Purple Hiring and the Role of Artificial Intelligence: A Research Perspective on Neurodiversity in the Modern Workplace
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: In an era marked by progressive employment practices and increasing awareness of cognitive diversity, the concept of "Purple Hiring" has emerged as a transformative approach to inclusive recruitment. Purple Hiring refers to a dedicated initiative to employ individuals with neurodivergent traits, such as autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and other cognitive differences, recognizing their unique talents and potential contributions to the workforce. While traditional diversity and inclusion programs have predominantly focused on gender, ethnicity, and socio-economic status, Purple Hiring introduces a paradigm shift—placing neurodiversity at the center of human resource development strategies.
