Menopause Support & Guidance: Workplace Initiatives (#07)
HR Risk Forums: Menopause Support & Guidance - Workplace Initiatives
Based on your feedback and follow-up we’ve designed a series of free half-hour webinars to help facilitate open conversations around menopause in the workplace.
Time: 11:00 - 11:30 | FREE
When: Thursday 21st March 2024
Menopause Policy & Guidance - 75% of employers do not have a menopause policy in place
Hearing about organisations who are leading the way, we’ll look at what needs to happen before you write a menopause policy or guidance document as well as how to tackle the issue in a male-dominated industry.
We’ll arm you with the information and knowledge you need to make your workplace menopause-friendly. We’ll also brainstorm some changes you can make tomorrow.
