“…In terms of reproductive stages, senior women may self-medicate to cope with painful periods or indeed menopausal symptoms, or even have Caesarean sections to fit childbirth around work demands (Bell & Sinclair, 2016;Gatrell et al, 2017;Sayers & Jones, 2015). Again, there is an overlap with women's attempts to conceal their reproductive capacity at work as well as references to surgery as part of bodily moulding, an example of which also appears in the next sub-section.…”

“…The golden thread circuits around organizational discourses about ideal worker bodies, and how women are enjoined to respond. Women's bodies -and so women themselves -are understood as leaky, emotional, hormonal and unreliable (Bell & Sinclair, 2016;Gatrell, 2010, 'encumbrances' like children (Atkinson et al, 2021a;Gatrell et al, 2017). Male bodies are 'the norm against which women's performance is measured', with organizational discourses othering women's bodies as needing to be managed, made compliant and/ or hidden (van den Brink & Stobbe, 2009, 454-455; also see Mavin & Grandy, 2016a, 2016bTurner & Norwood, 2014).…”

This paper reviews research on cis women's bodily self-discipline in the workplace. We compare literature exemplifying the 'bodily turn' in organization and management studies to scholarship on menopause at work, to identify key themes across these oeuvres and the significance of the blind spots in each. There is little overlap between them: only eleven organization and management studies publications dealt with menopause. In classifying these literatures using Forbes' (2009) concept of co-modification, we distil four themes: bodily moulding; nondisclosure; failing; and resistance, redefinition and reclamation. Based on this, we argue for more substantive considerations of menopause in organization and management studies, and suggest what the organization and management literature has to offer its sister scholarship. For example, we foreground how menopause exacerbates the visibility paradox facing female workers which organization and management studies identifies; and argue that menopause at work scholarship should pay more attention to specific bodily accommodations, refusals and the 'unscripted' aspects of menopause in organizations.
