Episode 140 - World Menopause Day: Policies & Supports

36 minutes

In Ireland, around 570,000 women are currently in the menopausal or perimenopausal stage, with approximately 350,000 of these women still in paid employment. So what can we do to support these women, and does the level effort being put in by Irish companies match the scale of support needed?

Thankfully, some companies are doing some great work on this. And we’re delighted to be joined by Barry Holmes, Director of Human Resources at the Royal College of Surgeons to tell us about their award-winning menopause policy.
