The video looks at how rising ADHD diagnoses are changing the world of work and what this means for employers. It follows Bahar, an IT executive at Capgemini with ADHD, whose London employment tribunal case found the company had discriminated against her by failing to provide recommended neurodiversity awareness training.
Using her story, the report shows that more people in work now have disabilities or long‑term health conditions, including a marked increase in learning difficulties and mental health conditions, and explains why neurodivergence is complex for businesses: needs vary across a spectrum, not every ADHD diagnosis counts as a disability, and employers must balance workers’ needs, legal duties, and business costs.
Employment lawyers interviewed describe a surge in queries, emphasise that many employees could do their jobs if given enough adjustments, and warn that if organisations “don’t get it right”, legal consequences can follow.
