Menopause can affect every part of working life. Yet too many people feel unable to ask for support or workplace adjustments. The right policies and adjustments are good for workers and good for employers too. πŸ’œ

Why is the menopause a workplace issue?49% of women have considered leaving their jobs due to menopause symptoms. Source: Royal London, 2024Quote: My experience with dealing with menopause issues was awful. At the time I thought I was having a nervous breakdown. I was struggling to concentrate and work was all getting too much.4. What can I do? 1. Speak to your colleagues about what would make your workplace more supportive and feed your ideas back to your UNISON rep. 2. Ask your regional education team about our popular member learning courses and activist workshops. 3. Get involved in a range of other UNISON campaigns on issues that particularly affect women, including sexual harassment and the gender pay gap.

Theatre assistants in Leeds are returning to the picket line next week.

They perform clinical tasks and should be paid for them, but managers are refusing to return to negotiations.

It'll be a continuous, indefinite strike unless trust bosses get back round the table.
