[ID] 993 [Interest Areas] Concerned Citizen Lactation Professional Nonprofit Organization Public Health Worker State or Local Government [Comment] Thank you for the opportunity to comment. Every employer should offer lactation support and care just as it offers employee assistance services. Supporting a mother postpartum with lactation care and services provides benefits to the employer as well as the mother. The return of investment includes less sick days taken, more likely to return to work after maternity leave, less health insurance claims for breastfed baby and a greater satisfaction with employment. Providing lactation support is a small and inexpensive way of supporting new mothers and babies to begin a healthy life. [Topic]
