Empowering Occupational Health to Lead on Neurodiversity
Occupational health professionals play a critical role in identifying neurodivergent employees and recommending the adjustments they need to thrive at work. Lexxic partners with OH providers to build capability, expand service offerings, and deliver specialist neurodiversity assessment and support.
Talk to Our TeamThe Challenges Occupational Health Providers Faces
Knowledge & Capability Gaps
Most occupational health practitioners have limited training in neurodiversity, making it difficult to identify presentations, recommend appropriate adjustments, or refer effectively to specialist services.
Misattribution of Difficulties
Neurodivergent presentations are frequently misattributed to stress, anxiety, or performance issues, delaying appropriate support and potentially exacerbating the employee's difficulties.
Lack of Specialist Assessment Capacity
OH providers often lack access to chartered psychologists with neurodiversity expertise, meaning referral pathways are unclear and specialist assessments can be delayed or inaccessible.
Supporting Reasonable Adjustments
Providing employers with clear, actionable, evidence-based adjustment recommendations is challenging without specialist neurodiversity knowledge and assessment tools.
Intersectionality & Complex Presentations
Neurodivergent employees often have overlapping conditions and intersecting mental health needs, requiring a nuanced and holistic assessment approach that generalist OH practice may not provide.
Building Service Capability
OH providers looking to grow their neurodiversity service offer face challenges in sourcing qualified practitioners, developing appropriate service models, and building referral pathways.
