How much does menopause workplace support save your company?

Calculate the cost of menopause sick leave

Symptoms brought on by menopause cause more sick days, and less productivity, and can even make women quit their jobs.

These problems cost businesses dearly due to rehiring costs, retraining costs, and loss of output.

However, proper menopause workplace support can help to stop this from happening. Use our custom calculator to find out exactly how much your business could save.

How does the calculator work?

We built a formula based on female employment numbers (over 50), the average UK office workforce, and workplace re-hiring and output costs.

Statistics and evidence we used to build the calculator:

Women over 50 make up 13.5% of the average UK company’s workforce according to the employment figures from the ONS.

A study conducted by HR platform CircleIn in partnership with Victoria Women’s Trust found that 1/8 of women actually leave their jobs due to the severity of their menopause symptoms.

The total cost of fully replacing a staff member with someone of the same quality is £30,614 according to an HR review. This takes into account logistical hiring costs, loss of output, and training required.

These statistics allow us to build a general estimate of the number of employees within your company who might be at risk of leaving their jobs and losing productive output due to a lack of menopause support in your company.

It is important to note that our formula is based on estimates and the real cost of having no-menopause support in your workplace vs your total number of employees could be far higher.
