Approx. 600,000 women in Ireland are affected by menopause and other women’s health related issues at any one time.  These issues can undermine women’s confidence, and recent surveys show, that up to 8% of women affected, exit the workforce as a result of womens health related issues.  Research shows that companies that are taking affirmative action by having supports in place, help greatly with recruitment & retention as employees feel supported in their workplace.  Katie give us some great insights into what companies should do, how to promote awareness and create an environment where women can feel safe to have open conversations about these issues, and what policies progressive companies should put in place in order to see the benefits of supporting their female employees.
