Menopause: The impact on women returners and tech employers

Women in their 40s-50s are the fastest-growing cohort in UK workplaces, but nearly 50% of women say their menopause symptoms have had a negative impact on their work. Furthermore, 1 in 3 women will consider reducing their hours or leaving work altogether because of perimenopausal & menopausal symptoms
