Sharing diagnostic report

RnR

Could I ask for a quick sense-check from the group?

My workplace HR are setting up a meeting to discuss some adjustments that I have suggested (yay!), but are requesting access to my full diagnosis report (err...).

There is information in the report which I deem to be personal and irrelevant to my working life - are they right to request this? Am I making an issue where there isn't one? I thought about creating a redacted copy to send to them, but thought I would check if anyone had any better ideas / suggestions / advice first!

Thank you all for your support.

  • I think the redacted copy sounds perfect. I’m not working now and only recently diagnosed, but I definitely wouldn’t have allowed my old employers to see my full autism diagnosis report. I too have things in mine that I wouldn’t want to share. To add to Bunny’s useful information, you could keep the NAS information handy to forward on to your employers if they aren’t happy with the redacted diagnosis. 

    If there continues to be a problem, you could ask your GP to provide a summary of the relevant report for your employers. There may be a charge for this but your employers might pay for it.
