This policy outlines the provisions introduced by the 2023 Act, which amends the Maternity Protection Acts 1994 to 2022, extending the period during which employees who are breastfeeding are entitled to take breaks or reduce their working hours for breastfeeding purposes. This policy aims to foster a supportive and inclusive work environment for employees who are breastfeeding, in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
The HRLocker Employee Extension to Breastfeeding Entitlements Policy Template has been created so that you can adapt the policy to your company and employees’ needs.
