Neurodiversity Celebration Week business toolkit – Bupa

[SPONSORED CONTENT]

 

March 21-27 marks the annual Neurodiversity Celebration Week. Here’s why it matters for your clients.

The term neurodiversity refers to the way that everyone’s brains naturally work differently from one another.

Around one in seven people are neurodivergent, which means they behave, think, process, and interpret information in ways that differ to most other people.

 

How does this affect your clients?

Traditional working practices are often designed with a neurotypical society in mind, which can make it difficult for neurodivergent employees to thrive at work.

For example, having neurodivergent traits may create challenges navigating settings where there are social expectations, which can cause or be associated with mental wellbeing difficulties.

This Neurodiversity Celebration Week keep your clients and their employees informed via our downloadable neurodiversity toolkit.

People who are neurodiverse may need extra support in the workplace, including mental wellbeing support.

 

Employers should consider:

At Bupa, our Mental Health Advantage includes ongoing support for as long as needed with no restrictions for reoccurring conditions.

This offers neurodiverse colleagues the confidence of ongoing support for their mental wellbeing in the workplace.
