Interesting question. I'd like to see more discussion and support around menopausal systems rarely discussed: Brain fog and insomnia being the two highest ones that affect the work I do for the company. Solution? The only one I can think of is cross training and hiring more resources so I don't have to push through a rough day of no sleep and high brain fog, only because nobody else does what I do. TLDR: don't run internal departments so damn lean.
Also, maybe create safe spaces where women can share knowledge about their experiences and share what benefits the company *does* have.
Curious what others think
That's fair. It might be nice to have a dedicated chat space where, as a colleagues, I could learn about what works for you. Something kind of official/non official.
Interesting question. I would never share my menopausal status or expect anything special, but perhaps that’s just me.
Men also experience aging/hormonal and physical changes and I don’t see anything special done for them either.
I’m more concerned about ageism and how that impacts my career opportunities.
No. I have no problem obtaining HRT from my physician and don’t view management of symptoms as a responsibility of my employer.
There’s no need to “discuss” my menopause at work….. I mean, we don’t offer “ED support/discussion” to men.
Not all personal issues should be brought into the work environment for discussion.
