3 questions I wish line managers would ask when employees share fertility challenges
Navigating fertility challenges while balancing work responsibilities can be emotionally draining and deeply personal. I know firsthand how difficult it can be to open up about these struggles, fearing judgement or simply wanting to keep it private. But as workplaces strive for inclusivity, it's essential for line managers to respond with sensitivity and support when an employee confides in them about their fertility journey.
