Provide and encourage your employer to adopt the Breastfeeding Support Model Policy. The policy provides a framework for businesses to support breastfeeding employees and includes information on the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act which requires employers (with ≥ 50 employees) to provide nursing mothers with:
1) reasonable break time to express breast milk for one year after her child’s birth each time such employee has the need to express breast milk; and
2) a private space, other than a bathroom, that is shielded from view and free from intrusion of others, to express breast milk.
