  "account": "A survey by the PAP Women's Wing and NTUC Women and Family found that women's health and well-being needs change as they move through different life stages. Early-career women reported high stress and burnout, while caregivers prioritized flexible work arrangements. Only one in ten women experiencing perimenopause or menopause symptoms felt their workplace was receptive to discussing support. The survey of 2,375 working women aged 18 and above found that flexible work arrangements were valued across different demographics, but women must feel confident using them without being seen as less committed. Addressing mental health issues and providing supportive work environments are crucial for women's success in the workplace.",
  "summary": "Early-career women reported burnout, caregivers cited flexible work as helpful workplace support, while only one in 10 experiencing perimenopause or menopause symptoms felt their workplace was open to discussing support. The survey was conducted by the PAP Women's Wing and NTUC Women and Family.",
