A social media post by a woma has sparked a wave of appreciation online after she shared a thoughtful message from her company’s founder regarding menstrual health and workplace wellbeing. Archana Sharma, a social media marketer, took to LinkedIn to highlight the gesture and reflect on how deeply it resonated with her, especially after experiencing difficult work environments in the past.
A message that moved employees
Sharma wrote, “We received this from our founder today. Coming from toxic work environments before, this means more than words can explain. It is a reminder that a good workplace isn’t defined by perks or policies but by empathy, trust, and respect.” Attached to her post was a screenshot of the message sent to the entire team, announcing a new employee centred provision.
In the message, the founder stated, “Dear Team, Menstrual health is an essential part of every woman. From today, if our female colleagues are undergoing their menstrual cycles, they can rest and be at home. It won’t be counted as an off. Health and well-being is above all.”
