For businesses
The system for women's health at work
1 in 6 women with menopause symptoms have considered leaving their job (CIPD 2023). Menoa is the program that helps you do something about it, and show what you did.
The cost of doing nothing
It's already showing up on the books. Just unnamed.
Untreated menopause is one of the largest hidden mid-career employee costs. It hits absence, healthcare spend, and recruitment at the same time, and never names itself on the balance sheet.
30%
higher absence
Sick leave among women in menopause runs about 30% above baseline. Much of it is never named as menopause-related, and so it never gets prevented.
Norwegian and UK occupational research
1 in 6
have considered leaving
Among women affected, one in six has considered leaving the job because of symptoms. Senior, experienced talent walks out of an age bracket that is expensive to replace.
CIPD 2023
500,000+ NOK
per lost senior employee
Recruiting, onboarding, and lost productivity when an experienced employee leaves. NOU 2025:5 puts the total societal cost at 59 billion NOK per year.

How it fits together
From survey to board report.
The healthcare already exists, with the GP and the occupational health service. What is missing is the system around it: Menoa is alone in Norway in combining a health agent for employees with anonymized insight for HR in one program.
01Overview
Put numbers on the need
You cannot accommodate what you cannot see. Menoa measures the need anonymously and shows where it hurts.
Workforce survey
An anonymous survey across the whole workforce. A report with your own numbers and estimated cost.
Norwegian benchmarks
See how you compare with other Norwegian organizations.
Pulse measurement
Recurring measurements show whether your initiatives work over time.
02Action
From insight to action
Knowledge and tools for the people who need them: the woman going through it, and the manager expected to accommodate.
Health agent for employees
The app gives every woman symptom insight, knowledge and sourced answers. Voluntary and private.
AI advisor for HR and managers
Concrete guidance when a manager asks what to do now. The answers build on your own policy and the Working Environment Act section 4-3a.
Manager training
Digital modules with conversation guides and checklists. Completion certificates, ready for your LMS.
03Documentation
Prove the effort
What you do should hold up in front of the board, the auditor and in tenders.
ISO 45010 and policy
Policy templates based on NOU 2025:5, with documentation that follows the new ISO 45010 standard.
HR insight
A quarterly board report, trends by department and figures ready for the sustainability report.
Certification
Get certified as a menopause-friendly workplace, with a mark you can use in recruitment.
When an employee needs healthcare, Menoa points the way to the GP, the occupational health service or a gynecologist. The system replaces none of them.
The dashboard
What HR sees in the dashboard.
Anonymized trends, alerts and reports ready for the board.
- Trends by department
- Locked below 5 responses
- Export to PDF and ESG
For employees
What the employees get.
Every woman gets the Menoa app. It is hers, not the employer's: she decides whether to use it, and nothing she writes can be read by HR.

Security and privacy
Built for sensitive health data
Menopause is personal. Menoa is built from the ground up to handle sensitive health information with the care it requires.
Voluntariness is built into the data model, not a setting that can be turned off. The employee owns their data and can export or delete everything in one click.
GDPR Article 9
Menoa is built to handle sensitive health information. Employees give explicit consent before data is collected.
Data in EU/EEA
All data is hosted in Azure Sweden Central. Data never leaves the EU/EEA.
Aggregated trends only
The HR dashboard never shows individual data. Statistics are locked until at least 5 employees have registered data.
The employee owns their data
Employees can withdraw consent, download or delete all their data at any time.
Data processing agreement ready
Signed DPA follows GDPR requirements. Download and send to your legal department.
SSO with your company IdP
Microsoft Entra ID, Okta or Google Workspace. SCIM keeps your employee list in sync automatically. Rollout in under an hour.
Grounding
The foundation we build on.
Menoa is live on the App Store. We say what is in place, and what is coming.
Clinical content
All health content is reviewed against NICE NG23, IMS and the Norwegian Directorate of Health guidelines before publication. A medical advisor will be engaged and named once an agreement is signed.
Law and standards
The program is anchored in the Working Environment Act section 4-3a, NOU 2025:5 and the new ISO 45010 standard for menstruation and menopause at work. The technical co-founder's background is from DNV.
Norwegian data
The workforce survey builds Norwegian benchmarks for women's health at work. The pilot companies help shape the product, and their experience goes straight into development.
- GDPR article 9 procedures
- All data in the EU/EEA
- Data processing agreement ready for signing

From contract to first report
The first 30 days
Here is the path from signed agreement to the first board report.
Week 1
Survey and setup
The survey goes out to the whole workforce while SSO is set up with your company IdP (Microsoft Entra ID, Okta or Google Workspace). The data processing agreement is signed. IT typically spends under an hour.
Week 2-3
Manager training and launch
The manager modules roll out and the policy template is adapted to you. Employees are invited to the app with an information email you can customize. Use is 100% voluntary, and employees can opt in or out whenever they want.
Week 4
First report
The survey report with your own numbers and benchmarks is delivered. The HR dashboard unlocks once at least five employees have shared data, and the first monthly report with concrete recommendations goes to management.
Pilot program
We are looking for pilot companies in the autumn of 2026.
From January 1, 2026, the psychosocial work environment was tightened in law. NOU 2025:5 points directly at the responsibility employers have to take menopause seriously. Most HR departments agree in principle. Few have a concrete measure.
The implementation gap.
That is the gap we call the implementation gap. Between what is in the equality plan and what a 49-year-old woman can actually ask for when sleep collapses and concentration disappears.
We've been talking about this for two years without doing anything. What we lack isn't will. What we lack is something concrete to point to.

Questions we get
What we are asked before you sign.
How large must the company be?
We recommend a minimum of 20 women 40 and over, so that the HR insight carries signal given the privacy threshold of 5. Smaller companies can still apply: the survey, manager training and the app deliver full value regardless of size.
What happens after the three months?
You receive an evaluation report with participation data, wellbeing trends and concrete recommendations. Based on it, you decide whether to continue with Menoa Program. No automatic renewal.
How do we involve employee representatives?
We recommend that HR informs employee representatives and safety delegates before launch. We provide a short conversation template you can use. The offer is voluntary for employees, and data is not used for individual follow-up.
What does IT need to know?
Azure in Sweden, AES-256 encryption, SSO via your company IdP (Entra ID, Okta or Google Workspace), data processing agreement ready for signing. We offer a 15-minute meeting with IT leadership if needed. The IT one-pager can be downloaded above.
Who sees what on the HR dashboard?
HR sees aggregated trends from at least 5 users, never data tied to individuals, never names or emails. It is built into the data model, not a setting that can be turned off.
Can we start with just the survey?
Yes. Menoa Insight costs NOK 20,000 and gives you the report, the benchmarks and recommended next steps. Many start there before deciding on the rest of the program.
Is this just an app?
No. The app is the tool each woman uses. The company buys the system around it: a survey with Norwegian benchmarks, manager training, policy and documentation built for the ISO 45010 standard, HR insight and a dedicated AI advisor for HR and managers.
Can we see the product before we sign?
Yes. A 30-minute call with Lene shows the survey, the HR dashboard and what onboarding looks like. You get access to a test version of the HR dashboard before signing, and the start date fits you. Many choose to launch after the summer.
Menoa is developed with clinical grounding. A medical advisor is on board and will be named publicly when the contract is signed.
Next step
See the system in practice. 30 minutes is enough.
Book a meeting and we will walk through the survey, the HR dashboard and the AI advisor, and set up a plan that fits you. No commitment.
