At Hays, we've witnessed a global surge in the demand for non-permanent workers, with organisations actively seeking skilled professionals to fill gaps.
But do you know what skills you need to be a contractor, or what the benefits of project work are?
In this presentation by Travis O'Rourke, President of Hays Canada, Travis shares insights into the benefits of life as a contractor, the skills needed to succeed and the steps to take.

Our 2015 edition provides an analysis of the employment markets and economic status of countries, featuring insights from Hays experts across the globe.
The document discusses the findings of the 2014 Hays Global Skills Index, which analyzes labor market pressures across 31 countries. Key findings include:
- Labor market conditions tightened across most countries as the global economy recovers, and pressures are likely to worsen as businesses fight for talent.
- The skills mismatch between the skills employers need and workers have worsened in more countries than it improved, which will make it difficult for businesses to fill roles and slow economic growth.
- Wage pressures increased in 2014 as demand for skilled labor rises, though wage growth does not yet appear abnormal compared to past trends.

2. 23
DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION have been major
areas of focus for many organisations in recent years,
and for good reason. A 2020 McKinsey study found
that companies in the top quartile for gender diversity
outperform their competitors by 25 per cent, while
those in the top quartile for ethnic diversity outperform
their competitors by 36 per cent.
And, while many organisations are taking steps to
improve the inclusion of workers from different ethnic
groups, genders or social backgrounds, other areas are
being overlooked.
Adults with brain differences such as autism,
Asperger’s syndrome, attention deficit hyperactivity
disorder (ADHD) and dyslexia are being left out of the
workforce in swathes. Looking at autism alone, the
problem is clear. In the US, 85 per cent of college
graduates with autism are unemployed. In Australia,
just 40 per cent of people with autism are employed,
compared to 83 per cent of people without a disability.
And in the UK, only 32 per cent of autistic adults have
‘some form’ of paid work, with 16 per cent holding
full-time roles.
SO MUCH TO OFFER
With such large numbers of employable neurodiverse
adults side-lined, what exactly are businesses missing
out on? Could improving neurodiversity bolster
much-needed skill sets?
Autism Europe suggests this may be the case. The
non-profit association says that while people with the
condition often struggle with social interaction,
communication and some cognitive functioning (such
as planning or prioritising), they are also predisposed
to display high levels of concentration, hold detailed
FIGURES SHOW THAT A LARGE PERCENTAGE OF
NEURODIVERSE ADULTS ARE BEING LEFT OUT OF
THE WORLD OF WORK. HOWEVER, THEY CAN BRING
MANY BENEFITS TO BUSINESSES. SO WHAT STEPS CAN
ORGANISATIONS TAKE TO HELP THESE PEOPLE THRIVE IN
THEIR WORKPLACE?
SPECTRUM
OF SKILLS
3. 24
factual knowledge or technical skill and have the
ability to excel at repetitive tasks. Similar skills are
also often seen in people with Asperger’s syndrome.
Meanwhile, a 2019 EY report indicated that people
with dyslexia often display the most in-demand skills
for the workforce of the future – leadership, creativity
and initiative.
Some of the abilities that many people with these
conditions possess are particularly useful for STEM
industries. Microsoft’s Autism Hiring Program and
IBM’s Ignite Autism Spectrum Disorder Program are
just two of the schemes set up by big-name tech firms
to hire more neurodiverse employees.
Meanwhile, an Israeli Defense Forces unit, Ro’im
Rachok (Hebrew for ‘seeing far into the future’), was
set up to include young adults on the spectrum. The
soldiers perform analytical intelligence work, visually
analysing aerial surveillance imagery. Launched in
2012, it now accepts around 80 applicants each year.
Carlene Jackson, CEO of tech company Cloud9
Insight – who is herself dyslexic – estimates around
20–30 per cent of her company are neurodiverse.
Describing the benefits these employees can bring, she
says: “Firms just need to understand the value of
having people that don’t think in a traditional way. We
find the ability to focus and be loyal are strong autistic
traits, while being creative and an out-of-the-box
thinker is a dyslexic’s contribution. Why wouldn’t we
want this in our business?”
US software and QA testing non-profit Aspiritech
has gone further still. Its entire workforce is made up
of people on the autism spectrum. Founders Brenda
and Moshe Weitzberg set up the business in 2008
after their autistic son Oran was turned away from
many jobs.
“Our clients benefit from an affordable, US-based,
highly skilled solution for their QA testing needs,” says
Brad Cohen, Chief Marketing Officer. “The staff gain a
well-paying job in a suitable environment that supports
their long-term employment. Everyone gains when
people are given the opportunity to use their skills for
meaningful, well-paying work that leads to a fully
independent life.”
The benefits are long-term as well; Aspiritech has a
retention rate of 95 per cent and team leaders and
managers are hired from within the organisation.
CHALLENGES TO OVERCOME
But while these reports and experiences indicate there
are many benefits to improving neurodiversity in the
workplace, the reality is that many organisations are
simply not set up to help these employees be
successful. One of the biggest challenges is around
improving understanding and awareness.
“Research we conducted found 32 per cent of UK
workers said their employer fails to offer additional help
or support for neurodiverse employees – but that’s
often because they’re unaware of it,” says Mike Blake,
Wellness Lead, Willis Towers Watson. “The first thing
employers have to do is accept they’re likely to have
neurodiverse staff in the first place. These are people
who might be suffering because they’re trying to do a
job that their neurodiversity makes very difficult.”
Organisations also need to ensure that, culturally,
colleagues are aware and accepting and thoughtful of
their different peers’ needs. “This is the tougher ask,”
says Dr Nancy Doyle, CEO of Genius Within: “The
paradigm shift is for everyone to ask ‘what is it
neurodiverse people can bring?’ Currently, thinking
around neurodiversity is still closer to disability and
discrimination legislation – about making reasonable
adjustments – rather than seeing it as a benefit in
the whole.”
When it comes to making adjustments to
recruitment practices, Aspiritech’s Cohen says there
are a number of barriers to overcome: “Primarily,
it is identifying the skills that a candidate has and how
to accommodate for their challenges. Specifically,
weak social skills, a lack of eye contact, and difficulty
with interviewing skills can hide the candidates’
true abilities.
“Awareness of these issues can open up
opportunities for both the job seeker and the employer.
There are many resources to assist employers with best
practices and tips on hiring.”
He says the secret to Aspiritech’s success in hiring
neurodivergent employees had been offering them the
support they need. “Even now during Covid-19, we
employ 116 QA testers who are autistic plus a handful of
support staff to help our autistic employees with both
hard and soft skills. We also offer daily and weekend
social activities, coding clubs, women’s groups and
many other planned free activities to build an
environment where our staff can shine and be effective
QA testers for our paying clients.”

