We’re highlighting here another video from Ukie’s Need To Know series of videos. Here Ukie’s Leo Harvey chats with Silv Greenfield of Henpicked about the benefits of employers prioritising support for menstruation and menopause in the workplace.
Together they explore the growing importance of these issues, especially in light of potential legal risks in the UK, where these health matters, while not explicitly covered under the Equality Act, can fall under disability law and impact employee retention.
Their discussion highlights the business case for such proactive support, demonstrating how beginning discussions internally, upskilling managers to better support affected employees and setting in place supportive policies all reflect a company’s broader social responsibility and commitment to genuine inclusion, whilst noting hidden costs of inaction such as reduced productivity and presenteeism.
