Taking Menstruation to the Workplace: The Effect of Work Environment on the Relationship between the Menstrual Cycle, Women’s Work Performance and Well-Being (BestMasters)

By Ariela Ramici This book delves into the intricate relationship between workplace environments and women's menstrual health, work performance, and overall well-being. Through extensive survey analysis, it uncovers a pervasive lack of awareness and stigma surrounding menstruation-related topics in workplaces, leading to discomfort and the concealment of symptoms among women. While workplace environmental factors and stressors do not directly cause menstrual health issues, perceived stress has shown to significantly influence women's occupational health and safety. Challenges such as inadequate pain management and cultural taboos further exacerbate the situation. The book emphasizes the importance of educational initiatives and fostering supportive, inclusive workplace cultures and leadership to address these challenges. Future research should focus on global trends and gender-specific stress responses. By prioritizing menstrual health in workplace wellness initiatives, organizations can create inclusive environments that enhance overall well-being and productivity for all employees.
