As we near World Menopause Day 2024 on 18th October, we’re hoping you’ll find time to come along to the Active Sefton 2 days of Menopause Staff Support.
The menopause is a workplace issue which means that it’s a UNISON issue and locally, Sefton UNISON continues to campaign for better workplaces and better conditions for women in Sefton experiencing the menopause. Nearly 80% of menopausal women are in the workplace and Sefton UNISON in conjunction with Sefton Council are working to help employers understand the effects of the menopause. While everyone experiences it differently, 59% of women say their symptoms have had a negative impact on their work.
Our trained reps negotiate practical policies with employers to keep you healthy and safe, promote the benefits of a supportive and flexible environment, and help to protect you from discrimination.
