Make your workplace Dyslexia-Friendly

The BDA Workplace Dyslexia-Friendly Pledge helps organisations build a better working environment. The pledge provides practical guidance, expert resources, and public recognition for your efforts. When you sign up, you’ll receive access to toolkits, support, and a Dyslexia-Friendly badge to show your commitment to inclusive workplace practices.

Why it matters

10–15% of the UK population is dyslexic — chances are, you already employ dyslexic staff.

Dyslexia is a protected disability under the Equality Act 2010 — employers have a legal duty to provide support.

Inclusive workplaces perform better — they attract talent, boost innovation, and improve retention.

Being dyslexia-friendly benefits everyone — clearer communication and better systems help all employees thrive.

Why sign the Pledge

Inclusion
Create a workplace where neurodiverse employees feel supported, valued, and able to thrive.

Innovation
Unlock new perspectives—dyslexic thinkers often excel in creativity, problem-solving, and big-picture thinking.

Productivity
Empower employees with the right tools and support to boost confidence and work more effectively.
