Women’s Health in the Workplace Conference | Wednesday 20th March 2024 | 09:15 - 15:30 | London and Online

Women have complex and varying health concerns that will manifest throughout their working lives including fertility and IVF treatment, pregnancy, and the menopause. Many women will experience miscarriage or baby loss, and 1 in 7 will develop breast cancer. Gynaecological conditions such as endometriosis, and menstrual health can have a major impact on women in the workplace. Women are also more likely to experience stress and anxiety than their male counterparts at work. And there are health impacts linked to violence against women and girls.

At our inaugural Supporting Women’s Health at Work event, you will hear directly from the Women’s Health Ambassador, Dame Lesley Regan DBE, and the Menopause Employment Champion, Helen Tomlison. Gain practical guidance from best practice organisations including PWC, Deloitte, Admiral, JP Morgan Chase & Co, and the Department for Work and Pensions.

Join us, as we ‘wise up’ on issues affecting women’s health in the workplace including:

• Fertility and IVF
• Menstrual and gynaecological health, including endometriosis
• Pregnancy and maternity
• Mental health and wellbeing of women
• The impacts of violence against women and girls
• Neurodiversity in women
• Menopause

Choose to attend in-person or online. Network with colleagues and take the next steps to becoming a truly inclusive employer.
