“I currently work in HR, and dealt with a sickness absence recently, where the lady might lose her job. She came back to work today and was very emotional. She is experiencing menopause and may end up losing her job because there is not the appropriate support for her.
Women who have worked all their lives to get to good positions in their career are then not supported correctly when this phase of life happens. There is a lack of support and understanding at work. This type of support is great at bringing awareness into the workplace.”
