Menopause in the Workplace
Helping organisations create a workplace where menopause is understood, conversations are easier and women feel supported to navigate this stage of life and thrive at work.
What does this look like?
From menopause awareness workshops and practical workplace guidance to relaxed, open conversations, I work with organisations to create a more informed and supportive approach to menopause.
Sessions can be tailored to your organisation and may include education for employees and managers, practical strategies for supporting women at work and creating a culture where menopause can be talked about openly and without embarrassment.
Whether you're looking to raise awareness, support employees or help managers feel more confident talking about menopause, I offer practical, people-focused support including:
🌸 Menopause workshops
Helping employees understand menopause and the changes they may be experiencing.
💬 Menopause drop-ins & support groups
Creating a safe, informal space where employees can ask questions, share experiences and talk openly.
👩💼 Line-manager sessions
Helping managers understand menopause and feel more comfortable having supportive conversations.
🤝 Employee wellbeing support
Exploring practical ways to support sleep, nutrition, movement, stress and overall wellbeing.
🧠 Menopause awareness
Helping colleagues understand what menopause can look like and how they can support someone.
🌱 Creating a supportive culture
Helping make conversations about menopause easier, more open and less stigmatised.
How menopause friendly is your workplace?
Perhaps you're already doing some great things to support your employees - or maybe you're not sure where to start.
From spring 2027, employers with 250+ employees will be required to publish an Equality Action Plan, including action to support employees experiencing menopause.
But creating a menopause-supportive workplace isn't just about meeting new requirements. It can help organisations retain talented people, support wellbeing and reduce the impact of menopause on attendance and productivity.
Whatever the size of your organisation, I can help you build a workplace where menopause is understood, conversations are easier and employees feel supported, valued and able to thrive at every stage of their working lives.
Here are some helpful questions to get you thinking:
- What are we, as an organisation, currently doing around menopause support?
- Is there a menopause policy or wellbeing policy already in place?
- Do our employees understand what menopause is and how it can affect them at work?
- Do our managers feel confident having conversations about menopause?
- Do employees know where to go for information and support?
- Is menopause something people feel comfortable talking about openly?
- Do we consider menopause when looking at workplace wellbeing and individual needs?
- Are there practical changes we could make to help employees feel more comfortable and supported?
- Do colleagues understand how they can support someone experiencing menopause?
- Do our policies and workplace culture reflect the support we want to provide?
