Can I get help from my employer?

22 July 2010
Dyslexia is covered by the Equality Act 2010. This means that your employer may be obliged to recognise your difficulties and make reasonable adjustments based on your individual needs. In some cases this might mean that your employer may be willing to pay for an assessment and provide continuing support but you should discuss this further with your employer and/or HR personnel. You could also approach your union representative for advice and support.

Dyslexia Action may be able to  provide assessment and support in the workplace.
