Menopause in the Workplace
Thanks to advancing research, we know a lot more about menopause. It can be a difficult time for employees, sometimes lasting many years - and should never be ignored or swept under the carpet.

Our Menopause Services
As a business, being compassionate shouldn’t need to cause issues with team performance, results, retention, or your reputation. Employers who provide the right support can reduce discrimination risks, and foster an inclusive, productive environment.
Our employment lawyers help businesses of all sizes implement clear policies and training to back employees going through menopause.
We can support with:
- Drafting menopause policies and procedures
- Training for line managers and HR teams
- Contractual changes and reasonable adjustments
- Advice on discrimination claims and risks
- Performance, absence, and grievance management
- Settlement agreements and restrictive covenants.
You’ll benefit from our deep multi-sectoral experience across employment law, ensuring your business stays compliant while protecting both employees and your organisation.
