ELA Webinar: Beyond the Pause – The Case for Menopause-Inclusive Workplaces and How to Build One, Sept. 24

In June 2025, Rhode Island became the first state to legislate specific menopause workplace protections. Around the world – in the UK, Australia, Africa – government and businesses are creating laws and developing policies to support for employees experiencing perimenopause and menopause. In this free webinar, to be held Sept. 24, 3-4am HST, the Employment Law Alliance (ELA) in collaboration with the Africa Legal Network (ALN) and Balance@Work, a UK-based hormone health workplace program, will discuss “Beyond the Pause,” a global campaign mapping the legal terrain on menopause for employers. As the sole Hawaii member of the ELA, ES&A invites you to attend this free webinar. For more details and to register, see the complete program announcement here
