Assistive Technology Assessments - Product Details

Assistive Technology Assessments are designed to support employees with specific needs in overcoming challenges in the workplace.

These assessments are particularly beneficial for neurodivergent individuals or those with disabilities who may experience barriers related to reading and writing, organisation and memory, sensory processing, physical access or communication.

Our professional, in-house assessor works closely with the individual to understand challenges faced in their workplace environment. Following the assessment, a comprehensive report is provided, detailing the findings and offering tailored recommendations to improve accessibility, productivity, and independence at work.
