BBC News: Bristol firm plans to give women time off for periods
"A company is planning to introduce a "period policy" to allow female staff to work flexibly around their menstrual cycles.
Co-Exist in Bristol says women will be allowed to take time off during their period and make up the time later.
Director Bex Baxter told the Bristol Post she had seen women at work "bent over double" in pain but unwilling to go home which was "unfair".
Menstrual leave exists in Japan, parts of China, South Korea and Taiwan.
It is thought the company is one of the first firms to introduce it in the UK."
