World Menopause Day is held each year on 18th October to raise awareness, break the stigma and highlight the support available for improving health and wellbeing for those experiencing menopause.
Menopause is not just a gender or age issue; it is an organisational issue which can impact colleagues both directly and indirectly. Awareness around this topic is key to reducing the stigma attached to menopause and encouraging people to talk more openly about it.
At Cemex UK, we have held seminars for those interested in finding out more about Menopause – these were very popular and we are hoping to run some further sessions in the future.
Our Lifestyle Support Platform offers a series of seminars free to access for all Cemex employees. You can join ‘Menopause in the Workplace’ on Thursday 2nd November at 12pm. This webinar is in line with World Menopause Awareness Day, providing an overview to help raise awareness of the Menopause, and information on how Care first can support with concerns relating to the menopause.
