Defining the Future of Workplaces: New standards for reproductive health in business

The first Annual Report of the Coalition for Reproductive Justice in Business, a flagship UNFPA initiative, documents a year of enormous progress as forward-thinking businesses redefine corporate social responsibility by embedding women’s health and rights in their business models. Investing in the sexual and reproductive health of women, who make up 40 per cent of the global workforce, is not only the right thing to do but is also good business practice.

The Coalition’s 27 members and 10 champions are setting new standards for reproductive health at work through investment, accountability, and advocacy. Their efforts in 2025 reached nearly 800,000 of their own employees, with the potential to influence global supply chains. This report showcases how companies are achieving and measuring reproductive health gains, pioneering the world’s first scorecard on reproductive health in the workplace, and modeling leadership on issues like menopause and fertility.
