Autism experts say this integration into the workplace is critical for those with autism to gain independence and improve their own quality of life. It’s not simply a stereotype to say that individuals with autism can possess astonishing and enlightened talents. Some with autism are highly artistic; some exhibit heightened memorization abilities; some are extremely adept with miniscule details.

Workers on the autism spectrum can contribute new potential and capacities to a company, thereby increasing not only the organization’s diversity, but also its range of capabilities. Thankfully, businesses are catching on to the advantage of hiring people on the spectrum.

This list features some of the top companies who are leading the push to integrate autism into their workplaces and actively hiring people on the autism spectrum.

thanks for the headsup

I need such a list for central Europe, even though I already applied at Specialisterne since the SAP HQ is not far from here.

Well that is a nice list.

Sadly none of that is located in Metro Detroit and I currently cannot afford to move across the country...
Well it is good for those who live within driving range.

It's frustrating how almost all of these are tech jobs. Plays into a stereotype that we're all gifted in that area, and that it's ALL we're good at.

Just it happens that most people with autism tend to do better doing tech jobs than other jobs. I used to think that I wouldn't be good at learning programming, however it turned out to be easy to learn and somewhat fun.

Turns out that this is nothing but bullsh!t. I went to check out The Badger Mountain Orchard because it's located here in my town, and when I went to talk to them about it. They didn't even know what I was talking about and I show them the website that the OP linked to, and they told me that it was false.

Wow that's crazy! Who'd go to the trouble of creating a false website to tell people they hire aspies?
