Nearly 2 million women enter menopause each year in the U.S., and 8-10 million experience menopausal symptoms annually.1 Symptoms can affect employees' day-to-day work experiences and may also contribute to leave, absence, accommodation, and workplace support needs.

Understanding how menopause can affect employee well-being can help organizations foster a more supportive, inclusive workplace, connect employees with meaningful resources, and better navigate leave and absence-related conversations.

Join us as our panel explores:

  • Practical ways employers can foster menopause awareness and reduce stigma

  • Benefits, resources, and workplace practices that can help employees through this important life stage

  • Considerations for supporting employees who may need workplace accommodations, flexibility, or leave-related support
