Neurodivergent Conditions and Employee ADA Rights: What HR Needs to Know
Human Resources
Recorded Webinar
All Days
 60 Minutes
Description

Neurodivergent individuals—those with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, Tourette’s, and related conditions—often bring unique talents to the workplace: exceptional focus, creative thinking, and powerful pattern recognition. Yet many HR departments still rely on outdated frameworks for understanding and supporting these employees. Are you confident in your ADA compliance when it comes to neurodivergent workers? Do you know how to proactively handle accommodations before challenges arise? With 15–20% of people identifying as neurodivergent, it's time for your organization to be ready.

What You’ll Learn:

  • Reasonable Accommodations: Identifying and implementing solutions through the interactive process
  • Real-World Examples: How autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and more show up on the job
  • Pitfalls to Avoid: What not to say in reviews, interviews, or accommodation discussions
  • Proactive Support: Strategies to foster inclusion—and avoid legal pitfalls
  • Business Benefits: Leveraging diverse minds for innovation and competitive advantage
  • Inclusive Culture: Practical steps (without overhauling your policies)
  • Resources & Next Steps: Toolkits, templates, and further reading

Why This Matters:

  • Protect Your Organization
    Ensure compliance with federal law and reduce the risk of costly legal mistakes.

  • Take Action Early
    Learn to recognize early signs that support may be needed, before issues escalate into disciplinary or legal territory.

  • Unlock Team Potential
    Harness the often-overlooked strengths of neurodivergent employees to boost innovation, collaboration, and productivity.
