Ever had to call out sick to work because it was the start of your menstrual cycle, you’re having symptoms associated with menopause, you are going through an IVF cycle? That makes two of us, well actually a lot of us. And while many employers believe they are supportive of needs unique to women, many aren’t there yet. For example, 76% of HR benefits managers say they discuss menopause-related issues with employees, but a mere 3% of the employees agree. Women across a variety of industries are feeling more stressed, finding it harder to have a work-life balance and overall less satisfied with their employer. Women are not being heard or seen in the workplace when it comes to their overall well-being. But thanks to trailblazing startups, the spike of women entering leadership positions, and a general awakening of gender differences at work, we are seeing progress. Hear from those at the front of the charge.
