MENSTRUAL LEAVE INTRODUCED IN INDIA FOR FEMALE POLICE. (PHOTO).


 

The Itanagar Capital Region Police in Arunachal Pradesh has taken a significant step towards supporting female personnel by introducing menstrual leave. Under a recent memorandum issued by SP (Capital) Rohit Rajbir Singh, female police officers can now take one day of special leave during the first or second day of their menstrual cycle. This progressive decision acknowledges the physical challenges many women face during menstruation and aims to create a more inclusive workplace.


In contrast, Assam has yet to implement a similar policy for its women police officers, despite the physically demanding nature of their roles. Many female officers in Assam handle traffic control and frontline law enforcement duties, requiring them to work long hours outdoors in all weather conditions. The absence of menstrual leave has raised concerns about workplace equality and the overall well-being of women in the police force.


Advocates for menstrual health emphasize that such policies can improve morale, enhance productivity, and create a supportive work environment. A retired Assam police official, speaking anonymously, highlighted the need for menstrual leave in the state. “Women in Assam police face tough challenges, especially those working long hours in traffic control. A policy like this could greatly benefit them,” the official said.


While Assam has made progress in recruiting and training women in its law enforcement, experts believe policies like menstrual leave could further improve working conditions. Introducing such measures would not only support female personnel but also set an example for promoting gender-sensitive reforms in workplaces across the region.
