Only 10% of neurodiverse employees disclose their disability
Workplace environments are built with neurotypical employees in mind despite that 15-20% of the population is neurodiverse. Most neurodiverse employees don't disclose their disability to their employer. We avoid asking for reasonable accommodations out of fear of retaliation that managers will use our disabilities against us. Some simply don't feel safe disclosing a disability. However, a workplace can work toward better advocacy and more equitable environments with help.
