The Civil Service Menopause in the Workplace Policy Framework has been developed by DPENDR in collaboration with the Women’s Health Taskforce in the Department of Health.
The Framework was developed under the guidance of a Steering Group chaired by DPENDR and comprised of clinical leads in the area of women’s health and occupational health experts from the Civil Service and the HSE.
This Civil Service Menopause in the Workplace Policy Framework provides an overarching structure to guide Civil Service organisations when developing Menopause policies and identifies ways that they can support employees such as by offering workplace adjustments.
The Framework also includes a policy template which can be adapted for use across the wider public service.
Additionally the Civil Service Employee Assistance Service have developed Guidance to assist both managers and employees in fostering an inclusive environment where employees can openly and comfortably engage in discussion about menopause and its impact on them.
The Menopause Framework and Guidance is an important step in delivering on key commitments made in the Programme for Government to promote Women’s Health and to increase public supports available to women before, during and after menopause.
It is also aligns to strategic commitments made under Civil Service Renewal 2030 and Better Public Services 2030 to improve to foster workforce equality, diversity, inclusion and wellbeing and to develop and implement progressive HR policies.
