NEW! REVISED 2nd EDITION
The Employer’s Guide to Asperger’s Syndrome shows business professionals how to utilize the talents of a capable, intelligent, well-educated work force: individuals with Asperger’s Syndrome.
Asperger’s Syndrome is a recently recognized neurobiological disorder. People with Asperger’s Syndrome have a hard time understanding and responding to social cues and organizing time and tasks. The prevalence of Asperger’s Syndrome is estimated to be as high as 1 in every 250 people in the United States.
The Employer’s Guide to Asperger’s Syndrome, second edition, explains what Asperger’s Syndrome is and the specific strengths of “the Asperger mind.” Common workplace challenges experienced by these employees are discussed as well as what employers can do to create environments that are conducive to their success. The guide has been revised to include updated information about Asperger’s Syndrome and how some forward-thinking companies are making use of the strengths these individuals bring to the workplace. It now includes examples of low- and no-cost employer accommodations.
