In the latest episode of The Diary of an HR Consultant, Victoria from Ambridge HR responds to recent remarks made by Nigel Farage about autism — and explains why businesses need to take neurodiversity seriously. Farage’s suggestion that autistic individuals are “not quite normal” isn’t just outdated — it’s harmful. But rather than dwell on the controversy, this episode offers a constructive path forward. Victoria explores: - The value autistic individuals bring to the workplace - How businesses can support them through inclusive recruitment and workplace adjustments - Why this isn’t about being politically correct — it’s about good leadership, legal compliance, and unlocking talent. If you're an HR professional, business leader, or simply care about fair workplaces, this is a must-listen.
