LATEST PODCAST: Work and Menopause Matters Can Mix Workplace support for menopause continues to evolve, but there is still a gap between what organisations believe is adequate and what employees actually need. The latest episode of the Menopause Matters, Let's Talk Podcast features Deborah Garlick, founder and CEO of Henpicked: Menopause in the Workplace and the driving force behind the Menopause Friendly and Menstruation Friendly Accreditations. Drawing on more than a decade of experience, Deborah shares practical advice on creating supportive, inclusive workplaces, highlighting the importance of listening to employees, recognising that every menopause journey is different, and moving away from one-size-fits-all solutions.
The episode explores how employers and managers can build confidence in supporting colleagues, encourage more open and multigenerational conversations, and foster lasting cultural change through strong leadership. Also discussed is the introduction of Menopause Action Plans, the role they play in reducing the gender pay gap, and the steps organisations can take to create workplaces where people experiencing menopause can truly thrive. » Listen here
