Every workplace thrives when it’s people feel understood, valued, and supported. Yet, for employees who may be autistic or have ADHD, navigating the demands of a traditional work environment can be challenging—especially without a diagnosis.

Without the right support, talented employees may struggle with focus, organisation, social interactions, or sensory sensitivities, leading to stress, burnout, or difficulties in performance. But when employers take proactive steps to support neurodivergent staff, the benefits are clear. 

At Portland Assessments, we can provide professional autism and ADHD assessments to help employees gain clarity and access the accommodations they need to thrive. By investing in neurodiversity, you’re not just supporting individuals—you’re strengthening your entire organisation.

Gaining a diagnosis, or completing a screening, can provide the medical evidence required to access support and funding through the Disabled Students Allowance (DSA) and government Access to Work scheme. This valuable funding can support equipment such as laptops and specialist software; training; and specialist one to one support such as mentoring, coaching and study skills.
