More women are striving to balance work and family and we
encourage you to make changes to promote family friendly policies
in the workplace environment. Creating a lactation room and
supporting breastfeeding mothers can be very beneficial to
your company. Some benefits are a tax credit for the lactation
room, decreased maternal absenteeism and a decrease in the
amount of medical visits (babies who are breastfed have fewer
illnesses than formula fed babies). Services that your company
provides to breastfeeding women may be utilized in advertising
material to gain employees for the company.
