EndoThrive: Creating Workplaces Where People with Endometriosis Can Thrive

Nearly 1 million Australians live with endometriosis, facing chronic pain regularly, fatigue, disrupted careers, and overlooked mental health challenges.

Workplaces can change this story. By increasing awareness and becoming endometriosis-friendly, organisations can create environments where people are supported, feel valued and able to thrive no matter their situation.

That’s why we’ve launched EndoThrive, our workplace accreditation program, which helps businesses build cultures that are flexible, inclusive, and truly supportive of those living with endometriosis and other chronic conditions.

Together, we can create workplaces where no one is left behind.

EndoAcademy scholarship to deliver 100 endometriosis nurses to regional, rural and remote areas

• 1 in 7 women are impacted by endometriosis by the age of 49, and specialist nursing support across Australia is critical, especially in rural, remote and regional areas.
