A Guide for Employers: When your employee has Addison's Disease or Adrenal Insufficiency

When your employee has Addison's Disease or Adrenal Insufficiency

This updated leaflet is designed primarily for your employer.  You may want to give them a copy to help them to understand your condition if you are newly diagnosed, or if your needs have changed.   You may have moved jobs and have a new boss who isn't aware of your condition.   

We explain about Addison's and adrenal insufficiency, and what implications your condition may have on you at work. 

We explain the employers' responsibilities to make reasonable adjustments to support you at work. 

This booklet has been authored by the ADSHG and reviewed by the Clinical Advisory Panel.
