Dyslexia in the workplace can be easily accommodated by disclosing difficulties to your employer. Employers are then able to help you complete your work by incorporating technology or other creative solutions. By recognizing that your work needs to be completed differently or admitting when things become too difficult, you are able to accomplish more and be more productive.

Learning how dyslexia works is the main key point you can’t fix anything without learning how it works

Employers must offer their support to employees with dyslexia. They should offer adjustments and accommodations to help employees complete their work-related tasks. Simple solutions can make a huge difference for employees with learning difficulties. You can find tips and suggestions on coping with workplace dyslexia on Facebook and Twitter.
Rosie Edmondson, who works as a Learning Support Assistant at a college (and is a regular blogger), says that for her the most important thing is the “opportunity to be honest about any day-to-day struggles as they happen.” She continues: “Employees may be worried about disclosing their difficulties but in doing so may be able to put in place accommodations to enable them to perform to their potential.”
