Menopause will be a reality for more than 1.1 billion women globally this year, yet in many workplaces, it remains an overlooked and unspoken issue. Employees experiencing menopause symptoms—such as fatigue, hot flashes, brain fog, and anxiety—often struggle in silence, fearing stigma or career consequences if they speak up.
For benefits professionals, this presents a major opportunity to create real change by offering menopause-inclusive benefits that enhance retention, improve productivity, and ensure that companies truly support employees at every stage of life.
