Workplaces

Workplaces can often be sites that perpetuate structural stigma.

Workplace cultures that value productivity over wellbeing, can result in neurodivergent folks being further marginalized in hiring, workplace and firing policies. For example, a lawyer that disclosed he had previous psychiatric treatment was subjected to numerous examinations that evaluated his mental health competence. Workplaces that do not offer adequate accommodations or flexible schedules can further disadvantage neurodivergent folks. In what ways do you think structural stigma can manifest itself within the site of the workplace?
