Bank of Ireland has announced that it has introduced a menopause support policy offering a range of new provisions, including paid leave to colleagues who are going through the menopause.
Menopause leave will be available to colleagues experiencing menopause-related sickness, with up to 10 days of paid leave available.
According to research published last week by the Department of Health, three quarters of women over the age of 35 have either entered peri menopause, are in menopause or have completed menopause.
