In this clip cut from the full episode, Sir Robert Buckland outlines the key findings from the Buckland Review of Autism Employment, which focuses on breaking down barriers autistic individuals face in the workforce. He discusses crucial steps such as reducing stigma and launching the Neurodiversity Employers Index, alongside the review’s 19 recommendations.

Sir Robert also explains the next steps, including the formation of a dedicated task group to oversee the implementation of these recommendations, along with speeding up existing support programs like Access to Work. The task group will play a pivotal role in advising on policy, reforming recruitment processes, and supporting employers in creating more accessible workplaces.
