Event Summary

Everyone’s brain works differently, and approximately 15-20% of people are thought to be neurodivergent, representing a significant portion of the workforce. Employers are being urged to do more to support and recognise the value of employees with diverse learning, thinking, and processing styles.

We are pleased to give advance notice of Westminster Insight’s popular Neurodivergence in the Workplace Conference. Attend to hear how to make reasonable adjustments, promote inclusion, and offer flexibility in your workplace.

How can you shape your work environment to be more neuroinclusive? Leading experts will share supportive structures, policies, and cultures, while highlighting the benefits of a neurodiverse workforce – from increased productivity, performance and wellbeing, to reduced absence and turnover, and a wider talent pool.

Under UK equality law, employers are required to make reasonable adjustments for neurodivergent employees. With reforms to employment rights and proposed disability pay gap reporting on the horizon, this timely conference will help you to strengthen compliance, reduce risk, and improve data reporting and disclosure. Prepare for the launch of the Fair Work Agency – with new powers to inspect, fine, or escalate breaches of employment law – and take steps to protect your business against accidental non-compliance. We will explore what effective support looks like in practice, with advice for employers, both large and small.

With a focus on inclusive recruitment, onboarding, and progression, ensure your organisation attracts and retains diverse talent, and that neurodivergent employees are not overlooked or excluded.

Don’t miss this opportunity to share best practices, network with peers, and leave with actionable strategies to embrace neuroinclusion as a genuine organisational strength.
