Wednesday 15 April 2026 |Organisations across the UK are seeing a rise in neurodiversity-related workplace issues, from reasonable adjustment failures to discrimination claims. Employment tribunals involving neurodivergent workers have increased significantly in recent years, with many cases turning on simple adjustments, communication barriers or a lack of inclusive practices.
With one in seven people likely to be neurodivergent, every employer needs to understand how to support neurodiversity and meet legal duties in a practical, confident way.
In this webinar, we explored how to create a workplace culture that supports neurodivergent employees.
We discussed whether neurodivergence is considered a disability, how tribunals approach neurodiversity discrimination claims, and how employers can reduce risk by improving policies, communication and reasonable adjustment pathways. We also shared real case studies, lessons from recent employment tribunal decisions, and practical steps organisations can take to become more neurodiversity-friendly.
