Elaine Banton is representing Maria Rooney in a multi-day substantial case involving menopausal discrimination.

Maria Rooney’s claims are supported by the Equality and Human Rights Commission. EHRC Chairwoman Baroness Kishwer Falkner said:

“Menopause symptoms can significantly affect someone’s ability to work. Employers have a responsibility to support employees going through the menopause – it is to their benefit to do so, and the benefit of the wider workforce. Every employer should take note of this hearing.”

The case is also covered by the BBC, The Independent, The Times and The Telegraph among others.
