Fertility Week | Why HR should consider reproductive health

Reproductive health, or in laymen’s terms an employee’s ability to have children, at first may not seem to be overtly relevant to the HR agenda, however, just as with financial health and physical welfare, reproductive health has massive ramifications on the wellbeing of employees.

With this week marking the annual National Fertility Week, the need for companies to support their employees is greater than ever before.

And with the likelihood of remote working now remaining for a while longer, many organisations are taking this time to review existing benefit schemes to ensure they are offering effective solutions that provide maximum value for their staff members.

But why is reproductive health so important? Well, according to Tony Chen, CEO and Founder of Fertifa, most workplaces aren’t talking about this issue, despite its importance to workers.
