G3400.08 - Rest Period to Express Milk
Rule:
- An employee needing to express milk for her child 18 months of age or younger will be provided a 30 minute unpaid rest period during each four hour work period, to be taken by the employee approximately in the middle of the work period. The employee shall, if feasible, take the rest periods to express milk at the same time as the rest periods or meal periods that are otherwise provided to the employee. To the extent that the break period needed to express milk exceeds the employee’s paid rest period, it is unpaid, although the supervisor may allow the employee to work before or after her normal shift to make up the amount of time used during the unpaid rest periods.
- Unpaid rest periods used by the employee to express milk will be considered paid work time for the purpose of determining an employee’s contribution toward their health insurance premium.
- The District is not required to provide rest periods to express milk if doing so would impose an undue hardship on District operations.
- The employee should provide the supervisor of notice that employee intends to take rest periods to express milk.
- Work units are required to make reasonable efforts to provide a location other than a public restroom or toilet stall close to the employee’s work area for the employee to express milk.
