8-week online training: Cyclic Leadership
In our society, it is still not common to talk about menstrual issues. Within many companies and schools, it is often taboo to discuss menstrual disorders or related absenteeism, and if there are many male colleagues or employers, this is even more difficult.
A woman takes an average of 9 days off annually because of her menstruation. This costs employers around 8 billion euros per year, either due to reduced productioon or the need for substitutes. With more awareness of their menstrual cycle, it is expected that this number of
days will decrease. Because then she can indicate her limits on time or simply work from home.
