Two days remain until the 2026 FIFA World Cup kicks off.

What makes this World Cup different is its sheer scale. For the first time in history, 48 teams will compete instead of the traditional 32, increasing the number of matches from 64 to 104 and making it the biggest FIFA World Cup ever staged.

The competition will also be hosted by three countries, the USA, Canada, and Mexico, rather than a single host nation. With more teams and more games, the tournament will last 39 days, running from June 11 to July 19.

That means more football, more surprises, more unforgettable moments, and more chances for nations to make history.

Who are you backing to lift the trophy this year?

A progressive workplace policy was implemented in Nairobi, granting female county employees up to two paid days off each month to manage menstrual pain, discomfort, and related health challenges. However, time will tell how fully and consistently the policy is implemented in practice.

Similar policies exist in countries including Japan, South Korea, Indonesia, Zambia, and Spain.

For some women, menstrual pain and conditions such as Endometriosis can significantly affect daily activities and workplace productivity.

Should more employers, county governments, and even the national government consider menstrual leave policies?
