Pennsylvania HB1558 mandates baby diaper changing stations in public buildings with restrooms when they are installed or renovated.
HB1558, known as the Baby Diaper Changing Station Accessibility Act, requires the installation of baby diaper changing stations in public buildings with restrooms when a restroom is constructed or renovated. These stations must be accessible, installed regardless of restroom gender designation, and comply with accessibility standards. The Department of Labor enforces the act, with escalating fines for violations. Exemptions can be granted if installation is infeasible, would fail accessibility standards, or threaten historic significance. The act does not allow for private enforcement actions.
