Neurodivergent employees: AI's role in new work challenges

Disruptive change has driven the digitalization and transformation of work structures in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, with new types of work models increasingly finding their way into familiar work structures with lasting impact. This has triggered a rapid development as part of the New Work megatrend, which, alongside challenges such as teleworking, has created great opportunities such as better integration of individuals and certain groups of people, e.g. people with disabilities, into the primary labor market. Neurodiverse teams face particular challenges due to the changing workplace, especially in terms of communication, self-organization and working practices. This paper addresses these challenges and proposes solutions based on artificial intelligence (AI) to ensure the competitiveness of companies in the implementation of New Work methods and models and to counteract the shortage of skilled workers
