Neurodiversity in Logistics

Global Connections:
Empowering Neurodiversity
in the Logistics Industry

The logistics sector has a critical role to play in powering the global economy. In the UK alone, the logistics industry employs over 2.6million people.  However, demand for trained and talented employees outstrips supply in the industry. Several reports indicate that between 63% and 76% of employers are facing recruitment difficulties as candidates do not have the right skills.

Research has also identified a lack of diversity in the industry, with an ageing and largely white, male workforce. 

Attracting and empowering neurodivergent talent could help to address the industry’s skills gap and increase diversity in the workforce.  

A neuro-inclusive logistics industry is good for business, it can bring:

  • Diversity of thought

  • Innovation

  • A positive work culture

  • Improved customer relationships

  • Enhanced employee performance, engagement & wellbeing

  • Increased retention

  • And more!

Diversity and inclusion are also increasingly important to clients and investors.

Many neurodivergent individuals often have skills relevant to the roles required in the industry, including practical problem solving, the ability to spot patterns and trends, logic, attention to detail and an ability to develop and adhere to processes. Others have the skills needed for strategic and leadership roles, such as big picture thinking, creativity, adaptability and strong verbal skills.
