SB 142 relates to HR by requiring what accommodations?

• A. Lactation accommodations in the workplace.
• B. Paid vacation time.
• C. Overtime rules for public sector employees.
• D. Annual performance reviews.

Answer: (A)

Lactation accommodations in the workplace are what SB 142 addresses. The bill requires employers to provide reasonable accommodations for employees who are breastfeeding, so they can express milk during work hours. This typically means access to a private space (not a bathroom) and time during the workday to pump, ensuring privacy and comfort while supporting the employee’s breastfeeding needs. The goal is to help nursing employees balance work and child care without penalty or stigma, aligning with nondiscrimination and family-supportive practices. Paid vacation, overtime rules, and annual performance reviews are separate HR concerns and are not what SB 142 requires.
