The menopause can bring significant changes, and for many women, this can impact their experience at work. Unfortunately, discrimination and a lack of understanding around menopause in the workplace are common issues.
Under UK law, you are entitled to fair treatment and reasonable adjustments during this phase of life. Our employment lawyers specialise in cases involving menopause discrimination, ensuring your rights are protected. We’re here to help you navigate the legal process. Our goal is to ensure you receive the fair treatment you deserve if you’re going through menopause in the workplace.
Menopause at Work
Menopause at work is often misunderstood, leading to unfair treatment, such as being denied adjustments, being overlooked for promotions or facing harassment. The Equality Act 2010 protects employees from discrimination, and this includes any unfair treatment related to menopause symptoms.
Employers can take steps to help by:
- Providing access to occupational health services
- Carrying out menopause-sensitive risk assessments
- Educating and training staff on menopause awareness
- Creating an environment where employees can speak openly about their experiences
- Considering how the demands of a job may make it difficult to manage menopause symptoms.
- Having early and ongoing conversations with staff to understand their needs
Employers are required to make reasonable adjustments to support women going through menopause at work. If you believe your employer has failed to support you or treated you unfairly, our expert employment lawyers are here to guide you. Get in touch with us to help you understand your rights and take the necessary steps to ensure a fair outcome.
