My Ex-Employer Discriminated Against My ADHD, So I Sued Them! Misdiagnosed with Depression - Parul Singh | Ep.12

<p>This week, Parul Singh shares the story of how she won a legal case over an ex-employer for ADHD discrimination.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>Parul is a Recruitment Marketing Partner and Neurodiversity Advocate at xDesign, and an ex-tech recruiter. She was diagnosed with ADHD at aged 25 and uses her platform to awareness about neurodiversity in the workplace and in the recruitment process to build a more equitable future for neurodivergent people. </p><p><br>In order to make a bigger impact, she created a new role at xDesign, "Neurodiversity Advocate” in which she works closely with the People Team to lead the internal neurodiversity community. We all know how important it is to feel less alone. She also feeds into internal policies, processes and supports other neurodivergent employees at xDesign. As a woman of colour, she also puts a spotlight on intersectionality within Neurodiversity and the compounding impact that being from multiple minority groups has on barriers we face” </p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>Topics:</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>00:00 What are your earliest ADHD memories</p><p>04:29 Unhealthy sources of dopamine</p><p>11:00 Misdiagnosed with depression + finally getting an ADHD diagnosis </p><p>18:47 Normalising ADHD in life + at work</p><p>22:38 How did you feel after your diagnosis?</p><p>28:52 Imposter syndrome</p><p>32:00 Winning a discrimination tribunal + Neurodiversity in business</p><p>38:13 What is disability discrimination?</p><p><br></p><p>Find Parul on LinkedIn 👉 https://www.linkedin.com/in/theadhdtechrecruiter/</p><p><br></p><p>Here's the link to the ADHD/ND resources : <a href="https://theadhdtechrecruiter.notion.site/ADHD-Neurodiversity-Resources-1-0983dc5d52aa400d9225973d940b2287" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://theadhdtechrecruiter.notion.site/ADHD-Neurodiversity-Resources-1-0983dc5d52aa400d9225973d940b2287</a> </p><p><br></p><p>Specific ones relating to this discussion: </p><p><br></p><p>👉 <a href="https://www.gmb.org.uk/sites/default/files/neurodiversity-law-guide.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://www.gmb.org.uk/sites/default/files/neurodiversity-law-guide.pdf</a> </p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>👉 <a href="" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/138118/Equality_Act_2010_-_Duty_on_employers_to_make_reasonable_adjustments_for....pdf</a> </p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>Subscribe and be the first to know about Live events 👉 https://bit.ly/3KawML7</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>Watch on YouTube 👉 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_HZMBt0Fr8</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>Follow ADHD Chatter:</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>LinkedIn 👉 https://bit.ly/3m1qm8Q</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>Instagram 👉 https://bit.ly/3KuNXIr</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>TikTok 👉 https://bit.ly/3ZxZNGd</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>This episode has been produced for entertainment purposes only and is in no way meant to be taken as medical advice or advice in any way.</p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
