Neurodiversity in the Workplace

In tourism and hospitality, we know the value of equity, diversity, and inclusion to serve our customers better, and make all customer experiences great in BC. Psychological safety includes having a sense of belonging and feeling valued and respected. 

Want to learn more about some great foundational ways you as an employer can support Neurodiversity in your workplace? Check out this Employer Resource Booklet from worktopia.ca.

Increased support for neurodiversity in the workplace benefits everyone.  For example, the Centre for ADHD Awareness Canada estimates that the disproportionate unemployment and under-employment and lower workplace productivity of employees with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) can cost the Canadian economy anywhere from $6 billion to $11 billion annually.1
