Menopause Transitions and the Workplace cover

The symptoms of menopause transitions have profound implications for work and are, in turn, affected by work. Despite this, the topic is rarely discussed in management and organization studies.

Providing an overview of existing knowledge in the field of menopause in the workplace, this collection re-theorizes the management of human resources as it relates to the connections between gender, age and the body in the workplace environment with an intersectional analysis.

Offering theoretical frameworks from experts as well as possible practical approaches that can be implemented in workplaces to support women transitioning through menopause, this is a go-to reference for academics and policy makers working in the field.

“Despite receiving more attention in policy and social agendas, the intricacies of the ways in which menopause is experienced in work remain underexplored. This timely book offers much-needed insight from an impressive collection of international experts.” Wendy Loretto, University of Edinburgh Business School
