Default Equality and Human Rights Commission says make allowances for menopausal women



https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...e-workers.html


[Menopausal women have welcomed
greater recognition for female workers
experiencing 'brutal' symptoms,
but say the proposed initiatives could
risk shaming them.

Guidance from the Equality and
Human Rights Commission (EHRC) issued
to bosses warned they could face legal
action if they do not make 'adjustments'
for menopausal women,
such as quiet rooms and cooler uniforms.
But the move has sparked backlash from
those who disagree with
the menopause being classed as a disability.]

My biggest issue with this move, is that some women will use this as a loophole to not do any work, and fake having Menopause.

Those things would be considered Reasonable Adjustments for those with disabilities. Of course I'm not saying that the aging process is a disability, but what they both have in common is one's biology working against them in some way.
