Frequently asked questions
Do I need a diagnosis to ask for reasonable adjustments?
No. Acas says a worker does not need a diagnosis to be considered disabled under the Equality Act 2010, and employers should offer support whether or not someone has one. An employer may ask for evidence, but you are not legally required to provide it.
Do I have to name my condition in the letter?
No. You can focus on what you find difficult and what would help. Our builder only includes a condition if you choose to add it. Sharing more can help your employer understand, but it is your decision.
What if my employer says no?
Ask for the reason in writing and whether another adjustment could work. Acas offers free guidance on what to do next, and an employment tribunal has strict time limits, so get advice early.
Is Access to Work the same as reasonable adjustments?
No. Reasonable adjustments are changes your employer must legally make. Access to Work is a government grant that can help with support beyond that, and it will not pay for the adjustments your employer must make.
Is what I type saved?
No. The letter is built in your browser and is not sent to us. It disappears when you leave or refresh the page, so copy or print it first.
