Disability, Neurodiversity, and Remote E-working: Promoting the creation of an inclusive workplace (Remote for All)
This project aimed to fill a gap in understanding the impact of remote e-working for disabled and neurodivergent workers (DNW)*. This population of workers might be overlooked by employers, therefore becoming invisible and unable to work in a way that best supports their needs and capabilities.
Invisible Disabilities in Education and Employment
Disability occurs in many different forms. An invisible disability, or non-visible disability, is an impairment or health condition that is not immediately obvious. This POSTnote provides an overview of invisible disability in the UK. It outlines types of invisible disabilities and relevant legislation and policy. It also discusses the experiences of adults with invisible disabilities, and strategies aimed at increasing access and inclusion for adults with invisible disabilities, focusing on employment, and higher and further education.
Study highlights need for remote working policy to help level the playing field for workers with disabilities and/or neurodiverse conditions
A new research study led by Coventry University highlights the need for an overarching government policy on remote working to help level the playing field for disabled and neurodivergent workers.
