Reproductive health challenges are a key, but often overlooked factor influencing the attraction, progression, and retention of female talent. In fact, reproductive-related attrition accounts for 24% of female employee departures, leading to significant costs in lost skills, productivity, and team cohesion.

This session by Sophie Creese from HeyFlow will unpack the critical link between reproductive health and the female talent lifecycle, revealing why this issue matters to every business.

We’ll explore what organisations can do to create truly inclusive workplaces that support women throughout all stages of their lives, and why doing so is not only the right thing, but also a smart business strategy.

Who’s it for?

This session is for anyone – from the simply curious to team leaders and decision-makers – who want to understand how reproductive health impacts women’s career progression and what can be done to better support and retain female talent in the workplace.
