Participants received eight weekly sessions supported by coaching and structured exercises. Compared with a waiting-list group, participants reported improvements in ADHD symptoms and organisational skills, with improvements maintained at one-year follow-up. The study was relatively small

Authoritative Acas guidance specifically focused on neurodivergent workers. It gives practical examples such as quiet working areas, headphones, screen filters, written instructions broken into steps, visual planners, regular check-ins, additional reminders, extra planning time and advance warning of workplace changes. Acas stresses that adjustments should be based on the individual rather than diagnosis alone, and that workers do not necessarily need a formal diagnosis before support is considered.

A pragmatic randomised controlled trial evaluating the Let's Get Organised intervention against treatment as usual for adults with impaired time management.

An official Department for Work and Pensions planning tool designed to help students think through barriers and identify useful adjustments in education or employment.

GOV.UK provides both interactive and printable versions alongside supporting notes.

Practical NHS support material for adults with ADHD, including guidance on recognising emotional escalation, pausing before reacting, calming strategies, routines and other day-to-day coping approaches.

Practical autism-specific employment guidance with examples of workplace adjustments suggested by autistic people, professionals and researchers. Examples include clearer and more precise communication, agreeing preferred communication methods, changing sensory aspects of the workplace, altering working arrangements and providing appropriate supervision or support. The page emphasises that adjustments should reflect the person's individual needs rather than assuming every autistic person needs the same support.
