In this week’s episode, co-host Mark Edgar is joined by Emma Thomas from Managing the Menopause. Mark asks Emma to do a bit of an explainer on the menopause and they tackle a number of the misconceptions that women who experience menopausal symptoms have to deal with in the workplace.
Emma shares advice for leaders (particularly men) and HR teams on how they can better support women’s health in the workplace and shares a range of great resources you can find here:
