New York State has enacted a new law requiring employers to provide paid break time for breastfeeding mothers to pump breast milk at work. The law, which took effect on June 19, mandates that employers must offer 30 minutes of paid break time for this purpose. This requirement applies for the first three years of the child's life. Governor Kathy Hochul, New York's first female governor, emphasized her commitment to supporting working parents with this new regulation. The New York State Department of Labor has issued updated materials to help employers comply with the new workplace lactation rights. The law is part of broader efforts in employment law and health to support working parents in the Empire State.
