Employees are also covered under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).
The FMLA entitles eligible employees to take unpaid job-protected leave for specified family and medical reasons while keeping their health insurance.
The FLSA requires employers to provide reasonable break time for employees to pump breast milk for a year after childbirth. Employees must also have private, non-bathroom places to pump, away from co-workers and the public.
The FMLA and FLSA are enforced by the Department of Labor (DOL). Employees can request services by contacting their supervisor or Human Resources.
