Specialist HR Gender Pay Gap and Menopause Action Plan Consultancy
A Gender Pay Gap Action Plan must account for menopause related impacts on retention, pay & progression. A Menopause Action Plan must address the impacts on retention, pay, progression, & equity.
We can support with the clear alignment between both plans which is essential to meeting organisational duties under employment and equality legislation.
We specialise in helping organisations develop aligned Gender Pay Gap and Menopause Action Plans that recognise the shared factors influencing pay, progression, and midlife retention. By integrating both plans, employers create more inclusive, equitable, and sustainable workplace cultures.
We also work with organisations to provide a broad portfolio of HR and OD development services — from culture diagnostics/analysis, training and policy expertise to employment relations support and strategic consultancy.
