Milk for the Baby

A medical worker alleged that her employer discriminated against her on the basis of her pregnancy when the employer failed to provide the appropriate time and a designated space for the employee to pump breast milk while at work. The parties mediated the complaint and a settlement was reached.  Under the settlement, the employer agreed to pay the employee $1,500 and agreed to immediately provide the time, as well as a designated space, for the employee to pump breast milk while at work. The employer also agreed to update their policy on this matter.
