Workplace needs assessments
With or without a formal diagnosis
Dyslexia, dyscalculia, ADHD, autism and dyspraxia can affect working life in many different ways. You may find aspects of your role difficult, need advice about reasonable adjustments or want practical strategies that work with your individual strengths.
Whilst I occasionally offer coaching around neurodiversity and ADHD, my main focus regarding work is around workplace needs assessments to identify helpful adjustments and support.
I bring around 25 years’ experience in neurodiversity, employment and education. I am a qualified Workplace Needs Assessor, ADHD coach and Neurodiversity Strategy Coach (Workplace).
Workplace needs assessments
A workplace needs assessment looks at the demands of your role, the areas you are finding difficult and the practical adjustments that could help. You don't need to have a formal diagnosis already in place. I have separate meetings with the employer and employee before writing a report setting out recommended adjustments and support.
Beforehand, there'll be short questionnaires for the employer and employee to complete. The employee's questionnaire will also include some screenings to identify signs of neurodiversity that may not have already been picked up and I can signpost to places offering assessments.
The focus of the assessment is about the job and therefore it's not a formal diagnostic assessment. However, I offer a reduced fee for those wishing to pursue a workplace needs assessment and a full diagnostic assessment.
Cost of a workplace needs assessment: £475
Assessments are usually available within three weeks of receiving the completed employee and employer questionnaires.
