – policies, leadership and training that support all neurotypes.
• Responding to challenges – with early intervention, legal awareness and practical support options.
