Course description

Many employers still do not know where to start in terms of how best to support those coping with menopausal symptoms.


Are you embarrassed, or do you feel uncomfortable discussing a topic you know little about? Are you afraid of saying the wrong thing and doing more harm than good?


Menopause has long been viewed as a taboo topic, rarely broached, and never discussed in the workplace, so these reactions are understandable, but they are also preventing you from providing your employees with the help and support they need. It’s time to discuss the menopause in a frank and open manner.


This virtual classroom seminar with leading trainer Helen Cleare will show you how to start the conversation and will provide you with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to support your workforce.
