Reasons to Disclose Takes the Pressure Off Disclosing to an employer can make you feel more comfortable in a position because you do not have to hide your disability or symptoms or worry about the effect of your medications etc. It also encourages honesty and you don’t have to feel like you are hiding something from your employer.

If required this allows your Consultant to negotiate duties that will match your skills and abilities.
