An increasing number of companies in the UK are taking menopause-related symptoms into account in the workplace, with measures such as flexible work, manager training, consultation with experts and office design.

The UK is constantly striving to break the taboo surrounding menopause in the workplace, as demonstrated by the publication on 22 February of a new guide on the topic by the EHRC, which is a non-departmental public body. Last year, a standard on menopause and menstruation in the workplace was established by the British Standards Institute (BSI), a resource centre that sets quality standards.
