Managing The Transition to Menopause in the Workplace

Back to the workplace for Episode 24! Menopause is a natural transition in life and the reality is that if you menstruate, it can be assumed that you will go through this transition in your lifetime. Given the evolution of the workforce and push to keep people working longer, a high percentage of employees are going to be working while experiencing the transition into the menopause and the symptoms associated with it. For this episode, I will be looking at how Ergonomics and Human Factors can be used to help employees transitioning to the menopause manage their symptoms in the workplace, reducing their risk of discomfort, injury and stress and improving their productivity and wellbeing. I will also be advising how employers can help facilitate their employees, helping them retain the talent and experience that these employees offer.The blog for this episode can be found on:https://boyneergonomics.ie/how-can-ergonomics-human-factors-help-manage-the-menopause-transition-at-work/As always, I can be found online and on social media:[email protected]: boyne_ergonomicsTwitter: niamh_pentonyLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/niamhpentony
