Corporate Menopause Sessions
Supporting Women, Empowering Workplaces
Menopause is a natural stage of life that impacts all women, yet it remains one of the least understood and supported topics in the workplace. At Empowered Health, I provide tailored corporate menopause sessions designed to foster awareness, reduce stigma, and empower women to thrive during this transitional phase—both professionally and personally.
Why Menopause Awareness Matters in the Workplace
In Ireland there are over 350,000 women in the workplace going through this transition and the latest research has indicated that menopause is having a big impact on their everyday lives.
7% of menopausal women have given up work due to their symptoms
34% have considered giving up work due to their symptoms
37% have taken time off work due to menopause
18% have taken 3 or more days off work because of menopause
86% of women say that menopause can have a big impact on their everyday lives
28% of women in menopause say they would be happy to talk about it to their manager at work
Symptoms
Percentage of Women Affected
| Symptom | Percentage of Women Affected |
| Brain fog | 77% |
| Anxiety | 65% |
| Loss of confidence | 60% |
| Insomnia | 47% |
| Aches and pains | 46% |
These symptoms can profoundly impact performance, well-being, and morale. Women often face these challenges in silence. When workplaces fail to recognize and address these issues, they risk losing valuable talent, seeing reduced productivity, and fostering a culture where women feel unsupported.
By addressing menopause in the workplace, businesses can:
- Promote employee health and well-being.
- Increase retention of experienced and skilled women.
- Enhance Staff morale by creating an inclusive, supportive environment.
- Reduce absenteeism linked to unmanaged symptoms.
- Position themselves as leaders in workplace wellness and inclusivity.
