    "Co-Exist in Bristol says women will be allowed to take time off during their period and make up the time later"

    If that`s the case why does it matter?

    Presume they would would take 3-5 days off per month, then work additional hours to catch up. I guess most would want to work normal time, rather than having to catch up 30 days a year as extra time the rest of the year.

    Possibly.

    The point I was trying to make is that if it`s a flexible arrangement and no time is actually lost then it`s a fuss over nowt really. All it`s doing is helping an employee. The reason is irrelevant. If an employee needed a couple of days off a month for hospital treatment (or any other reason) and made the time up nobody would be the least bit bothered.

    Do you actually need that comment explained to you? I mean, I'm not going to no matter what your answer is I just need to ascertain how much pity I need to have for you.

    How many views has this thread had?

    You're the first person to take that comment seriously.

    You're one of those people who complain on behalf of other people aren't you?

    I think "The human rights activists and feminists will be along imminently " was the important bit mate.

    Probably right imo. They won`t want to miss out on that one.

    nope, I never complain on other people's behalf - if they can't be arsed to argue their corner why the **** should I? I just don't get what periods have to do with race...
    If you had said it was a joke (after I had asked) I'd have said I didn't get it but then I have always been slow on the uptake...so now I know it was a joke...

    It wasn't a joke, it wasn't supposed to be funny, it was just a tongue in cheek way of expressing an extreme view as to how this news may be perceived. It really doesn't need this much attention!

    Have a nice evening mate, no hard feelings <ok>

    when a boss can legally sack and discipline you for being genuinely ill I can not see this being something women will be able to use.
    my local council (who I also work for) once sacked a bloke with cance... 2 weeks after he died!

    With every respect mate I reckon the feminist man-haters will use everything they can whenever they can. Just my opinion though.

    That bit about the council. That is shocking. I hope they were taken to task over it.
