130 working days to World Menopause
Day - Is your workplace ready?

Peppy x Henpicked: Menopause in the Workplace

LOGO - COLOUR VECTOR (1) (1)

Webinar

The countdown is on - just 130 working days to go! So, the big question is: Is your organisation prepared to step up?

Menopause is a workplace issue, and the numbers speak for themselves: 14 million working days are lost each year in the UK due to menopause symptoms. But the good news is that with the right approach, you can create a workplace where people feel supported, understood, and able to thrive.

Join Peppy and Henpicked for an actionable session designed for HR and benefits professionals, featuring expert insights from Kathy Abernethy – Founding Clinician & Menopause Specialist, and Deborah Garlick – Founder of Henpicked.

We’ll cover:

  1. Rethinking menopause support – Research shows perimenopause symptoms can start as early as late 30s, yet many don’t seek help until their 50s. How can your organisation step in with timely, personalised support?
  2. Menopause isn’t just a ‘women’s issue’ – Let’s be honest: if managers don’t understand menopause, they can’t support their teams. We’ll talk about how to get male employees and managers engaged and equipped to do this right.
  3. New legal guidance – What’s changing, what’s required, and what does it actually mean for employers?

Get ahead, get prepared, and be the employer that gets it right.
