How it works in KallosSim
- In practice language — Natural variation in how human brains process information, including ADHD, autism, and dyslexia.
- What it means — Neurodiversity refers to the natural variation in neurological function and cognitive processing. Neurodivergent conditions include ADHD, autism spectrum conditions, dyslexia, dyspraxia, dyscalculia, and acquired brain injury. Each has distinct characteristics but all may require adaptation in workplace communication: shorter meetings, written summaries, clear agendas, processing time, and reduced sensory stimulation. Under the Equality Act 2010, neurodivergent conditions frequently constitute disabilities — triggering the duty to make reasonable adjustments. Employers and practitioners should engage with the individual to identify what works for them rather than applying generic solutions. In social care and health contexts, unidentified neurodivergence is a significant factor in poor engagement and miscommunication.
