A University of Galway study, 'Menopause in the workplace', surveyed over 1,600 workers across seven public sectors to explore male attitudes towards colleagues experiencing menopause.
The study revealed that male colleagues and managers are not equipped to support women in menopause, with
almost 80% of CEOs in Ireland being male.
1 in 10 women experience severe menopause symptoms and have to leave work, emphasizing the need for a solution.
