Guide for Employers of People Diagnosed with MND

Supporting someone in the workplace after an MND diagnosis can feel overwhelming — but the right information helps employers respond with confidence and care.

One employer who recently worked with our Support Advisor shared: “I appreciate the clear direction on next steps for supporting our colleague — it’s incredibly helpful.”

Our Guide for Employers of People Diagnosed with MND is a practical resource that explains what MND is, what changes to expect, and how workplaces can provide meaningful, flexible support. It’s free to download or print from our website.

This work is part of our commitment to:

💙 Tailored Support – providing personal, consistent, culturally appropriate guidance to every person affected by MND in Aotearoa.

💙 Practical Education – offering clear, timely, and reliable information that builds understanding across care teams and communities.

Resources like this are made possible thanks to grants, donations and fundraising from people who believe in supporting the MND community.
