Menopause policies
Support your people: implementing a menopause policy shows you are committed to doing what’s right for your employees.
Putting a menopause policy in place demonstrates your commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion.
Why have a
menopause policy?
Menopause is likely to impact a substantial number of your people in your workforce, both directly and indirectly. While menopause friendly policies are not mandatory, a recent Senate inquiry into the issues related to menopause and perimenopause recommended workplaces implement a policy in consultation with their employees.
Putting a policy and/or guidance document in place demonstrates your commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion and is best-practice.
Your document can outline principles for creating menopause friendly adjustments and support managers to do what’s right for their team members.
For those experiencing symptoms, having a guidance document or policy will help them feel confident in asking for what they need if symptoms are affecting them at work.
Every workplace is different. Let us help you design the right document for your organisation.
