We are really pleased to announce that on 23rd July Rustington Hall received the menopause friendly organisation accreditation.
In order to achieve this Rustington Hall was assessed by an independent panel and had to demonstrate evidence of its effectiveness in five key areas: culture, policies and practices, training, engagement and working environment.
Industry-recognised and the only accreditation that sets clear standards which must be met, the Menopause Friendly Accreditation is truly meaningful and considered as a mark of excellence for menopause in the workplace. It acknowledges employers who have demonstrated the positive impact of their actions in supporting people experience menopause.
Deborah Garlick, CEO and Founder of Henpicked: Menopause in the Workplace made the following comment:
“Rustington Hall impressed our panel by showing how the culture change started with staff requests for help and shared lived experiences readily taken on board by senior leaders to bring about some all-important adjustments. Despite being a small organisation, they have engaged with a good range of training and 80% of their staff have already benefitted from this. Furthermore, the organisation tracks data to chart its progress and this proved to our panel that menopause is strongly embedded in its culture.”
