🖤 We absolutely love how Learnerbly destigmatise certain topics, including their page on period’s at work, with a clear message to all who experience them that this is important to Learnerbly. This builds an unbelievable amount of trust and inclusivity with talent.

This page is here to help destigmatise the dialogue and encourage everyone to feel comfortable with doing what it takes to get better. Why?
1- we spend a lot of time in the workplace
2- period symptoms don't accommodate to anyone's meetings schedule
<aside> 🌝 TL;DR Talking about menstruations and adapting your worklife around it is ok
</aside>
Historically, periods have been leveraged to exclude females from work environments designed for and by men. If men were regarded as the norm, then the inherited assumption is that everyone should be able to perform at their full potential across the month.
As an inheritance, the dialogue can be stigmatised and it can be difficult being comfortable doing whatever you need to feel better. But menstruating can impact both physical and mental health, anywhere from relatively and substantially, varying between individuals and cycles.
If you're feeling unwell, do what you need to feel better! Whether it's making use of our flexible working policy or going for a walk around the block for a breather or even to take sick leave.
Period complications are a thing, no one expects you to work with crippling cramps or a migraine — no matter the cause.
