Don't let menopause cost you your best talent!
When 1 in 4 women quit at the peak of their careers due to menopause symptoms, and 35% take absence without disclosing the real reason to their managers, it's time to transform your workplace culture.
Menopause symptoms can have a significant impact on women at work.
Research by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development found that two thirds (67%) of working women between the ages of 40 and 60 with experience of menopausal symptoms said they have had a mostly negative impact on them at work.
Of those who were negatively affected at work:
-
79% said they were less able to concentrate
-
68% said they experienced more stress
-
nearly half (49%) said they felt less patient with clients and colleagues, and
-
46% felt less physically able to carry out work tasks.
Women's Wellbeing in the UK Workplace includes a workplace culture that addresses women's unique health needs, offers flexible work arrangements, ensures fair treatment and provides supportive policies and resources. One of the key aspects is creating awareness and open dialogue on menopause.
While there isn't specific menopause legislation in the UK, employers are legally obligated to support employees experiencing menopause symptoms, particularly if they impact their ability to work. This often involves making reasonable adjustments under the Equality Act 2010, and ensuring a safe working environment under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.
Your organization could be losing productivity, knowledge, and irreplaceable experience.
The Hidden Cost to Your Business: Right now, talented employees are suffering in silence. They're taking sick days, avoiding career opportunities, and some are walking away entirely—not because they can't do the job, but due to stress and anxiety because they don't feel supported through a natural life transition.
The Solution: Workplace Menstruation and Menopause Training.
Our tailored awareness sessions equip employers and colleagues with the understanding and practical tools needed to create genuinely supportive environments.
Through open communication and simple workplace adjustments, you'll not only retain talent and reduce absenteeism—you'll increase productivity and build a culture where everyone can thrive.

Emma stares at her computer screen, the words blurring together. She's read the email three times but can't retain the information - the brain fog is overwhelming. Yesterday, she forgot an important client call entirely. Recently, she couldn't remember her colleagues name mid conversation. Her anxiety is worsening She's worried her manager will notice her declining performance and assume she's no longer capable of her senior role.
Case Study: Rachel's Breaking Point - 11:20 AM, Bathroom Stall
Rachel locks the door and finally allows herself to cry. The irregular periods mean she's caught off-guard again, despite carrying supplies everywhere. The cramping is intense, her mood has been volatile all week, and she snapped at a colleague earlier for no real reason. She can't take another sick day—she's already used too many this year for symptoms she can't explain to her male manager.
