Menopause allyship at work: Creating supportive and inclusive workplace cultures webinar
16 October 2026, 1pm - 2pm
Live virtual
Menopause affects millions of people at work, yet many still face barriers to understanding, support and inclusion.
This webinar explores your role in creating menopause-friendly workplaces – whether that’s as an individual, a manager, or at an organisational level.
When workplaces understand menopause, everyone benefits. Better support helps women stay, thrive, and progress in their careers.
Take just one hour out of your day and you'll get a clear understanding of why this matters, what support and allyship looks like in practice, and how you can gain the knowledge and confidence to offer effective support in your organisation.
It's not just theory, though. We'll explore your legal responsibilities and the practical steps you can take to create a more supportive workplace. You'll hear examples from people and places already getting it right, and leave with tools and techniques you can put into action straight away.
Remember: menopause isn't just a personal issue - it's a workplace issue too. By understanding the challenges and taking action, we can create workplaces where everyone can thrive.

This webinar is relevant for employees, line managers, HR professionals, EDI practitioners and organisational leaders committed to creating more inclusive workplaces.
