SV introduces leave for menstruation and menopause

Sustainability Victoria

Sustainability Victoria is proud to launch its Menstruation and Menopause Policy today, providing support and relief to staff members who are experiencing symptoms of menstruation or menopause.

As part of SV’s commitment to providing an inclusive and diverse workplace, the policy offers additional paid leave as well as other flexible work options which can be tailored to suit each staff member’s needs.

SV’s Chief People Officer Hannah Vine said the idea for the policy was sparked by a conversation among members of the agency’s Gender Equality Working Group. The policy has since been supported by staff and endorsed by the executive leadership team.