Helen Needham, Managing Principal at global
management consultancy Capco, has experienced the
differences small adjustments can make first-hand. She
was diagnosed as autistic in her 40s and says that she
struggled with the decision to ‘come out’ in 2018. “My
condition means I can’t read people’s emotions the way
normal managers can. I was conflicted about opening
up,” she recalls, “because once you do, you can’t take it
back, and I didn’t want people to think it was me
excusing myself for a certain type of behaviour. What I
decided, though, is that this is simply me. My brain just
operates differently.”
Since revealing her autism, Needham, who also runs
the Me.Decoded forum for other autistic people, says
she’s had huge support. She now has what she calls
her ‘social bridges’ – trusted people who report back
to her the feelings of her team – emotions she might
have missed.
SETTING UP FOR SUCCESS
While there are challenges, there are some
organisations taking formal steps to set up
programmes to improve neurodiversity, and ensure
workers with differing needs and abilities are
catered for.
“Supporting neurodiversity requires HR directors to
think about more than just tapping into skills, or new
conversations that come as a result of thinking
differently, but being totally supportive of differences,”
says Nadya Powell, co-founder of Utopia and chair of
the diversity committee of the British Interactive
Media Association. Powell helped write Universal
Music’s recently launched Neurodiversity Handbook,
and consults on its ‘Creative Differences’ project aimed
at supporting its 10 per cent of staff who claim to be on
the ASD (Autistic Spectrum Disorder) scale.
She says that just by starting to talk about
neurodiversity, staff are learning to spot (and be more
accepting of) signs that their colleagues might be
different. But Powell and others accept being
neurodiverse isn’t easy.
For businesses looking to learn more, Cohen
encourages them to get in contact with Aspiritech as
the organisation is ready and willing to share its
experience. And for those looking to make concerted
efforts to make their work environment an easier place
for neurodiverse colleagues, he suggests simply taking
the plunge: “Just do it! Start by being really nice but
think about the social challenges that the candidate is
facing. Don’t forget that the skill and abilities are there.
“Once a person becomes an employee, find them a
mentor or co-worker who they can meet with. Ask the
employee what simple accommodations will make
them more productive. Many of these accommodations
are really easy; a quieter area to sit, noise-cancelling
headphones, a place to decompress or eat lunch
in private.
“Why not ask them to lunch or coffee? But don’t be
offended if their response is frank. Be clear about
communication protocols and listen to their ideas, you
will be surprised. With a successful hire, the loyalty and
long-term job retention will benefit everyone.”
