Dear Lactnetters:
I need you help (and quickly too!)
As you may remember, I will be attending an international conference on
Women, Work and Breastfeeding sponsored by WABA.
At the conference, I've been asked to facilitate a working group
discussion on supporting worksite lactation programs in the formal
sector (eg. factories, offices, stores, etc.), specifically, "Tax
Incentives and Creative Measures."
If anyone out there knows of special, existing tax breaks that
businesses get when they support their breastfeeding moms, please email
me privately. I already have the provisions in the U.S. Maloney,
legislation -- I'm looking for info from other countries and
states/provinces.
If your area had developed any Creative Measures to reward businesses
for supporting bf moms, that information would be welcome, too. I have
received some information from Lactnetters in the past about
rewards/recognitions done for businesses through World Breastfeeding
Week -- If you've already emailed me, I've gotten your message. If yo
haven't, please tell me your story!
Here's the deadline -- I need your info by Monday, May 25!
Thanks So MUCH! Your input helps this small group of people get a
broader understanding of what really works! We will be developing a
plan of action -- your story can help to change the world!
Thanks in Advance!
