Menopausal women are the fastest-growing demographic in the UK workforce, yet a 2022 survey by the Fawcett Society found one in ten women leave work due to their menopause symptoms.
This week, Dr Louise is joined by Oonagh Ferson, who researched the experiences of perimenopausal and menopausal women in the workplace as part of her MSc in HR management at Queens University Belfast.
Oonagh shares her research findings and some of the stories of women she interviewed, and with Dr Louise discusses the impact of perimenopause, menopause and other conditions such as PMS and PMDD in the workplace.
Oonagh offers advice on how women can thrive at work, including the three things she believes would make the biggest difference to women in the workplace:
1. A bottom up approach, where employers sit down with women and ask them: what would help you? What can we do?
2. Even though it may be difficult at times, advocate for yourself: be open with your employer to secure the support or adjustments you need
3. Having open discussions, using clear language and avoiding terms like ‘the change’, can help dispel the stigma around menopause
There is a chapter dedicated to menopause and the workplace in Dr Louise’s bestselling book, The Definitive Guide to the Perimenopause and Menopause. Order your copy via this link: https://lnk.to/MenopauseLouiseNewson
