Duane Morris hosted a webinar, “Establishing an Effective Neurodiversity Employment Program: Legal Issues in 2022 and Best Practices,” on Wednesday, June 1, 2022, at 2:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. Eastern.
About the Program
In recent years, more than 60 major companies in the United States have established targeted programs to hire adults with neurodiverse conditions – autism primarily, but also ADHD, dyslexia and a range of other learning differences. Further, the number of such targeted neurodiversity employment programs is growing in 2022, with new programs underway and in various stages of development.
In this one-hour webinar, a panel of business executives and Duane Morris attorneys will discuss the creation and structuring of neurodiverse employee programs and the positive results so far. The panel will also examine the operational and legal considerations that come with these programs and offer insights and strategies to address them.
