Why talk about menopause?
The menopause affects over 80% of women, typically starting once they’re over the age of 45. For most women, this does not just mean a few hot sweats, back fat and a bit of extra facial hair. All noteworthy in their own right! It also causes anxiety, depression, insomnia and poor concentration. Leading to challenges at work – not only for the women in question. The menopause can also have a significant impact on their employer and their work colleagues
Around 1.7 million women have reported finding work difficult once they entered the menopause, with 350,000 giving up work altogether
Menopausal symptoms are costing the UK economy a staggering 14 million lost working days per year
We have come a long way in my lifetime; talking about previously taboo subjects, creating openness between people and creating cultures of inclusion
The one subject yet to be brought fully into the light being this one
As a species we need to start understanding the menopause, its impact on the women it affects and the ripple effect that encompasses society as a whole
Companies who are embracing this topic, and looking to offer support, understanding and more flexibility to female sufferers are finding a new level of productivity and engagement with some of their most able, capable talent; the women who bring years of experience to the job in question
As a menopausal woman myself I understand this first-hand
I also know the impact subtle – and drastic – lifestyle changes have on the symptoms
If you’re interested in this subject, because of how it’s affecting your workforce, or how it’s changing your life, let’s talk…
