Menopause at Work
In partnership with The University of Edinburgh Business School, we've designed a skills development workshop for line managers focused on menopause in the workplace
Women over 50 are now the fastest-growing segment of the workforce. However, 10% of menopausal women with challenging symptoms end up leaving their jobs, and 6 in 10 report that their symptoms negatively impact their working life.
Our 3-hour, interactive Menopause at Work: Tools and Techniques for Managers workshop for line managers equips them with the skills to respond to menopause in the workplace. It provides tools and techniques to engage in menopause-related conversations, and lead effectively in an intergenerational team.
Workshop outcomes include:
- A deeper understanding of menopause, its symptoms, and how to recognise them
- Greater awareness of the current legal position regarding menopause at work
- Skills to initiate or respond positively to menopause-related conversations
- Guidance on fostering open communication without automatically linking it to performance
- Knowledge of reasonable adjustments to support colleagues experiencing menopausal symptoms
This 3-hour workshop is for up to 16 participants and costs £839.
We need a cultural shift that values and normalises open conversations about issues like menstruation, menopause, fertility, and reproductive health, recognising that women's health has been under-supported in the past and committing to change that.
