Every woman will experience menopause and approximately 1 in 4 will experience debilitating symptoms.
There are around 4.4 million women aged 50 and over in employment in the UK and it is the fastest growing demographic.
Studies have shown that menopause symptoms can have a significant impact on attendance and performance in the workplace.
The 2016 Wellbeing of Women survey revealed that 25% of women going through the menopause had considered leaving work because of their experiences.
Two-thirds of women going through the menopause say they have no support in place at work.
Quite simply menopause awareness and support in the workplace is a win-win situation for both employers and employees. Menopause education, information and support can be game-changers for staff satisfaction and retention and creating a supportive and informed menopause culture within your organisation.
