Actually I'm wrong, they can ask under some circumstances, pic related.

So an employer without a good understanding of autistic spectrum disorders might think they're within their rights to turn you down for a job which requires, say, good social skills for customer interaction, even if you could actually handle that and they're just making assumptions based on a label. I'm not sure how that'd play out IRL. It'd be illegal for them to do that but you'd have to take it to court to legally challenge it and it'd be hard to prove that's why you were passed over. There's no "list" you're on though, you choose whether to tell them or not.
