The Power Of Moon Days
Join the movement to create period positivity in the workplace.
Moon Days are a company-wide policy that gives every female employee one day off during her menstrual cycle. Moon Days are meant to accommodate what it innately means to be a woman; to honor what your body goes through each month without shame or stigma.
A study by the National Center for Biomedical Technology Information states that “About 20 to 40% of all girls and women have severe PMS-related problems that affect their daily lives.”

Dear [insert name of HR Manager], I’m writing to let you know about a company policy that Your Super successfully implemented in 2020. It’s called Moon Days, and it’s a company-wide policy that gives every female employee one day off during her menstrual cycle. Below you will find a simple outline of Your Super’s policy. Usage of Policy: Time Off - Employees are given the option to take a half or full day off to address their symptoms.
I wanted to open a discussion about our company adopting the Moon Balance Policy on a trial basis. I understand that adopting a new, company-wide policy is no simple task, but I’d be happy to support the implementation of this policy including tracking its impact and getting initial feedback from our team members. To learn more about this policy, listen to this informative podcast episode. It highlights the benefits of the policy and is packed with education about hormone health. I hope you will consider implementing this policy at [place of work]. I look forward to receiving your thoughts and feedback. Sincerely, [YOUR NAME] |
