I want to understand about autistic adults difficulties which they face in workplace.

Hello everyone,

I am postgraduate student and I am working on a project to understand about

difficulties faced by autistic adults in their day to day life particularly in workplace.

By research, I came to know that autistic adults are facing a lot of problems in workplace,

but I am not clear about what exact problems they face. I want to create awareness

about their problems in offices so that they get maximum support at workplace. By doing so,

the gap between autistic adults and their colleagues may disappear.

Hopefully, everyone will start understanding them better. If anyone knows about it,

could you please help me in understanding about their problems?

  • People perceive me as rude sometimes because I am direct and honest. I can’t do the fluffy, fussy small talk. I want to just get on with the job. 

    I have to write everything down. 

    I can’t always grasp what people are saying. 

    Sensory difficulties are a constant torment - mainly noise. 

    Paperwork - particularly stuff which I feel is unnecessary - I’d rather keep info on computerised records, but my industry lags behind. 

    I’m logical rather than socially emotional which people don’t really like in women. I have few feminine traits.
