The ALLIANCE and Scottish Government are sharing key resources on menopause in the workplace

The symptoms of menopause can have a real and detrimental impact on women, and those who experience menopause, in the workplace. It is important that they are offered workplace support – as well as line managers and employers so that they are able to provide it.

In the run up to World Menopause Day on 18th October, the ALLIANCE and Scottish Government are pleased to share some key resources focused on menopause and the workplace. These resources follow on from an ALLIANCE webinar on the topic held in August 2022, and pick up on information shared by speakers. It is hoped that these resources can highlight the experiences of menopausal transition in the workplace, as well as providing clear steps for employers to follow to support their employees.

Menopause is a key priority within the Scottish Government’s Women’s Health Plan (2021-2024), which is delivering on specific actions around improving menopause support and access to services and information. The ALLIANCE is supporting the Women’s Health Plan through a dedicated workstream that engages with lived experience.
