“How this has affected my fertility is a big concern to me, especially as I don’t yet have children of my own and I am 37.
“The introduction of the Peppy app has been invaluable to me. I have been able to speak to a fertility and women’s health practitioner instantly via the private chat function.
“I was able to discuss my experience and concerns on the chat when convenient to me and then follow up with an appointment if I felt it was necessary.
“Having an employer that recognises the need to support its employees like this is fantastic.”
Kier group rewards director Caroline Forsyth said the app was “hugely successful” and they added the additional module as soon as it became available.
