In this episode, host Julia Streets is joined by Sophie Creese, Founder of MotherBoard, and Eleanor Mills, Editor in Chief of noon.org.uk. They explore the current landscape of women at work; the ages and stages of women in the workforce: from mothers to ‘Queenagers’, which now includes five generations. They discuss opportunities for women in midlife, the wasted economic and skills potential, the (not so) ‘great break up’ and the reality of gendered ageism. They discuss policies and best practice around reproductive health for employees, particularly during pregnancy, the requirements for returning mothers and recognises the midlife pinch facing women before they emerge into the ‘sunny uplands’ post-menopause.
