UofL Policies
Lactation Resources
Federal and State law require break time and private space for nursing mothers
In 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act amended the Fair Labor Standards Act to require employers to provide a nursing mother reasonable break time to express breast milk and a place for an employee to do so. For more information about this law, please visit the U.S. Department of Labor's website.
The business case for supporting nursing mothers has been made
Research has shown that employer- sponsored lactation support programs result in lower absenteeism for both moms and dads, lower healthcare costs (newborn health care costs are typically about three times less for babies of breastfeeding women) greater retention of valuable employees and increased productivity and loyalty from employees. For more information, visit the Office on Women's Health webpage.
Obtaining Breasts Pumps for Students (According to Healthcare.gov)
Your health insurance plan must cover the cost of a breast pump. It may be either a rental unit or a new one you’ll keep.
Your plan may have guidelines on whether the covered pump is manual or electric, the length of the rental, and when you’ll receive it (before or after birth) so contact your health insurance provider first.
