Many students and graduates with a disability, health condition or neurodiversity worry about whether to tell a prospective or current employer. In legal terms, this is referred to as ‘disclosure’.

Understanding the law will allow you to advocate for yourself and know your rights as a disabled job-seeker or employee.
