Women’s Health in the Workplace

Improve attendance, increase productivity and boost your retention amongst your female team members.  Women’s health symptoms ARE impacting on your business and despite the increase in awareness, there’s still a lot more we need to talk about.

Roughly 70% of women in the UK are either menopausal or are struggling with the symptoms of chronic health conditions like endometriosis, adenomyosis, fibroids or PSOC.  Add into that mix the impact that resulting issues such as fertility concerns, stress and anxiety have and it’s no wonder that women can struggle to give their best at work.  In a 2021 survey, we found out that women who are facing these health challenges were more likely to take avoidable sick days and were less likely to reveal the full truth about why they were ringing in sick.

In this training course, you will be takes through the complexities of women’s health;  the symptoms, their impact, why people struggle to talk about it and, most importantly, what we can do to raise the profile of women’s health in our workplaces and ensure that women don’t feel as if they need to miss work or hide away.
