Cortlin Bond Quoted in SHRM on Employer-Provided Accommodations for Pregnant and Nursing Employees
November, 2023 - Birmingham, Alabama
Bradley attorney Cortlin Bond was quoted in a SHRM article regarding a recent employee lawsuit about reasonable accommodations for pregnant and nursing workers.
Bond said employers should take into consideration the amount of time it takes for a person to walk to the lactation room. Two recent federal laws have been enacted after an employee’s lawsuit requesting accommodations.
"Some states have laws specifying a required length of time for lactation breaks that increase if the lactation room is not close to the employee's workspace," said Bond.
The full article, “Employer Wins Case Over Lactation Accommodations,” was published by SHRM on November 27, 2023.
