New menopause legislation has been introduced by the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) and will protect vulnerable people in the workplace.
When it comes to UK menopause law, there is still a long way to go before women dealing with menopause symptoms can feel truly at ease in the workplace. However, February 22 marks a step forward as it has been announced that employers will now be at risk of being sued for discriminating against people going through menopause. It was announced by the EHRC that employers will be expected to make 'reasonable adjustments' or be at risk of disability discrimination.
