Hi everyone
I am currently applying for new jobs and as part of the application process there is a section asking if 'you consider yourself to have a disability'. I know that Ataxia is a disability, but can anyone advise what the implications are for ticking this box?
I was diagnosed with Friedreich's Ataxia in October 2021 (aged 30) and currently work full time. I work in a desk-based role and do not require any adjustments to do my current job.
I am just curious if anyone has experience with this and if it is a good idea to disclose this information in an application (note: you do not have to disclose your specific condition).
Thanks in advance!
Matt
