New Jersey A4704 requires employers to provide accommodations for breastfeeding employees.

New Jersey A4704 amends the "Law Against Discrimination" to clarify protections for breastfeeding employees. The bill mandates that employers provide reasonable accommodations to employees who are breastfeeding, including break time, job restructuring, and modified work schedules. Employers must also provide a private space, other than a restroom, for expressing breast milk. The bill defines "pregnancy or breastfeeding" to include pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding, and related medical conditions.
