20% of UK employees are estimated to be neurodivergent. Between 2020 and 2021, employment tribunal claims featuring neurodiversity increased by a third. What do HR professionals need to know about the legal position?
On Wednesday 17 May at 10am, Lorraine Heard and Nicola Allen from our employment team will talk through these issues:
- What is neurodiversity?
- Are neurodiverse conditions a disability?
- Employers' obligations under the Equality Act
- The duty to make reasonable adjustments
- What can we learn from recent cases?
The second part of the webinar will provide a general employment law update, covering important recent cases and what's in the pipeline.
There will be a Q&A session. If you have a particular question you would like us to answer, please submit it on the registration form and we will try to cover it in the session.
