Many employers have made progress with supporting those with menopause symptoms at work. However, this isn’t the case across the board and more can certainly be done to create a supportive culture. And organisations should do this if they want to attract and retain a diverse employee base. CIPD research shows that a lack of support can have a negative impact on career progression and can even cause some women to leave the workplace entirely.  

 

So, what more should organisations be doing to create a menopause supportive workplace and empower employees to manage their symptoms and thrive in work? Listen to our webinar and hear advice and tips from our panel of experts:  

  • Helen Tomlinson, the UK Government’s Menopause Employment Champion and Head of Talent (UK and Ireland), The Adecco Group 
  • Angie Voidloss, Diversity and Inclusion Manager, Associated British Foods 
  • Rachel Suff, Senior Policy Adviser – Employee Relations, CIPD 

Chaired by Claire McCartney, Senior Policy Adviser – Resourcing and Inclusion, CIPD.
