This toolkit is the result of in-depth qualitative research with autistic working women and covers their experiences, insights into current employer practices, and recommendations for positive change in terms of policy and leadership. It draws on in‑depth interviews with autistic women and highlights that many are underdiagnosed, face workplace misunderstandings, and often mask their traits to avoid stigma often leading to stress and burnout.
