Even if you don't have a policy covering the menopause this is a good place to start for managers and employees of all ages and at all levels.

Clear and concise training that certainly helped me understand this subject much more.

Really informative training. Helps me to better understand what my fellow workers experiencing the menopause are going through. I can also extend this understanding to my home life.
interesting course but I dont really believe in doing this for work
It is important that everyone is aware of how the menopause and perimenopause can affect people, and ways in which we can be supportive as colleagues, friends and family. As such, the course is a welcome addition to the iHasco repertoire. However, like so many of iHasco's courses, in (quite understandably) preparing content for as wide an audience as possible, we are forced to sit through half an hour of videos for material that could just as effectively be communicated to some in about two minutes of concentrated reading. The advice to use herbal remedies is material that should be removed. Herbs have pharmaceutical and psychoactive chemicals in them can interfere with other medication and even be harmful. (Those plants evolved to produce the chemicals in self-defence!) Though systemic bias in testing medication means people who menstruate might rightly be suspicious of 'Western' medicine, the solution is to trial medication properly rather than pushing potentially dangerous 'alternatives'.
The training course covered the expected points but also went into a lot more detail on the why as well as the how-to-handle (in terms of both specific and general approaches). A very useful course.
Having been through perimenopause and still passing through menopause, this is the sort of information I wish had existed before I started that journey. Knowing that my colleagues were aware and supportive would have meant I could have been more open about it, instead of powering through to my own detriment.
