Last year, the Wales TUC published a report The Menopause - a workplace issue based on a major survey of almost 4000 workers.
The survey found that 88 per cent of women workers who had experienced the menopause felt it had an effect on working life, while around 6 in 10 had witness the issue being treated as a joke in the workplace. The survey also showed that only a very small number of workplace had policies in place to support women who experience difficulties during the menopause, and in some cases health and safety issues in the workplace caused women's symptoms to worsen.
The survey showed that many women wanted to see a change in the way the issue is treated at work, and as a result the Wales TUC put together a series of campaign asks of the Welsh and UK governments.
Wales TUC has also developed The menopause: a workplace issue - a toolkit for trade unionists to help reps press employers to make improvements in the workplace. The toolkit covers essential information about the menopause, looks at some of the common workplace issues and considers why the menopause is a key workplace health and safety and equality issue for trade unionists. It offers practical tools for trade union reps including examples of workplace adjustments, ideas for action, surveys and mapping, a gender sensitive health and safety checklist, an example workplace policy and example risk assessment. The toolkit is available in English and Welsh.
