The main objective of conducting the literature review was to analyse work related to the management of programmers with disabilities, with a particular focus on dyslexia. A systematic literature review was conducted based on the PRISMA 2020 template. The databases providing the information were searched in June 2021 according to the due diligence principle. Out of 2324 papers, 90 literature sources were obtained after the first stage of the review and 2 articles after the second stage. The first article contains an outline of the profile of a dyslexic programmer and points to the lack of literature on dyslexic programmers. The second article relates to remote work during the COVID-19 pandemic, which is carried out by professionals from different industries including programmers – neuroatypical individuals. It was found that neuroatypical individuals often have specific communication needs and preferences, heightened sensory sensitivity, and challenges with executive functioning. The literature review performed indicates a research gap, despite the fact that dyslexia affects approximately 10% of the adult population. It is legitimate and valuable to conduct research on the different aspects of managing people in the IT industry – not just including programmers. The research gap found relates to under-researched areas, such as those related to managing employees including dyslexic programmers, which provides an opportunity for further research.
