SUPPORTING & CHAMPIONING WOMENS HEALTH IN THE WORKPLACE

Being a woman at work can be difficult. We have progressed so much in our quest for equal pay and opportunities, to the point where we can prioritise working hard and career progression to the detriment of our health. And this doesn't just impact us, but also our employers.

Around 7 out of 10 women are struggling with their periods at work.

Endometriosis, Adenomyosis, Fibroids, PCOS, PMDD, heavy & painful periods
Menopause
Infertility and IVF

In 2021, we carried out a survey of our clients and found out that not supporting women's health needs at work is causing:

Unnecessary time off work
Unreported absences
Loss of productivity
Good staff leaving jobs they love

What impact is that having on your business?

How we can help

CREATING A MORE PRODUCTIVE WORKFORCE

Women’s health is often hidden away because we feel shame about our periods and fertility. Almost every woman has experienced trying to artfully hide a period product on their way to the toilet at the office.  

We do not believe in that shame. We believe that women’s health is so complex and stressful that we have no choice but to be open about it. Without realising it, you could be letting women’s health issues stand in the way of acheiving your or your team's fullest potential.
