The employee shared details of the alleged workplace insensitivity in a Reddit post, which included a screenshot of her conversation with the director. In the post, the employee explained she had been in severe pain since the previous day and needed rest, requesting that a colleague cover her one-hour Sunday workshop. The director's alleged response was: "Pls don't cancel workshops every week. It reflects very bad on us". "We have online workshops every sunday (smh) with another ngo, despite only having Monday to Friday 8-4pm working days. This time, we held a training program for staff at a college which lasted for two days, fri and sat 9am to 4.30pm. I had no choice but to attend, despite dying from the pain because of my period but I still finished my responsibilities. I requested for someone in our team to take the sunday 1-hr weekly workshop and this what the director told me. No 'take care' or 'it's fine'. No feedback on our work yesterday and the day before. This is an NGO in Mumbai which works for suicide prevention and mental health. This is our reality," the post read.
