In a post on X, the DOL shared a link to a blog post about Menstrual Hygiene Day and five ways that employers can make their workplaces "menstruation friendly" for "menstruators."
"To commemorate this Menstrual Hygiene Day, the Women’s Bureau is breaking down the stereotypes and stigmas that have made menstruation a taboo topic in the workplace," the DOL’s blog post read. "Menstruation is a natural part of half our population’s life, and yet it has been overlooked in the context of work — perhaps because it is seen as a personal issue or uncomfortable to discuss."
