Menopause Awareness Training & Support - Optimise Workplace Wellbeing

Our Menopause Awareness training focuses on educating employees on what menopause is, how to identify symptoms in themselves and others and how it can impact working life. We can help organisations to create an open culture and implement ‘Menopause Friendly’ adjustments to support employees.

How can this training and support help your organisation?

Supportive ‘human’ conversations make a huge difference; anyone struggling with symptoms cannot place them aside whilst they continue to work, so having a supportive conversation can make that easier
Equipping line managers to have conversations with team members allows people experiencing menopause to feel supported in the workplace.
Promoting a healthy environment and culture is better for everyone; an open, honest environment means we can all flourish at work.
Enabling women to be their best at work; 1 in 4 report severe symptoms
Awareness: wide-ranging physical and psychological symptoms can feel seriously inhibiting to anyone, especially if they have a senior role which presents multiple demands on concentration and a requirement to manage multiple priorities.

Why is and Understanding of the Menopause in the Workplace so Important?

The female employment rate of 71.4%; the highest since 1971
Women outnumber men in 40-49 and 50-59 age groups.
Almost one in four (24%) female workers also juggle caring responsibilities
There is a need for older people to stay in the workforce longer. People will need to ensure they have adequate funds to support their longer lives. There is also a policy drive to increase employment among older people, to help support the increased costs of providing health and social care services and State Pension provision that an ageing population brings.
