CHARLOTTE, N.C., June 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Bank of America published Break Through the Stigma: Menopause in the Workplace, a new report revealing half of peri- and post-menopausal women (51%) report menopause has negatively impacted their work life, yet only 14% believe their employers recognize the need for menopause-specific benefits. The underrecognized need for menopause-specific benefits comes as 20% of the workforce is in some phase of menopause transition1 and the number of post-menopausal women is expected to reach 1.1 billion by 2025 globally2.

Key Points:

"With this report, we are addressing the issue head-on by bringing awareness to the challenges and identifying actions for employers.
Our goal is to help women of all life stages comfortably and confidently bring their best selves to work."
In addition, while 71% of employers have a positive perception of their company's culture toward menopause, only 32% of women employees share that same perspective.
The number one reason employers say they do not offer menopause-specific benefits is that employees have not asked for them.
