Health Care Reform Includes FLSA Amendment Requiring Break Time for Nursing Mothers
Davis Wright Tremaine LLP Link to more items from this source
[Guidance Overview]
Apr. 4, 2010
Excerpt: As of March 23, 2010, federal law requires employers to provide nursing mothers 'reasonable break time' to express breast milk for up to one year after the birth of their child. An amendment to the Fair Labor Standards Act containing this requirement was inconspicuously buried in Section 4207 of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, better known as the federal Health Care Reform law. Seventeen states and the District of Columbia already have statutes that speak to an employer's obligation to provide rest breaks for the purpose of expressing milk.
