MENOPAUSE AT WORK: WHAT EMPLOYERS NEED TO KNOW NOW
THE M FACTOR 2: Before the Pause explores perimenopause and what employers need to understand about supporting employees in the workplace.

Perimenopause doesn’t stay at home when employees come to work.

THE M FACTOR 2: Before the Pause explores the years before menopause, when hormonal changes can affect energy, focus, sleep, mood, and overall wellbeing, often long before anyone talks about it.

For employers, understanding perimenopause is part of creating a workplace where employees feel supported, understood, and able to thrive.

And the experience goes beyond the film. The evening includes an expert panel, a live Q&A, a community experience, and a resource guide to take home.
