Menopause position statement

Coventry City Council aims to create an open and supportive culture that normalises discussion about menopause at work. The Council has created a Workforce Menopause Pledge that commits to the following:

  • Offering menopause training to all managers and employees
  • Holding forums for open, positive, and respectful conversation about menopause support in the workplace, including menopause cafés and lunch & learn events
  • Offering support via Occupational Health Safety and Wellbeing Service, which includes the menopause clinic
  • Keeping menopause on the agenda all year round with communication on support options, resources, and menopause education for all
  • Recognising the impact menopause can have on transgender and non-binary colleagues and providing support through an intersectional lens

The Council has signed the Wellbeing of Women menopause pledge.
