What attributes do you most require from your workplace?

pietro_21

Or what attributes do you feel were missing in your workplace? Ie. I feel I need support, inclusion and  respectfulness from others. Sometimes just having my ideas listened to without being judged. I believe in lifelong learning and in learning from being around others its often dissapointing when people do not abide by rules or their values fall short.

  • I would like is for organisations to have robust reasonable adjustment policies.

    Training for all managers on neurodiversity and autism.

    Change the internal biases and sterotyping by managers with regards to autism in the workplace.

    HR departments to work in the best interests of staff as well as the organisation. Too often the stance taken is purely about protecting the organisation to the detriment of the employees.

    Real action on discrimination not just tick box exercises to look compliant and progressive.

    Unions to stand up for autistic members and be prepared to fight for them in the courts.

    In the real world the term reasonable is vague and too often subject to managers interpretation with all their biases and needs to be able to be challenged.

    I was once hopeful that help to circumvent my barriers would be forthcoming because of the protection of the Equality Act but after witnessing at first hand after a career of over thirty years I am now totally disillusioned and broken.
