AN ACT to amend the labor law, in relation to nursing employees
AI Summary
This bill amends existing labor law to enhance protections for nursing employees by allowing them to request a dedicated sink or individual basin specifically for washing breast pump attachments within the designated nursing room at their workplace. Previously, employers were only required to provide nearby access to clean running water, but this change, effective immediately, grants employees the right to request this specialized washing facility, ensuring a more hygienic and convenient environment for expressing breast milk.
