Supporting Menopause in the Workplace
28th November 2019, London
Understanding the connection between workforce diversity and business success is essential to remaining competitive in the modern market. According to the Office for National Statistics, menopausal women are the fastest growing working demographic in the UK, with nearly 8 out of 10 menopausal women now remaining in work. Indeed, 1 in 4 women working with the menopause state that it is a key consideration when making decisions about their future in employment. With an ageing working population, it is time for organisations to prioritise the retention of their menopausal workforce.
