Employability toolkit

At BeyondAutism we are passionate about increasing employability. We want to see more autistic people with the skills and confidence to enter the work place. At the same time we want employers to feel more confident in supporting autistic people at work.

This toolkit, funded by the City Bridge Foundation, will give autistic people improved access to, and support in, employment. Download the free toolkit and additional resources today, now with an easy read version.

60% of employers are worried about getting support wrong, and don’t know where to go to get information about supporting autistic employees.¹

Employers, are you:

• Looking for autism employment support?
• Unsure how to support people with sensory needs?
• Wondering how you can help people develop?

You’ll find this and much more including examples of reasonable adjustments. Download the pack or request a hard copy to get started. You can also enrol in our free employability training; all about autism and employment and how to create an inclusive working environment.

Individuals will:

• Learn about the different definitions around work.
• Get useful information about access to funding.
• Be able to fill out a vocational profile personal to them.
• Get your toolkit in easy read format here.

In the additional resource pack you will find blank templates of the tools used in the toolkit.

Your donation will make the difference

We want to ensure that this resource remains free and accessible to all. Just £10 could cover the costs of printing and distributing up to three toolkits to those looking for support. If you’d like to make a donation, you can do so here.
