Your sequencing is unclear but yes you will need to follow up if they appear to be suitable.

Hi Catherine,

Just signposting some related discussion threads. There are some nuggets in many of them that you may find helpful. 

 Practicalities of Reasonable Adjustments 

 Pre-existing medical conditions and sick days 

 Responsibility for reasonable adjustments at interview 

 Applicant with disabilities 

 What would you do - Disabled candidate in Recruitment? 

 Disclosure of a disability/health condition 

 Reasonable adjustment conversation at interview 

Also, do look at our Disability and employment factsheet.

In reply to Peter Stanway:

thank you Peter. So yes we have since employed them however on completing our joining paperwork, they have indicated that they do not have a disability (and require no adjustments)

In reply to Catherine Fleming:

You need to talk to them. They may fear something or believe they can cope perfectly well despite their dyslexia

Hi Catherine, the individual may not feel that their dyslexia impacts the ability to complete that particular role. However may have felt they needed some adjustments for interview, for example if psychometric tests are involved. Im Dyslexic myself I never used to inform my employers as my dyslexia is not that noticeable. However in my current employer have and no reasonable adjustments are required. Agree with Peter about having an informal chat with the individual

Hi Catherine,
similar to James I never inform my employer that I'm dyslexic. If I feel there are tasks were I specifically need different support I would say it.

On an additional not, you state they informed you of a potential disability. Dyslexia falls under learning difficulty and is not a disability. Not sure how this is worded on you from but maybe something to check. I personally would only indicate that I might need adjustments.

Definitely check in with them and ensure they know the right process should they need adjustments down the line.
