About Our Menopause at Work Training at Elston HR

Despite affecting a significant chunk of the UK’s active working population, menopause is very rarely addressed properly in organisations or spoken about enough.

Demographically, about 4.5 million working women in the UK are aged 50 and over, with many at the peak of their careers, according to the UK government. And this number is growing faster than ever, meaning that 8 in 10 women will go through menopause while working.

Given these statistics, it’s surprising that menopause-related issues are rarely discussed by reporting managers, or that people experiencing menopause aren’t often asked if they need support or adjustments to be made. A 2023 CIPD report on Menopause in the Workplace: Employee Experiences highlights how 84% of unsupported women experienced a negative effect at work, and a further 19% of women said that menopausal symptoms have had a negative effect on their career progression.

If you’re ready to break the silence around menopause in your workplace, you’ll benefit from Elston HR’s menopause at work training programme. Our menopause in the workplace training aims to make work environments more inclusive with our industry-ready training solutions.

Top Benefits of Our Menopause in the Workplace Training

Increased Productivity

Show more
Companies that continually invest in their employees often do better than companies that don’t. Your most experienced employees are your biggest asset, and investing in them shows that you care.
‍
If menopause is affecting your employees productivity and morale, whether their struggle is obvious or not, proactive support can go a long way. Support makes your employees feel cared for and leads to a rise in their efficiency.

Lower Absence Levels

Show more
According to the Office of National Statistics, absence due to sickness was the most common in older workers, especially women in large organisations. 

Although the link between absenteeism and menopause has not been clearly established through surveys, 3 out of 4 women experience symptoms that could affect their ability to attend work, with 1 in 4 experiencing severe symptoms.

Menopause training in the workplace trains managers to provide the right support and resources for menopausal women at work experiencing symptoms.

Reduced Recruitment Costs

Show more
A 2023 research by SimplyHealth shows nearly 1 in 4 women consider leaving work due to menopausal symptoms. However, replacing the employee and bringing a new member up to speed can be expensive and time-consuming.

Through menopause training for managers, your team can learn how to help menopausal employees work through the transition with flexible work arrangements and low-cost adjustments to retain them.

Reduced Legal Risks

Show more
Your organisation runs the risk of lawsuits if your employers don't take their employees' menopausal difficulties into account. According to the British Chamber of Commerce, the average cost of defending a tribunal is £8,500.

You can avoid tribunal cases by understanding the various legal frameworks and employment laws around menopause through our menopause training at work. Learn what efforts you and your organisation can make.
