FREE WEBINAR:
The Business Case for Breastfeeding:
Compliance with the Worksite Lactation Accommodation Law
Thursday, December 15th from 12-1pm EST

Supporting breastfeeding employees is pivotal to a company's family-friendly platform, with proven financial benefits to businesses, including an ROI of 3 to 1. It's also the law. The U.S. Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act has specific provisions requiring businesses to implement basic lactation support. In this webinar, we'll provide HR managers with practical tools for implementing worksite lactation support programs that meet federal requirements, with options for enhancements that help employees meet their breastfeeding goals and result in higher productivity and loyalty to your company.

We invite you to join Cathy Carothers and Kendall Cox from Every Mother, Inc. for this free webinar to learn:

* What are the requirements under the ACA for worksite lactation support?
* How does lactation support improve your company’s bottom line?
* What are the basic needs of breastfeeding employees?
* What are practical ways to meet the time and space requirements of the law?
* What resources can help you establish lactation support
