HR is the single most stimulating source of strategic, people-centric, business advice, practice and dialogue. For people-focused, forward-thinking, business leaders who want insight into, and examples of, business-contextualised HR to develop high-performing organisations. HR will always seek to give meaningful, relevant and useful business focus to its content. HR magazine does not provide you with 'same old story', but instead always looks to present information strategically.

It’s pink, it’s packed with insights, and its cover story mentions periods. 

 

The time of the month has arrived for the latest edition of HR magazine.

 

“Menstrual health isn’t just a personal concern, it’s a workplace issue,” writes senior reporter Hannah Ross, who interviewed a series of HR leaders and health professionals for this edition’s employee health-focussed cover story. Citing up-to-date research and stats, she explains why “ignoring women’s menstrual health comes at a cost” for employers, and why HR professionals shouldn’t shy away from openly supporting employees who menstruate.

 

Discover the workplace impacts of period stigma, why the health-related language we use matters, how HR professionals can build a menstrual-friendly environment, and more. 

 

Also in the September/October 2025 edition of HR magazine:

·         How clued up is HR about agentic AI?

·         Managing director Snéha Khilay explains why good inclusion work means acknowledging white-majority tensions
