Understanding workplace needs is important. Being able to connect them with the right expertise is even better.
We’re pleased to announce a new partnership between Remtek Workplace and The Owl, bringing together specialist autism and ADHD assessment with individualised workplace support.
The partnership creates a more connected route for individuals and organisations, helping bridge the gap between understanding neurodivergent needs and putting support in place.
Why are we working together?
There is no single approach to supporting neurodivergent employees.
Someone may be looking for greater understanding of their experiences. Another person may already have a diagnosis but be unsure which adjustments could help at work. Others may need support with a specific barrier involving their environment, technology or communication.
The Owl specialises in autism and ADHD assessment, diagnosis and support, helping children, young people and adults better understand their experiences.
At Remtek Workplace, our focus is on what happens in the workplace.
We identify barriers and help individuals and organisations put practical support in place through services including:
- Workplace Needs Assessments
- Assistive technology
- Assistive Technology Training
- Ergonomic assessments and equipment
- Workplace Strategy Coaching
- Access to Work support
By working together, we can connect these areas of expertise and provide a clearer pathway between understanding a need and taking practical action.
What does the partnership mean for employees?
A diagnosis can provide valuable clarity, but it does not automatically tell someone what their working day should look like.
Workplaces involve different environments, tasks, technologies, communication styles and expectations. The support that works for one autistic or ADHD employee may therefore look completely different for another.
For example, practical support could involve adapting a workstation, introducing assistive software, exploring strategies through coaching or identifying adjustments through a workplace assessment.
Our approach starts with the individual rather than a standard list of recommendations.
The partnership with The Owl means we can also help create stronger links between specialist neurodevelopmental expertise and the practical support available in the workplace.
What does this mean for organisations?
Supporting neurodivergent employees can involve several different services and providers.
That can make knowing where to start difficult.
Bringing Remtek Workplace and The Owl together gives organisations access to complementary expertise across different stages of that journey. It gives employers another route to building support around the individual rather than expecting the individual to fit an existing way of working.
Designing workplaces around people
Neurodiversity isn’t something that only becomes relevant once somebody receives a diagnosis.
Different people process information, communicate, concentrate and interact with their environment in different ways.
This is why workplace design and support matter.
A well-designed workspace can consider everything from physical ergonomics and sensory needs to technology, communication and working practices.
Sometimes the change required is relatively small. Sometimes an individual may benefit from several types of support working together.
What matters is understanding the barrier first.
Our partnership with The Owl strengthens our ability to help organisations take that person-centred approach.
A more joined-up approach to neurodivergent workplace support
For us, this partnership is about connecting expertise.
The Owl helps individuals gain greater understanding through specialist autism and ADHD assessment and support. Remtek can help translate workplace needs into practical adjustments, strategies, equipment and technology.
Together, we want to make the journey between assessment, understanding and workplace support easier to navigate.
