The Disability and Discrimination Act talks about “dyslexia” as the hidden disability. It is characterised by mistakes with reading, writing and spelling. People with dyscalculia make mistakes with maths; those with ADD/ADHD experience problems with organisation and time keeping. Lack of knowledge and understanding can lead to discrimination.
Why do employees with these problems benefit a workplace? It is because they are often extremely: talented, innovative, creative, dynamic, intuitive, charismatic, excellent problem solvers. However, there can be problems; when under stress mistakes can be made, performance can be inconsistent, which can cost time, effort and money to sort out.
How can this be turned around, so that the benefits remain and the negative problems disappear?
