October 18th is World Menopause Day—a time to raise awareness about menopause and its impact on the workplace. Menopause is a topic that affects us all, whether directly or indirectly, and it's important to create an inclusive, supportive environment for those experiencing it. Earlier this year, we ran a webinar with Vicki Hodges from Pausefully, where we learned the importance of making workplaces more menopause-friendly.

I often get asked by clients if they need to have a menopause policy or guidance. 📝 A menopause policy formally acknowledges the challenges that menopausal employees may face and signals the organisation's commitment to inclusivity. If written well, it can provide useful information and guidance. However, a policy alone won't create an open, considerate, and supportive culture where people feel comfortable talking about menopause in day-to-day conversations. 🔍 To achieve this, awareness training is essential. It builds understanding of menopause and its impact in the workplace, addressing misconceptions and biases, and offering a space for employees to reflect on how they can support colleagues. Training equips everyone to contribute to a more empathetic and inclusive environment. 🌱 If you're ready to kickstart or give a boost to your focus on menopause, let's connect! 🤝 I’d love to help you create a supportive workplace where every employee feels acknowledged and valued. 🌟 #MenopauseAwareness #InclusiveWorkplace #SupportiveCulture

With World Menopause Month, we have the opportunity to begin important conversations around menopause. Many women remain silent about their menopause symptoms out of fear—fear of losing their jobs, facing rejection, ageism, or the stigma and shame that still surrounds this natural phase of life. But here’s the challenge: if we don’t talk about menopause, employers won’t know that support is needed. In fact, one of the main reasons employers don’t offer menopause-related benefits is simply because employees didn’t ask. It’s time to change that. Open dialogue is one of the most critical steps in creating menopause-friendly environments. When employees feel safe to speak up, organizations are more likely to offer the resources and support needed for their teams to thrive—both in and outside of the workplace. Let’s use this month as a launchpad to encourage these conversations, break down the barriers, and build workplaces where no one has to suffer in silence.

Women often hesitate to share their menopause experiences, leading to missed diagnoses and health navigation challenges. It's time to rewrite that story. 📢     At Torque we're all about extending a lifeline to our employees. We foster a safe space for discussing menopause and highlight the role of holistic wellness in life and work. Talking openly can make a monumental difference. Join us in taking that first step towards understanding and support. It's about sharing experiences and joining the menopause tribe to conquer the world together.     Ready to find out more?
