Period equality means giving access to period products so that no one is disadvantaged by having their period at work. It acknowledges and respects the physical and emotional reality of menstruation, a natural process that's part of many employees' lives. Having period products available when employees need them helps to remove the stigma around periods and any possible discomfort.
