Why Menopause Awareness training matters in Wales
Many experienced staff go through perimenopause and menopause while working, and some reduce their hours or leave because of symptoms that could have been supported. With large public-sector, health and education workforces, employers in Wales have a lot to gain from supportive policies and confident managers.
- Helps retain experienced staff
- Reduces the risk of discrimination claims
- Supports wellbeing and attendance
