If you suffer from PMS related mood swings, how do you prevent reacting, saying, or doing something that you will later regret?
Do you think it ever affects your job performance?
Should an employer make any concessions for this situation?
Background:
I have about a dozen female employees and at least two of them seem to be affected by this. They are normally good workers, but about 1-2 days a month, they seem to struggle in dealing withe normal workplace annoyances, so I adjust my performance expectations on those days.
(One of the other employees gives me a heads up - she's nosy, but at least I know what's going on).
We also have a disabled person who we make special arrangements (and sometimes concessions) for.
Should I consider it the same as the disabled person or issue performance warnings, since their job performance is lower in comparison to the other workers on those "days" consistently?
I know how to deal with this at home, but we are under pressure to produce.
