Every year, World Menopause Day is honoured on October 18.
It's an opportunity during World Menopause Month to raise awareness and understanding of the menopause and its symptoms; as well as how it affects women in the workplace.
With so much misunderstanding around its impact, and ongoing frustation with the lack of support provided by many employers, HR Grapevine Podcast host Serena Haththotuwa and Wendy Sherry, CEO for the Global Health Benefits business within International Health, Cigna Healthcare, reflect on how HR professionals can create impactful action.
As well as discussing why better provisions for women experiencing the menopause is the right thing to do, Sherry also sheds light on why focusing on women’s health and vitality good for a company’s bottom line, and how showcasing this can help HR leaders generate buy-in and ongoing support beyond this day and month.
