You are proud to be associated with an organisation that has worked tirelessly to promote a culture of equality. In the past few years since your joining the company, the gender ratio has improved dramatically. In fact, the organisation is touted as one of the best places to work and won the fifth place in the prestigious "Great Places to Work" listing for the year 2020. The management is keen on getting the coveted top spot for the next year. Naturally, a lot of impetus is laid on improving the existing policies and the company has gained a feverish momentum to make it happen. There are quarterly ideation meetings to share the best ideas that would enhance the employee engagement and experience. You have been deliberating for a while if proposing menstrual leave would be a good idea. It has been a topic of discussion among the women at work in informal settings but you believe that the time is nigh to broach the subject. You are cognizant of the fact that menstrual leave is still widely controversial. As Emily Matchar from The Atlantic so eloquently puts it: "Do these policies simply further the notion that women are weak, hormonally-addled creatures controlled by their uteri? Or do they encourage more equality by accommodating female workers' biological demands, much as maternity leave does?" You know it will not be easy to persuade the board. Nevertheless, you decide to make a compelling case for it at the next meeting. Address the Board now!
