Menstruation in the workplace

Description of the illustration

A woman sits in an office chair at a computer desk, with a blanket covering her legs while she holds her lower back in discomfort. For many people, menstruation can have a significant impact on how they work, or what they have to persevere through to continue working ‘as usual’. This is particularly true for people who experience disruptive discomfort from menstrual cramps and lower back pain. How can we make workplaces more accessible and caring for people who menstruate?
