Hello Netters. This is also correct in IL. I know that employees get 2 paid
10min. breaks, if they work 8 hrs.. I know that because when I set up
Medela's Sanvita, lactation program, I wanted to make sure they got all the
time that was permitted by law. In fact, I cheated alittle bit and the
Medela employees get 2-15min. pumping breaks and a 1 hr. lunch, pumping
break in the sanvita room, paid. A real motivation to keep these women
pumping. I just wish all corporations would support their breastfeeding and
working mothers.
In regards to the Rush Conference. I have written down that it is April
24-25th with Paula Meier, Rich Schanler, Arman Goldman, and Nancy Hurst.
