Manage episode 440158495 series 3292622
Welcome to the Beyond the Pay Gap Figure Podcast. In this episode, our guest is Susan Grayson, an expert in creating inclusive workplaces, especially for women experiencing menopause. Susan discusses the challenges women face in the workplace due to menopause and shares insights into how organisations can become more inclusive.
Susan discusses how menopause is often overlooked as a factor affecting women’s career progression. Women experiencing severe symptoms may struggle with attendance, performance, and confidence, leading to potential career setbacks. Addressing these issues through supportive policies is crucial for retaining talented women.
By addressing issues related to menopause, companies can retain experienced professionals and reduce turnover, especially in male-dominated sectors.
Tune in next week to hear your host Michelle Gyimah discuss common misconceptions about pay gaps and the metrics organisations often chase without achieving real impact.
Quote Highlight: "Employers need to understand that creating an inclusive environment goes beyond policy – it’s about understanding and support."
