Motion text

Congress notes that 51 per cent of the UK’s population is female and one of the biggest health issues that impacts on all women is that connected with both the perimenopause and the menopause.
Congress believes this is a health issue for which there is a widescale lack of knowledge and awareness of its impact in the workplace. Although most institutions have menopause policies that is not the same as making people aware of the impact on both the perimenopause and the menopause on women’s health.
Congress calls for UCU to write to all FE and HE institutions that the nature and impact of both the perimenopause and the menopause there should be included in mandatory training for both staff and students.
