Stop losing experienced women in the midlife window.

You are not buying menopause education. You are asking what is happening to women inside this organisation. Silence isn't absence — presenteeism, manager freeze, the quiet reduction of responsibility. An EAP helps when someone asks; most never ask. We help Irish employers diagnose the risk, equip managers, and leave a 90-day plan. Primary offer: Action Plan Readiness Sprint (typically €12,500).

The policy context — in 60 seconds
The State moved first

Menopause in the Workplace Policy Framework across the Civil Service; HSE menopause policy live; HSA employer guidance published.

Employees expect it now

HRT is State-funded and menopause is on the national agenda. Silence at work reads as a choice.

Most employers don't know how

A policy PDF isn't support. Confident managers and practical training are — and that's what we deliver.

Why us

Credible, practical, and honest about scope.

Your people will feel it

Warm, practical, human sessions — recognition first, jargon never. The feedback we optimise for: "I finally felt understood at work."

Policy-fit, not policy-theatre

Everything aligns to the Irish framework and HSA guidance, so what you build stands up to scrutiny — and to your staff's lived experience.

Measured outcomes

We track participation, manager confidence and retention intent before and after — so your wellbeing spend has numbers behind it at renewal time.

Free tool for HR & finance

The cost of doing nothing — for your workforce.

Our ROI calculator turns your own headcount into a euro figure: attrition, absence and presenteeism, with every assumption visible and adjustable. Sixty seconds, and the retention conversation changes.

"It's not a wellbeing nice-to-have. It's a retention issue with a number on it — and the number is usually bigger than the training budget."
