Abstract
With the advent of more women either entering or returning to work and continuing to work in their later years, women in menopause now form the fastest growing demographic in contemporary organisations. However, without organisations putting in place adequate structures to provide the right kind of support for this demographic, several organisations risk losing women who form part of the top talent in organisations and who are at the peak of their careers. Despite the growing body of research on providing support for women experiencing menopausal symptoms, it is still a body of work that is viewed as being insufficient to arrive at meaningful interventions from a policy perspective. Not only is the research inadequate in understanding how best to support women experiencing menopause in general, but it is also lacking when it comes to examining the complexities of the challenges faced by women in menopause who belong to ethnic minority groupings and face other intersectional challenges simultaneously. Resultantly, this development paper initiates an investigation into the complexities of the effects of intersectional challenges on the performance of ethnic minority women experiencing menopausal symptoms in the workplace.
