Period Policy at Evouke
At Evouke, we believe in fostering a supportive and understanding work environment. We understand that menstruation is a natural, yet sometimes challenging, part of life for many individuals. Our Period Policy provides a framework for empathy, understanding, and respect surrounding menstruation.
Our policy includes:
Understanding Flexibility: We understand that periods can be unpredictable and can affect individuals differently. Hence, we offer our team the flexibility to manage their work around their cycle. If you're not feeling your best, adjust your schedule as you see fit - we trust you to manage your time and responsibilities.
Respectful Communication: We aim to create a culture where everyone feels comfortable discussing menstruation when they choose to. We believe in using respectful and considerate language that does not stigmatize or belittle this natural biological process.
Remote Work Comfort: Given our fully remote work culture, we understand the comfort of being at home during your period. You are welcome to adjust your schedule as needed for your comfort and wellbeing.
Supporting Resources: We're in the process of collating online resources on menstruation and menstrual health. These resources will be made available to all team members to help foster understanding and empathy.
We hope this policy makes it clear that at Evouke, we respect and honour the natural processes of our bodies. We are committed to being a place where everyone feels seen, heard, and supported, every day of the month.
By sharing this policy publicly, we wish to contribute to a broader conversation and inspire other companies to create workplaces that respect and accommodate the natural bodily processes of their employees.
