Menopausal Symptom Workplace Accommodation

Meaning

Menopausal Symptom Workplace Accommodation refers to the implementation of supportive, flexible, and often personalized adjustments to the work environment and employment conditions to mitigate the impact of perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms on an employee’s functional capacity and productivity. These symptoms, which are a direct result of fluctuating and declining ovarian hormone levels, can include debilitating vasomotor instability, cognitive impairment, and severe sleep disruption. The goal is to retain experienced talent by creating a physiologically supportive professional setting that respects this natural endocrine transition.
