Did you know that women over forty make up a quarter of the Canadian workforce? Failing to accommodate those experiencing menopause has the potential to drive women out of the working world, resulting in severe consequences for the socio-economic fabric of our society.

Dr. Jenny Godley is a Professor of Sociology and Adjunct Professor in Community Health Sciences at the University of Calgary. This special episode of The Conversation Piece features content from her presentation at The Walrus Talks Menopause, supported by Shoppers Foundation for Women’s Health.

Godley spoke at The Walrus Talks Menopause in Toronto on October 17, 2024.
