Workplace Needs Assessments

A workplace needs assessment makes recommendations for reasonable adjustments to the workplace. This assists employers to accommodate conditions which are commonly associated with cognitive differences.

In the assessment we look at how individual ability, work targets, environment and tools used are affecting the employee’s ability to carry out their role to a satisfactory standard.

To do this we will need to meet both the individual and either their line manager or HR representative. We can then consider what tools, technology, changes and coaching support the employee needs, and what is a reasonable adjustment.

Workplace Needs Adjustments Passport

A fast, affordable route to a personalised document of practical workplace adjustments; for the individual and the employer to understand, act on, and revisit over time.

The Passport gives individuals and employers a clear, expert-backed picture of what is needed — quickly and cost-effectively. It is designed to cut through uncertainty and move straight to practical recommendations.

A genuine conversation, not a tick-box

Your Assessor works closely with you to understand your role, its demands, and your day-to-day experience. Recommendations are practical and proportionate — shaped by what is achievable within the scope of your organisation.

Who it is for
Anyone who would benefit from a clear, professional picture of the adjustments that could help them at work — whether recently diagnosed, self-identifying, or simply noticing challenges. Equally valuable for employers.

Positive Assessments

A positive assessment is a short cognitive assessment which explores your innate talents and strengths. Our Psychologists will deliver a series of ability assessments, looking at verbal, visual and spatial skills. We look at different types of memory to find out where your strengths lie. After the testing, we’ll talk about how the results fit into your education and career outcomes, to inspire you and give you the confidence you need to achieve your goals.

Combined Assessments

A combined assessment is a workplace needs assessment and cognitive diagnostic assessment at the same time. The cognitive assessment will ascertain whether an individual does indeed have a condition such as Dyslexia, Dyspraxia and/or Dyscalculia.

The assessment can also highlight if the individual has a high probability for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The workplace needs assessment will make recommendations for reasonable adjustments to support these employees at work, which you are required to make under The Equality Act 2010.

Autism Assessments

Autism assessments are completed by two of our specially qualified psychologists who work alongside clinical and neurodevelopmental specialists. The Autism diagnostic process follows on naturally from a cognitive assessment.

Holistic Assessments

Holistic assessments start with a developmental case history, which allows us to look for evidence of Dyslexia, Dyspraxia (Developmental Coordination Disorder) Dysgraphia and / or Dyscalculia, as well as ADHD and Autism. We can then test to confirm which neurotype (s) is the best fit for your profile. For ADHD and Autism, there may be more than one testing session required.

We will then signpost you to any further support needed, included referrals to medical practitioners if appropriate. This will include how you can make the most of your strengths and how you can apply them at work.

What our clients say…
